Tines

@conduit_design Definitely! Setting up GitHub webhooks in Tines is a breeze, or you can do daily polls against your repos. Here's just a few examples from the Story Library to give some inspiration of what's possible:

Manage GitHub pull requests via Slack
Handle GitHub notifications and notify Slack
Send a customised daily briefing in Slack

These can be easily updated to trigger based on whatever criteria you want and can route to wherever makes sense (Email, MS Teams, Slack, email etc).

@conduit_design 100%, you can even do it for free with our community edition!

You'd set up a scheduled story which fetches the current list of starts using a Github template and check that against the previous run's value.

@eoghanreid Excited to share with the Product Hunt crowd!

@tereza_hurtova From what I've seen with Make is that it is more pre built app to pre built app focused. This is more reminiscent of how If This Than That (IFTTT) worked when I used it and a lot of the times it fell short because the pre built applets didn't do exactly what I wanted. Although Make does offer the ability to customize, I felt it was a lot more convoluted to accomplish. Something that a strictly non coder/programmer background person may not understand quickly/easily. Compared to n8n, I felt that was maybe a little too developer focused in the sense of usability for a no code user. From what I understood, the community/trial edition of n8n is a gitub self-hosting version. That's already pretty daunting for someone just looking to get started building apps. Compared to Tines, the default is a cloud hosted tenant, still maintaining the visual UI builder elements, but with quicker access to custom integrations versus pre-built apps (although Tines does also have a free library of pre-built apps/workflows that can be further customized after import to one's own tenant).

I don't know the features now, but for custom scripting, Make was only javascript which could be limiting for a lot of custom developers looking to build more complex apps. Believe both n8n and Tines support Python. For custom pages, I'm not sure if make/n8n have a custom page action/option, but Tines does, and it allows for ability to create custom forms and/or integrate/create with user interactivity. For example, I have made an entire RPG dungeon crawler game completely within Tines platform. Something I am not sure would currently be possible to replicate in either of the other 2 platforms.

To more directly answer one of your questions "how does Tines differentiate itself for a non-enterprise user or a smaller team": I'm a non enterprise user on a team of 1 (myself) and did not have to jump through hoops to get a self hosted client up and running (and maintained!), and was able to create literally all of my automations (even the full dungeon crawler game) on the community edition of Tines without a paid subscription or entering payment details. It was an easy, no fuss startup that was quick to begin using due to it's no code UI, but also allowed the flexibility of complex design and customizations of workflow for those that do have coding/programming backgrounds.

Thanks @tereza_hurtova! Our platform is designed to be much more fun, flexible and easy to use for everyone, not just technical teams (though they love us too!) - anyone familiar with the process should be able to build and our ease of use means we have the fastest time to value for any workflow automation platform.

For some killer features though, check out the ability to build apps to allow humans interact with workflows in Tines, check out our story copilot to build faster, try workbench that allows you to connect your stack to your LLM, write (or prompt!) and execute code using Run Script, and instantly build your own integrations or templates for all your tools - and these are available on our free-forever, cloud, community edition.

I should also say that, given our DNA, I have a slightly different take - security should be for everyone and we have built everything with that in mind from the ground up, and everyone benefits as every workflow and tenant should be secure, not just large enterprises!

I could also write an essay on what makes us unique and different from a business perspective too but instead, I’ll ask, what are you using n8n/make for today?

@nick_winninger I started using Tines (almost!) a year ago and the simplicity of the UI and process makes such a difference to not feeling overwhelmed at the start of a workflow 💪

@zmiro Thanks for your help making it so intuitive and beautiful at the same time!

@edgarortiz Hard agree! Story copilot has genuinely made me feel so much more confident when building.
