Activepieces Workflow Builds

Open-source Activepieces flows for self-hosted automation.

Overview

What we deliver

We build Activepieces workflows for teams that want self-hosted, open-source automation with control over data and infrastructure.

Activepieces is an open-source automation platform that lets you run flows on your own infrastructure, which suits teams with data residency, compliance, or cost concerns. We help organizations deploy Activepieces, build production flows, and integrate it with the rest of their stack. Our work covers self-hosted setup on cloud or on-premise infrastructure, custom piece development for systems that lack ready connectors, and flow design for sales, marketing, operations, and IT use cases. We follow good practices for secrets management, version control of flow definitions, and environment separation. We also document each flow and train your team to maintain and extend it. When clients want to migrate from Zapier or Make to reduce costs or regain control, we plan and execute the transition with parity in mind. The outcome is a self-owned automation layer that fits your governance requirements.

Client stories

What clients say

"

We were drowning in tier-one tickets about password resets and appointment changes. They built a deflection layer on top of our help desk and kept their agents in the loop for anything sensitive. Volume to humans dropped 58 percent in two months and our patient NPS held steady. The hybrid handoff is the part most vendors get wrong. They did not.

P.M.
"

Holiday season was about to break us. We needed 22 agents in six weeks and our internal hiring pipeline could not move that fast. They staffed it, trained on our tone guide, and ran nesting alongside our senior reps. CSAT actually went up by three points during peak. First Q4 in four years my support lead took her vacation.

FAQ

Frequently asked questions

Quick answers to the questions we hear most.

Can we host Activepieces on our own cloud?
Yes. We deploy on AWS, Azure, GCP, or on-premise using Docker and Postgres, sized to your run volume.
How does it compare to Zapier or Make?
It trades polished UX for self-hosting, no per-task pricing, and open-source extensibility, which suits regulated or high-volume teams.
Can you build custom pieces?
Yes. When a connector does not exist, we build a typed Activepieces piece that your team can use across flows.
Do you support migrations?
Yes. We map existing Zapier or Make scenarios to Activepieces flows, test parity, and switch traffic on an agreed schedule.
Who maintains the platform?
We can run it for you on a retainer, or hand over to your platform team with full documentation and training.

Want automation you own end to end?

We will set up Activepieces and build the flows your team needs without per-task fees or vendor lock-in.
