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.

Supported use cases

Add integrations to an AI product

Let each external user connect accounts and give an agent approved application tools.

Prototype an integration

Build and test authentication, actions, and triggers in the free development environment.

Process an application event

Receive a trigger and run code or connected actions in response.

Limitations

Free access is for development

The current pricing page requires a paid plan to serve real external users in production.

Production is metered

Startup includes a user and usage allowance; additional users and credits increase cost.
