Side-by-side comparison of AI visibility scores, market position, and capabilities
SF open-source AI-first workflow automation at $1.7M ARR Dec 2024 with 450+ integrations and self-hosted option; YC $1.55M competing with Zapier and n8n for compliance-conscious teams needing MCP/Claude/GPT-4 automation pipelines.
Activepieces is a San Francisco-based open-source workflow automation platform — backed by Y Combinator with $1.55 million raised from ByTheTower, Forward VC, Fundamental VC, Kima Ventures, and Soma Capital in November 2024 — providing teams with an AI-first business process automation alternative to Zapier, Make.com, and Workato through a self-hostable, MIT-licensed platform with 450+ integrations, native AI agent support (GPT-4, Claude, Model Context Protocol), and a managed cloud version. Founded in 2022 and reaching $1.7 million in annual revenue by December 2024 with a team of 11-19 employees, Activepieces has differentiated through its open-source model — allowing companies with data compliance requirements (GDPR, HIPAA, SOC 2) to run the entire automation infrastructure on their own servers rather than routing sensitive data through third-party SaaS automation platforms.
Adept AI raised $415M to pioneer computer-use AI agents; its core research and agent team moved to Amazon in 2024 in a landmark talent acquisition while the company continues developing ACT-1 for enterprise automation.
Adept AI was founded in 2022 by a team of former OpenAI, DeepMind, and Google Brain researchers to build AI that can take actions on computers — navigating software interfaces, filling forms, and executing multi-step workflows in any application. Its ACT-1 model demonstrated the ability to control web browsers and desktop applications through natural language instructions, pioneering the computer-use agent paradigm that Anthropic later commercialized with Claude's computer use feature.
