Integrately alternatives: 5 open-source picks
Integrately costs $29.99/mo — $359.88 a year. These 5 alternatives replace it for $0, led by Activepieces Community Edition, Automatisch and n8n. All 5 are open source. License, stars and last commit checked by hand on 2026-08-29. No trials, no crippled tiers.
A fixed trigger, an action, retries, and enough connectors to retire small Integrately flows.
licenseMIT
runsyour server
installRun one Docker container for personal/testing use, or Docker Compose with PostgreSQL and Redis for production.
enginesAI pieces connect to providers such as OpenAI, Anthropic and Google Gemini using user-supplied credentials.
dataSingle-container mode stores data under ~/.activepieces; production uses PostgreSQL and Redis, with files/logs optionally in S3-compatible storage.
the catch vs IntegratelyActivepieces has fewer one-click prebuilt mappings than Integrately and adds a self-hosted operations burden.
setupRequires Docker; public webhooks need a reachable HTTPS URL, while production also needs PostgreSQL, Redis and managed secrets.

Straightforward app automations without the task counter or the connector sprawl.

runsyour server
installClone the repository and run Docker Compose.
dataApplication and credential data stays on the user's server in PostgreSQL, with Redis for queues/cache; credentials are encrypted.
the catch vs IntegratelyAutomatisch's connector and recipe catalog is much narrower than Integrately's one-click automation library.
setupRequires Docker, PostgreSQL/Redis configuration and secret management; the default sample login must be changed immediately.

- integration catalog, prebuilt recipes, OAuth, schema upkeep, and hosted execution
- thousands of connectors
- maintained OAuth applications
- schema-drift handling
- high-scale durable execution and support

why people still pay for Integrately
People still pay for Integrately because one automation is easy; maintaining hundreds of connectors and making every run recoverable is the business. The recurring cost buys OAuth review, token refresh, webhooks, polling, schemas, retries, idempotency, queues, secrets, rate limits, observability, and upgrades, not just the visible interface. If none of that applies to you, any pick above saves $359.88 a year.
