Gumloop current baseline
Gumloop is a no-code/low-code platform for building AI-driven workflow automations and agents, aimed at operational teams (GTM, marketing, support, recruiting) rather than only engineers.
- Visual, drag-and-drop workflow builder with 100+ pre-built nodes and integrations
- AI agent builder that orchestrates tools to complete multi-step tasks
- Multi-model support (Claude, OpenAI, Gemini, DeepSeek) with no single-vendor lock-in
- Recurring task scheduling and background/unattended execution
- Deployment of agents to Slack, Teams, Gmail, WhatsApp, or email
- Published starting point
- $37/mo (Pro)
- Setup
- 30m setup assessment
- Developer access
- API documentation, MCP documentation
When to replace Gumloop
There is no visible free-forever plan: the published entry point is the Pro plan at $37/month with a 14-day trial, so teams wanting to prototype indefinitely at zero cost need to look elsewhere. API and OAuth key generation are gated behind Pro or above per the docs, so a team wanting only programmatic/API access without the visual builder still pays for the full product. Pricing is credit-metered (20k+ credits/month on Pro) rather than flat-rate, which makes cost hard to predict for heavy, high-volume automation workloads without contacting sales for Enterprise.
