## The answer, as recorded

The catch is cost: Free is 100 tasks/month, Professional is $19.99/mo for 750 tasks, Team is $69/mo for 2,000 tasks across 25 users - and a "task" is every single action, so multi-step workflows burn through allowance fast.

> **2. Make** (formerly Integromat) - pick this instead of Zapier if your workflows are complex or high-volume. Visual canvas, much better at data transformation (loops, arrays, branching), and operation-based billing works out several times cheaper per unit of work. Core starts around $9-10/mo for 10,000 operations. Steeper learning curve than Zapier, so it rewards having one person who owns automations.

> **3. n8n** - the right answer if you handle sensitive data or have someone technical. It bills per *workflow execution* rather than
