We file it under Workflow automation, the category of tools to automate tasks between apps, and it also overlaps with aI agent builders. The category lists 11 verified tools on this site.
The publisher is Celonis s.r.o., based in Czechia. The service launched in 2022, which gives it some track record.
Who is it for?
It is mostly useful to these profiles: developers, project managers, marketers, and small business owners. The need it covers is simple to state: automate tasks between apps.
Make is a good candidate if:
- you want to try before paying
- you plan to connect it to your tools or automations through its API
The best test is a concrete case from your daily work: if the tool does not beat your current method within a week, move on to an alternative.
How much does Make cost?
Pricing model: freemium (limited free use, then paid). A free plan is offered, usually limited in volume or features.
The entry price is not shown publicly: you have to contact the publisher or create an account to see it.
To estimate what the same work would cost done directly with an AI model, use our API price calculator. Prices change often: always check the official site before subscribing.
Data and privacy
According to its privacy policy, data is processed in several regions depending on the plan.
Exporting your content: yes (details on the official site). Being able to get your data back makes switching tools easier later.
Three habits apply to every AI tool:
- turn off the use of your content for training if the option exists
- use a work account separate from your personal account
- review everything the tool produces before publishing or sending it
Platforms, languages and API
Make runs on: web browser and API.
Interface languages: English.
A public API lets you call it from your own programs or an automation tool, and plug it into an AI agent.
