Pipedream
Developer platform for connecting APIs and automation
- Automation & agents · editorial fit

Overview
Pipedream is an integration layer for applications and AI agents, providing managed authentication, thousands of connectors, prebuilt actions and triggers, APIs, SDKs, and MCP access. Developers use it to let their product or agent connect to user accounts without implementing every OAuth flow and integration independently.
Development and testing are free without a card. Moving integrations or agents into production for external users requires a paid Startup or Business plan, with charges tied to users and usage credits.
