About Make
What it is
Make is a visual automation platform. You build workflows by connecting modules on a canvas, with branches, loops, filters and error handling laid out as a diagram you can see and step through.
Why it's different
The canvas is the point: for anything with more than a couple of steps, seeing the whole flow beats reading a list, and it handles branching and iteration far more comfortably than simpler tools. It is generally cheaper per operation than the obvious alternative. The price is a steeper start. A first workflow takes longer to build here, and its integration catalogue, while large, is not the largest.
How people use it
Multi-step processes with conditions, like routing an enquiry differently depending on what it contains. Anything that loops over a list of records. Moving data between systems with transformation in the middle. Build the unhappy paths as you go, because a flow that silently fails at three in the morning is worse than no automation at all.
Step by step
- Sketch the flow on the canvas before connecting anything, because seeing the shape is the reason to choose Make over a linear tool.
- Run one module at a time with the inspector open. Every module shows its input and output, which is the fastest debugging in this category.
- Add error handlers as you build, not at the end. A flow that fails silently at three in the morning is worse than no automation.
- Use an iterator rather than duplicating modules when you are processing a list — that is what the canvas is for.
- Watch operations rather than runs. One execution over a hundred records is a hundred operations, and that is what you are billed for.
