What it is

Pipedream is an integration layer for AI agents, available through an API and web workflows. It provides managed authentication and tools across thousands of APIs. Workflows can connect services with JavaScript or Python code, or with no-code drag-and-drop steps. The Apps catalog lists 3,223 apps and 14,957 registry tools. Integrations include prebuilt actions that write to APIs and triggers that stream events to applications in real time. Pipedream Connect adds MCP tools and a proxy that sends API requests with users’ credentials attached. Hosted OAuth flows, encrypted credential storage, automatic refresh, and project-level credential scoping are listed. Each action, MCP call, proxy request, or deployed trigger event uses one credit per 30 seconds of compute. The Free plan costs nothing, requires no card, and includes development features, connectors, tools, unlimited team members, and community support, but excludes production use and usage credits. Startup costs $99 a month annually or $150 a month monthly.
