More powerful than Zapier for complex workflows — branching, loops, error handling. The visual builder makes complex logic readable. Great for non-trivial automation.

Reality Check

Ship

Steeper learning curve than Zapier but the ceiling is much higher. If your automation needs are simple, Zapier is easier. If they're complex, Make is better.
