Make vs Activepieces — pricing & features compared

Make vs Activepieces logo

Activepieces

Activepieces runs this at $0 (free up to 10 active flows with unlimited runs), while Make starts low and rises modestly with volume. The trade-off: Activepieces is open-source and self-hostable but free only up to 10 active flows; Make has the larger catalog (3,000+ vs about 750) and a more mature cloud. Pick by catalog coverage first — at these prices, cost is the tiebreaker, not the decider. See the price table for figures.
