Which AI model you prefer or use the most for your automation flow

depends heavily on what "automation" means to you. for pure API-call orchestration (webhooks, data pipelines, scheduled jobs) I lean toward whatever's cheapest and fast enough since the task rarely needs real reasoning. for anything where the workflow has to make judgment calls mid-run - deciding how to handle an edge case, writing something a human will read - that's where the model quality actually shows up and it's worth paying for the better one. what's your automation flow actually doing?

I like Zapier or gumloop
