Overview

Knit is a software integration platform that brings together a Unified API, a workflow-generating agent and managed-auth MCP servers. It best suits SaaS teams, workflow owners and AI engineers whose needs map to one of those products. Its breadth is useful, but the distinct products have separate quotas and price points to weigh.

The Unified API standardizes data models across integrations and supports read/write access and two-way syncs. Its directory spans 194 apps across areas such as HRIS, ATS, CRM, accounting, email and ticketing. The Integrations Agent converts plain-English workflow descriptions into deployable, monitorable integration code; MCP servers give agents managed-auth access to more than 190 apps without customer-managed infrastructure.

Knit is based in Bengaluru, India, and says it began in 2024. It says it does not store end-user data on its servers, encrypts data at rest with AES-256 and in transit with TLS 1.3, and complies with SOC 2, GDPR and ISO 27001. Data processing residency is supported in the US, EU and India.

Key features

Unified API

Normalized models and read/write access can spare B2B SaaS teams from treating each app connection as a separate interface. Two-way sync is valuable when connected products must stay aligned. Capacity is the counterweight: Start Up allows 100K API calls monthly and syncs every 24 hours, while Scale Up raises the allowance to 1M calls and makes sync frequency configurable.

Integrations Agent

Plain-English workflow descriptions become custom integration code that can be deployed and monitored. That makes this the most relevant route for non-technical teams seeking to shape workflows without writing the integration themselves. The free plan’s 15-minute trigger frequency and 200 AI credits monthly are modest boundaries; paid plans increase credits and allow faster triggers.

MCP servers and connectors

The managed-auth MCP approach is aimed at agent engineers who want access to business apps without operating customer-managed infrastructure. The listed app range includes Salesforce, HubSpot, QuickBooks, Workday, BambooHR, Asana, Gmail and Jira. Custom connectors and webhook triggers add options for teams whose workflows need more than a ready-made connection.

Pricing

Knit is freemium, but its pricing is product-specific rather than one ladder covering every use. The free plans are useful for trying a narrow workflow or a small agent connection; quotas on credits, workflows, accounts or API calls make them poor substitutes for sustained production use.

Free (Integrations Agent): Free. Includes 500 usage credits/month, 200 AI credits/month, 3 active workflows, 3 connected accounts, 7-day run history, 15-minute trigger frequency and community support. It is a practical starting point, but the account, workflow and AI-credit ceilings constrain broader use.
Starter (Integrations Agent): 29.00 USD per month, billed $29/mo. Includes 800 usage credits/month, 400 AI credits/month, 10 active workflows, 5 connected accounts, 2 premium apps, 30-day run history, 5-minute trigger frequency and email support. It suits a small team needing faster triggers and more history, though it still caps accounts and workflows.
Free: Free, with 500 usage credits/month, 3 active workflows, 3 connected accounts and 7-day run history. This is the general workflow entry point; it offers less detail on triggers and support than the Integrations Agent free tier.
Starter: 29.00 USD per month, billed billed monthly. It raises the allowance to 800 usage credits/month, 10 active workflows, 5 connected accounts and 30-day run history. It fits modest workflow use, but keeps both connected accounts and active workflows capped.
Professional: 99.00 USD per month, billed billed monthly. It includes 2,200 usage credits/month, unlimited active workflows and connected accounts, and 90-day run history. The higher cost buys room to grow beyond Starter’s account and workflow limits, while usage credits remain finite.
Start Up (Unified API): 499.00 USD per month, billed billed monthly. It provides 100K API calls/month, unlimited data usage, 3 test accounts and 3-day log retention. The 24-hour sync frequency makes it a fit only where daily updates are sufficient.
Scale Up (Unified API): custom pricing. It includes 1M API calls/month, unlimited data usage, 3 test accounts and 30-day log retention, with configurable sync frequency. It suits higher-volume products or those needing more control over sync timing; price must be weighed against that added capacity.
Enterprise (Unified API): custom pricing, with contract-based API calls, unlimited data usage and test accounts, and 90-day log retention. It is the tier for teams needing the largest stated account allowance and longer logs, with usage governed by contract.
Launchpad (MCP Servers): Free. It allows up to 5 servers and 100 API calls/month, including remote MCP servers and the ability to create an MCP server. This is a low-cost way to start, but the call allowance is small.
Individual (MCP Servers): 29.00 USD per month, billed $29/month. It includes 5K API calls/month and unlimited MCP servers, plus chat support. It fits an individual agent engineer moving beyond Launchpad’s call cap.
Launchpad: custom pricing, with up to 5 servers and 100 API calls/month.
Individual: 29.00 USD per month, billed billed monthly, for 5K API calls/month and unlimited MCP servers.

Knit offers a 30-day trial. Support options vary by plan and include community, email, priority, dedicated, Slack and on-call support. No renewal terms or seat limits are stated in these plan terms.

Platforms

Knit lists Android, iOS, web and API platforms. The API is central to the integration product; Android and iOS listings may matter to teams evaluating access across mobile platforms, while web covers browser use.

Who it's for

Knit is strongest for B2B SaaS teams that need normalized, two-way product integrations; non-technical teams that want to describe workflows in plain English; and AI engineering teams building agents that need managed authentication to business apps. It is less compelling for a Unified API buyer that needs frequent syncs at the Start Up tier, or for a workflow team likely to outgrow its free credit and account caps quickly.

Pros and cons

Pro: Three distinct integration approaches cover product APIs, generated workflows and agent access, letting teams choose a route aligned with their work.
Pro: A 194-app directory and managed-auth access to more than 190 apps give teams a broad starting set of business connections.
Pro: Stated encryption, compliance and regional processing options address security and residency needs for teams with those requirements.
Con: Unified API Start Up combines a $499.00 USD monthly price with 24-hour syncs, a constraint for products that need fresher data.
Con: Free workflow tiers cap active workflows and connected accounts, while the free MCP tier allows only 100 API calls/month.
Con: Plan structures and support vary by product, so buyers need to match quotas and support expectations to the specific Knit offering.

Alternatives

API Integration Platforms and Integration Platform as a Service Software are useful category comparisons for teams weighing integration approaches.

Windmill is worth considering when its free and open-source plan, self-hosting and support for Linux and Windows matter alongside API and web access.
Celigo may suit teams whose needs fit its free plan of 2 endpoints, 1 flow and 1 production environment, or its separately priced tiers.
Apache NiFi is a sensible alternative for teams seeking free software under the Apache License, with self-hosted support across major desktop and server platforms.
Google Cloud Application Integration may fit teams comfortable with its free-tier limits of up to 400 integration executions and 20 GiB processed monthly.
Oracle Integration is another option for buyers comparing paid integration plans with trial access.
WSO2 Integrator may suit teams evaluating a paid product with a 30-day free trial and a stated trial allowance of up to 1M transactions.
Nango is worth comparing for teams that want a freemium API integration option, self-hosting or its free allowance of 10 connections.
Workato Agent Studio is an alternative for teams considering agent capabilities, with a free plan and a Pro tier priced at 75.00 USD per month.

Verdict

Choose Knit when a SaaS product needs normalized integrations, a team wants to turn workflow descriptions into deployable code, or agent engineers need managed-auth app access. Its range of integration paths is the main reason to shortlist it. Look elsewhere if daily syncs are too slow for a Unified API launch or if the required workflow or MCP usage quickly exceeds the free quotas; paid costs and limits differ materially by product.
