Open-ended automation

ThinkAutomation is a unique automation tool in terms of scale and flexibility. It comes to you as an open-ended workshop from which you can build out any workflow imaginable. But how does it stack up as a Zapier alternative?

Stop paying for "Zaps"

ThinkAutomation doesn’t apply boundaries to how much you can automate. There’s no flat “Zap” allowance per month, and no volume limitations for data handling. You get:

Automation Uncapped Workflows
Automation Uncapped Data Processing
Automation Uncapped Integrations
ThinkAutomation vs Zapier

More coverage, less cost

So, how much does ThinkAutomation cost? Like Zapier, we’re transparent about pricing. Unlike Zapier, we don’t charge per-process. Our standard edition comes in at: £3000 per year

That covers you for unlimited feature access, unlimited data sources, unlimited data volumes, and unlimited automated actions.
