Modern authentication platform positioned as the alternative to Auth0 for React and Next.js developers. Distinctive for pre-built UI components (SignIn/SignUp forms) that install in one line — you don't build auth UI from scratch. Free tier bumped to 50K MAU in Feb 2026 (industry-leading). Pro $25/mo includes 1 SSO connection (WorkOS charges $125/mo for the same). Business $300/mo. Popular with Series A/B React startups.
Visual workflow automation (formerly Integromat), positioned as the power-user alternative to Zapier. Distinctive for its visual scenario builder that handles complex multi-branch logic Zapier can't. Priced per operation with 1,000 free ops/month. Popular with developers, ops teams, and agencies who hit Zapier's complexity ceiling. Growing share from Zapier and losing some to n8n (self-hostable) as low-code automation splinters into three tiers by user sophistication.
