Activepieces

Activepieces is a low-code workflow automation platform for building integrations between apps and internal systems. It lets you create trigger-based flows, run multi-step automations, and connect services using a visual builder and reusable integration modules (“pieces”).

Key Features

• Visual flow builder for creating multi-step automations with branching and logic
• Large and growing catalog of reusable integration “pieces” (connectors) plus custom pieces
• Webhook and scheduled triggers for event-driven and time-based automations
• Support for common workflow actions such as HTTP requests, data mapping, and transformations
• Credentials/connections management for authenticating to third-party services
• Runs as a server application with a web UI for designing, testing, and monitoring flows

Use Cases

• Automate business processes (e.g., lead intake → CRM updates → notifications)
• Integrate internal tools with SaaS systems via webhooks and API calls
• Build lightweight event-driven automations for ops tasks and alert routing

Limitations and Considerations

• Connector coverage and parity varies by “piece”; niche integrations may require building custom pieces
• Advanced governance features (e.g., enterprise-grade policy controls) may be limited compared to large commercial iPaaS tools

Activepieces is a solid fit for teams that want an automation builder similar to Zapier/Make but with control over deployments and the ability to extend integrations. Its modular “pieces” approach makes it practical for both quick automations and custom integration development.
