Is Make worth the price?
Make is the best value in workflow automation for most teams.
At ~$0.001/operation, a team running 50 workflows (100 executions/day) pays just $18.82/mo on the Pro plan. The catch: Make counts every module (including triggers, routers, and filters) as a separate operation, so a 4-module scenario uses 4 operations per run -- not 1.
AI modules cost 2-50x more credits than standard ones. Data transfer and execution time limits can pause scenarios on lower plans.
Despite these gotchas, Make delivers 10-15x more automation per dollar than Zapier.
Hidden Costs & Gotchas
Every module counts as 1 credit -- triggers, filters, routers, and actions all consume credits (only error handlers and Router modules are free)
AI modules cost 2-50 credits each
a Transcribe Audio module costs ~50 credits per run
Data transfer limits
Free 512MB/mo, Core 5GB per 10K ops, Pro 5GB per 10K ops. Scenarios pause when you hit the cap
Execution time limits
Free 5 min/run, Core 40 min, Pro 40 min. Long-running scenarios get terminated
File size limits
Free 5MB, Core 100MB, Pro 250MB, Teams 500MB, Enterprise 1GB
Overage charges at ~25-30% above base rate -- scenarios keep running past your limit and you get billed
Failed operations still count toward your quota
Free plan
only 2 active scenarios and 15-min minimum interval
Make Code App execution costs 2 credits per second (Enterprise only)
