Migration notes

Visual trigger/step workflow model overlaps; rebuild incumbent automations and verify every integration/action. MIT Community paid-feature boundaries unresolved; no automatic Zap/Make import verified.

What you may give up

  • Commercial cloud/on-prem plans gate projects, shared global connections, Git releases and governance; exact boundaries of MIT Community Edition still need confirmation.

Tier U: Core outside packages/ee and server API ee paths is MIT; enterprise paths use a different license. Official installation distinguishes Community from EE; current pricing combines cloud/on-prem paid plans without an unambiguous MIT Community matrix. Do not impose hosted credit/BYO-key limits on MIT source without verification. Commercial use/hosting of MIT core permitted; enterprise embedding requires separate terms. License source

What running it takes

  • Activepieces application and worker

Hover or focus an icon for its name. Dashed means not established; struck through means no; grouped icons are alternatives.

Production default is PostgreSQL+Redis+app+worker. PGLite/memory route is explicitly hobby-only. Railway optional-memory wording is narrower than recommended production Compose. Infrastructure and staff time are not priced here; this page does not compare total cost.
