The short answer

  • Zapier : Zapier's MCP exposes its app actions to AI assistants, with a free plan of 100 tasks a month. From $19.99/mo
  • n8n : n8n is a workflow builder you can self-host, for agent workflows you design step by step. From €20/mo
  • Make : Make builds visual multi-step automations across thousands of apps. From $12/mo

Why people look past Composio

Its LinkedIn tools run on LinkedIn's official API, so they post and read your own analytics but cannot search people or send messages. Past the free allowance, tool calls and triggers are metered, and some actions add small add-on charges.

What we noted

  • LinkedIn tools cover posting, not outreach
  • Usage billing past the free tier
  • Setup is more technical than Zapier

Not the right fit for

  • Recruiters who need LinkedIn messaging or search
  • Non-technical users who want ready workflows
  • Teams that want flat, unmetered pricing

Worth keeping in mind: One managed MCP endpoint can give an agent authorized access to Gmail, Slack, an ATS and LinkedIn at once, with Composio holding and refreshing every token.

What each one does differently

Zapier

$19.99/mo Free tier 14 day free trial MCP API

Why it comes up: Zapier's MCP exposes its app actions to AI assistants, with a free plan of 100 tasks a month.

Stands out: Zapier MCP is on every plan, including Free, and connects AI assistants to the same 9,000-app catalog.

Watch out: Each MCP tool call uses two tasks. Free Zaps are limited to two steps, and Professional is a single-user plan.

Best for

  • Ops teams connecting SaaS apps without code
  • People who want Claude or ChatGPT to act in Gmail and Slack
  • Solo users who fit on one Professional seat

n8n

€20/mo Free tier Free trial MCP API

Why it comes up: n8n is a workflow builder you can self-host, for agent workflows you design step by step.

Stands out: Billing counts full workflow executions, not individual steps, and the Community edition is free to self-host.

Watch out: Cloud prices are published in euros only. The Cloud trial is capped at 1,000 executions, and unused AI Assistant credits do not roll over.

Best for

  • Technical teams that want to self-host for free
  • Builders who prefer per-execution billing
  • Teams that want to drive workflows from Claude via MCP

Make

$12/mo Free tier MCP API

Why it comes up: Make builds visual multi-step automations across thousands of apps.

Stands out: Make's drag and drop canvas shows every branch, router and iterator of a scenario, with real time run monitoring, which suits complex multi branch automations better than linear step lists. Greenhouse and Workday are among its enterprise apps.

Watch out: Every module action uses a credit, including reads, searches and iterations, so polling scenarios and loops burn credits fast. The Free plan allows only two active scenarios and a 15 minute minimum interval, and enterprise apps are reserved for the top tier.

Best for

  • Ops builders who think in flowcharts
  • Scenarios with many branches, loops and error handling
  • Teams that want AI agents and MCP inside their automations
