In their own words
Bardeen
Bardeen automates repetitive work and manages data across tools for go-to-market teams. The web and browser-extension platform supports multi-step workflows, website scraping with export to other tools or CSV, web searches for leads and other information, and lead enrichment with validated phone numbers and email addresses. Its AI tools can qualify leads and generate content automatically. Named integrations include Google Sheets, Airtable, Notion, Salesforce, HubSpot, Pipedrive and Apollo.io. The free plan provides 100 credits per billing period, and unused credits expire when that period ends. Each scraper, web-search or AI-tool row uses one credit; enrichment rows use three, while utilities are free. Basic costs $10 a month for 100 credits, and Premium costs $50 a month for 1,000 credits. Bardeen says connected app data stays in local browser storage rather than its cloud servers, except for its enterprise Workflow Intelligence Platform. That platform is an enterprise-only feature for the highest subscription tier.
Windmill
Windmill is an open-source workflow engine and developer platform for building endpoints, workflows and user interfaces. It is aimed at teams making internal software across engineering, data, sales, support and marketing. Scripts can be written in TypeScript, Python, Go, PHP, Bash, C#, SQL, Rust, Ruby and R, among other languages. Windmill combines a script editor, low-code flow builder, and low-code, React or Svelte app builders. Scripts and flows can be triggered by webhooks, schedules, HTTP routes, queues or an open API. Its Hub lists more than 200 resource types, including GitHub, Slack, AWS, BigQuery and PostgreSQL; users can also define custom resource types with schemas. Local development through the CLI and Git sync support version control and deployment workflows. Self-hosting is supported. The free and open-source plan is free and includes three workspaces, 50 users, 10 GiB of workspace object storage and 100 guest app users per 30 days. Enterprise is $120 a month and includes a month-long trial. Enterprise features include granular permissions, RBAC, secret management, OAuth, SSO and audit logs.
