Ask HN: What are some cheap/self-hosted alternatives to Zapier?

3 points by swapagarwal 9y ago ↗ HN

Zapier's free plan only allows 100 tasks/month. The next tier starts at $20 per month with 1000 tasks/month. Are there any other cheap/self-hosted alternatives to Zapier? I'm looking for only some basic integrations (trigger-based actions).

Integrations can be a lot of work. So $20 for 1000 tasks sounds pretty inexpensive.

If you want a lower monthly cost you'll need to roll your own basic integrations.

My favorite tool for finding software alternatives is alternativeto.net, which returns these alternatives for Zapier: https://alternativeto.net/software/zapier/

Most promising on that list is Huginn (https://github.com/huginn/huginn) which looks like exactly what you want.
