Make
Visual automation platform with advanced data transformation, branching logic, and a powerful free tier — the developer-friendly Zapier alternative.
What is Make?
Make (formerly Integromat) is a visual automation platform that lets you design, build, and automate workflows by connecting apps and services. Unlike Zapier’s linear approach, Make uses a visual canvas where you can create complex branching workflows with advanced data transformation — making it popular with developers and power users who need more control.
Key Features
- Visual scenario builder — canvas-based editor with drag-and-drop modules and branching paths
- Advanced data handling — built-in functions for parsing, transforming, and routing data
- Operations-based pricing — pay per operation rather than per task, often cheaper at scale
- Error handling — built-in retry logic, error routes, and break/continue patterns
- 1,800+ integrations — growing ecosystem with custom HTTP/webhook modules
- Data stores — built-in key-value storage for maintaining state across runs
Who is it for?
Make is ideal for developers and technical teams who want Zapier-level connectivity with more control over data flow and error handling. Its operations-based pricing makes it significantly cheaper for high-volume automations. Less suitable for non-technical users who prefer Zapier’s simpler interface.
Pricing
Free tier includes 1,000 operations/month. Core plan starts at $9/month with 10,000 operations. Pro ($16/mo) adds priority execution and custom variables.
