Alternatives to Make
Visual scenario builder (ex-Integromat)
Make ranks #4 of 8 in Workflow automation, with an Alt Score of 81. It is proprietary, freemium from $9/month (Core) and available on the web. 12 of 12 checklist rows are verified against a public source.
Ops, marketing, sales, and IT teams (from solo founders to enterprises) who need to connect apps and automate multi-step processes without writing code.
A visual canvas for building 'scenarios' that connect thousands of apps and APIs via triggers, actions, and data transformations. Supports branching logic, loops, error handling, and scheduling for complex multi-step automations, not just simple one-to-one triggers. Includes built-in modules for HTTP requests, webhooks, and custom apps, plus AI/LLM integrations for agent-style workflows.
You drag modules onto a canvas to define a trigger and a sequence of connected steps, mapping data fields between them; the scenario then runs automatically on a schedule, webhook, or manual trigger, and you can monitor each run's execution history for errors.
