Make vs Lindy

Make beats Lindy 8.1 to 7.1 on our four-agent test panel, winning 4 of 4 agents head to head. Make: free tier; paid from $10/mo. Lindy: free tier available. Facts last verified November 1, 2026.

What actually differs

Make is a visual automation builder: you lay out a scenario on a canvas, module by module, connecting apps with routers, filters and data mapping. AI is one kind of step among thousands of app actions, and you decide exactly what happens in what order.

Lindy starts from the agent instead of the flowchart. You describe in plain language what an assistant should do (triage the inbox, book meetings, follow up with leads), connect the apps it may use, and it works out the steps itself. Less to wire by hand, less control over each step.

  • Pick Make if you want precise, inspectable workflows across many apps and don't mind building them step by step.
  • Pick Lindy if you'd rather describe a job to an AI assistant than draw the workflow yourself.
