About Make
Make (formerly Integromat) is a visual automation platform where you build workflows — called scenarios — by dragging modules onto a canvas and wiring together 3,000+ apps. It suits marketers, ops teams, and no-coders who want more power per dollar than Zapier, and its Make AI Agents (beta) can plan and execute actions across those same apps. The free plan includes 1,000 credits/month with no card required; Core starts at $12/month ($10.59/month billed annually) for 10,000 credits.

Best for
Pros
- Far cheaper per automation step than Zapier — 10,000 credits for $10.59/mo vs 750 tasks for $19.99/mo
- Visual canvas handles branching and complex logic that linear Zap-style builders can't
- Usable free plan with 1,000 credits/month, no card required
- AI agents included on all plans, with your own LLM key or Make's provider
Cons
- Steeper learning curve than Zapier — routers, iterators, and mappings take practice
- The 2025 switch from operations to credits made AI-heavy scenarios cost more than the old math suggested
- Support quality is a recurring complaint — Trustpilot sits at 2.1
- Fewer app integrations than Zapier's 9,000+
Our verdict
Best for: Ops-minded builders who want complex, branching automations at a fraction of Zapier's per-task price.
Skip if: You want the fastest possible first automation or an app Make doesn't cover — Zapier's library is three times larger.
Our review
Editorial score: 4.4 out of 5Make's pitch has always been power-per-dollar, and it still lands: $10.59/month buys 10,000 credits, while Zapier's $19.99 entry plan covers 750 tasks. The scenario canvas is the other half of the appeal — routers, iterators, and error handlers let you build genuinely complex logic visually, where Zapier's linear editor runs out of road. The 2025-26 AI push (Make AI Agents, MCP server, bring-your-own-LLM) has been more thoughtful than most, with agents available even on the free plan.
The trade-offs are real. Make takes hours to learn what Zapier teaches in minutes, and the mid-2025 move from operations to credits quietly repriced AI-heavy workflows. Support is the loudest complaint — the 2.1 Trustpilot score is dominated by unanswered tickets and billing friction, a sharp contrast with its 4.8 on Capterra.
Against n8n, Make is the no-code sibling: easier to start, less flexible at the extremes, and with no self-hosting option for teams that want data on their own infrastructure.
Verdict: the best value in visual automation for anyone willing to climb a moderate learning curve. Choose Zapier for breadth and speed-to-first-Zap, n8n for code-level control — Make for everything in between.
What reviewers elsewhere say
78% positive — Praised for pricing flexibility and the depth of the visual builder; complaints target support quality and the 2025 operations-to-credits switch.

What you give it access to

- Email and calendar
What to watch for
- Operation cost multiplies with scenario complexity and trigger frequency
- A scenario that loops can burn a monthly allowance quickly
- Holds credentials for every connected app so it can run unattended
How it bills
Credits. One task here means one scenario run, billed by the operations its modules perform. Billed in operations — roughly one per module step — so a scenario touching ten modules spends ten operations every time it fires.
Agent capabilities checked August 2026. Not hands-on tested — these are the vendor's documented capabilities, read carefully. Limits and permissions change between checks, so confirm approval settings and any spending cap before you connect an account. Compare every AI agent.
