Make

Visual automation with branching scenarios

Make is a workflow automation tool for Small businesses and Agencies, offered as freemium. Founded in 2012. Popular alternatives include n8n, Microsoft Power Automate, Zapier.

About Make

Make, formerly Integromat, is a visual automation platform founded in Prague in the Czech Republic. Celonis acquired Integromat in 2020 and relaunched it as Make in 2022. Its core job is connecting apps and automating multi-step processes, with a visual canvas that handles complex logic better than linear automation tools.

Scenarios are built as flowcharts: modules for each app action are connected by routes, with routers for branching, iterators and aggregators for working with lists, filters, data transformation functions and error handlers for retries and fallbacks. Make supports more than 2,000 apps plus generic HTTP, webhooks and JSON tools for anything with an API, along with AI modules for OpenAI, Anthropic Claude and other providers. Make AI Agents, introduced in 2025, add goal-driven agents that decide which tools to use. Since August 2025 pricing is based on credits instead of operations: most module runs use one credit, AI modules can use more. Plans from the free tier up to Enterprise add more credits, shorter scheduling intervals, team roles and security features.

Make fits operations teams, agencies and technical marketers who build complex, high-volume automations and want them to cost less than on Zapier. The visual approach has a steeper learning curve, and credit consumption needs monitoring as scenarios grow, especially with AI modules. Zapier is easier for simple automations and has more app integrations, n8n is open source and self-hostable for developers, and Power Automate suits Microsoft-centric organizations.
