No Code Is Too Rigid. Custom Dev Is Too Slow and Too Expensive.

Your Zapier workflows can't handle the custom logic you need. A developer quoted you $15,000 and six weeks for what should be a simple integration. You're stuck between platforms that won't let you write a single line of code and developers who want to build everything from scratch. Pipedream sits in that gap.

A visual builder where every step can drop into real Node.js or Python when it needs to, with a credit based pricing model that doesn't charge per task.

Visual Workflows with Code Where It Counts

Pipedream gives you pre built connectors for standard integrations and real code steps for anything custom. We build workflows that use the simplest approach for each step. No unnecessary complexity, no artificial limits.

Audit

We scope your integration requirements

We review your current tools, data flows, and the specific integrations that no code platforms couldn't handle. The output is a technical spec for every workflow, with clear recommendations on which steps need code and which don't.

Includes an API compatibility check for all connected services.

Build

We build hybrid workflows in Pipedream

Each workflow uses native connectors where they exist and custom code steps where they don't. Every code step is documented, tested, and written to be readable by your team or any future developer. We work within Pipedream's 12.5 minute execution limit and design around it for longer running processes.

Average build time: 5 to 12 business days depending on custom code requirements.

Launch

We deploy, validate, and hand over everything

Workflows go live against production data. We monitor for 30 days, handle edge cases that surface, and deliver complete documentation including inline code comments. Your team or a future developer can pick up where we left off. You own the code and the Pipedream account.

All code is version controlled and documented. Nothing is a black box.

Fifteen hours a week. That’s what we were losing to copying data between our CRM and our accounting software. Koray built an automation, and it dropped to zero.

Sarah Mitchell Director, Mitchel and Co

Two hours a day, every day, moving data between our practice management system and Xero. Koray fixed it in a week.

James Whitfield Operations Manager , Meridian Legal

It just runs. I keep waiting for it to break, and it doesn’t.

Sarah Nguyen Director, Bayside Financial Planning

I was sceptical. Construction isn’t exactly a software industry but we were losing quotes because we weren’t following up fast enough

Tom Hargreaves Founder, Structura Constructions

Koray set the whole thing up, walked us through it, and then it just worked.

Priya Kapoor Practice Manager, Greenwood Medical Centre

Every enquiry gets a response in minutes and lands in the right pipeline automatically.

Daniel Costa Sales Manager, Atlas Property Group

Tax season used to mean late nights moving client data between systems. This year, we didn’t do any of that.

FAQs

Technical questions, plain answers.

Book your free audit
Do I need developers on my team to use Pipedream?

We build everything. The visual interface is accessible to non technical users for monitoring and basic edits. Modifying code steps takes some technical comfort, but we document every line so a future developer (or us on retainer) can maintain it without guessing.

How does Pipedream pricing work?

Pipedream uses a credit based model. The free tier gives you 3 active workflows and 100 credits per day. Paid plans start at US$29 per month with higher limits. Unlike Zapier, Pipedream doesn't charge per step inside a workflow, which makes complex multi step automations significantly cheaper to run.

What languages does Pipedream support?

Node.js (JavaScript and TypeScript) and Python. Both are widely supported and easy to hire for if you ever want in house development later. We default to Node.js unless your team has a Python preference.

Is Pipedream suitable for production workloads?

Pipedream processes billions of events per month and was recently acquired by Workday. It includes built in error handling, retry logic, and event queuing. There's a 12.5 minute execution limit per workflow run, so for longer processes we design multi step chains. For business critical workflows, we add monitoring and alerting as standard.

Can Pipedream replace my current Zapier setup?

In most cases, especially if your Zaps are hitting limits or costing too much. We audit your existing workflows and rebuild them in Pipedream with code steps where needed. Simple Zaps that work fine may not benefit from the switch, and we'll tell you which ones to leave alone.

What about the new AI Agent Builder in Pipedream?

Pipedream recently added an AI Agent Builder feature. It's useful for certain workflows, but it's still early. We'll recommend it where it genuinely fits and build with conventional logic where it doesn't. We're not going to bolt AI onto a workflow that works better without it.

What if Pipedream isn't the right fit for my business?

We'll tell you. We work across multiple platforms including Zapier, Make, n8n, and Power Automate. If your needs are better served by something else, we recommend that instead. The audit identifies the right tool, not just the one on this page.
