Active

Open-source workflow automation with credit-based cloud pricing

Conditional

A promising open-source alternative to Zapier with strong developer experience, but the integration library and community are still maturing.

AI-Powered

Each piece fires as an isolated step; output is relayed step to step, never held in one AI context — AI is a node in the pipeline.

Is it right for you?

Good for

  • Self-hosted workflow automation with a clean UI
  • Teams that want to write custom integrations in TypeScript
  • Startups looking for an open-source Zapier alternative
  • Version-controlled automation workflows
  • Teams that value developer experience

Not good for

  • Teams needing a large library of pre-built integrations immediately
  • Complex enterprise workflows with advanced governance
  • AI-native agent workflows (limited AI integration)
  • Non-technical teams with no developer support
