   Render is not needed actually. It's one of the requested installation types from our users, so if you want to deploy to Render you can use 1-click install button. The other installation methods are docker ( https://automatisc

   Thanks! We might build a code step or something similar to write a basic JS function to have a custom action/trigger but not sure when it will happen because our main focus is to allow our users to build automation without writing any

   Thanks! That's also the concerns of companies with compliance policy, which can not share the data easily with external systems.

   It's good to hear that you moved to a self-hosted solution. I can tell the differences between n8n and Automatisch so that you can compare them better. - Automatisch is an open-source software where n8n is fair-code licensed. Therefore

   Thanks for the comment! We have Telegram integration that sends messages to a channel. For others, we're planning to implement them eventually. We gather all integration requests from GitHub discussions ( https://github.com&#

   Thanks! It's not planned for the near future but we might do it because it's a good place to demonstrate what Automatisch is capable of without installing it anywhere.

   Thanks a lot! - It may not differ in the sense of integrations and general functionality. However, the most significant difference is that we aim not only for developers but also general users who may not have programming knowledge. - At th

    Thank you so much! We have actually put so much effort into developer experience, especially for building new integrations. You can check examples using oauth authentication: https://automatisch.io/docs/build-integratio

    I think you can start with what you would like to automate. It might be difficult for individuals to come up with an idea, but companies tend to have manual/recurring tasks which they spend time and money. So those tasks are the potent

    Imho we need to separate the customer base here to think about the adoption. If anyone (people/company) would like to have automation but is also okay with using cloud solutions, it would be too difficult to convince them to use Automa

    Yes, we plan to sell enterprise licenses, but we also have other services, like prioritizing the integrations, as you suggested. The integrations prioritized will be available to all other users, but the companies don't have to wait un
