Details
IFTTT (If This Then That) lets you create simple automations between apps, devices, and services. It is especially strong for smart home and IoT use cases, connecting devices like Philips Hue, Ring, and Google Home. The free plan supports up to 5 applets with single trigger-action pairs, while Pro ($2.99/mo) and Pro+ ($8.99/mo) unlock multi-step applets, faster execution, and filter code.
Make (formerly Integromat) is automation for people who outgrow Zapier. The visual workflow builder lets you do branching, loops, error handling (stuff that’s painful elsewhere). Founded in Czechia by Ondřej Gazda, bootstrapped to 250k+ customers before being acquired by Celonis for $100M+.
