Rerun vs Zapier
App-to-app automationA Zap moves data between apps. A Rerun agent sorts the inbox, answers the lead and chases the invoice.
Read the comparisonMake builds automations as visual scenarios, one module at a time. Rerun gives you AI agents that take the goal and handle the steps themselves.
Last reviewed , against each product’s public pricing and docs.
Pick Make when you want precise control over branching and data mapping on a canvas, and a credit price per action that is hard to beat at volume. Pick Rerun when the work needs judgment and you would rather not rebuild a scenario each time an input changes. Rerun is a flat $29 a month, with no credit spent per module.
Side by side
A Make scenario passes data from module to module. A Rerun agent answers the lead, chases the invoice and learns from your corrections.
Key differences
Four differences that change your day to day, shown on the real product.
A Make scenario is a chain of modules you place and map, even when its AI assistant drafts the first one, and an AI agent you add decides inside the scenario you built around it. A Rerun agent gets a job description, signs in to Gmail, Notion or Stripe, reaches 3,000+ apps and any MCP server, and plans the whole job itself.
In Make, anything a scenario should remember goes into a data store you design. Rerun agents keep memory, files and databases on their machine, and read one company brain with your offer and your tone, so they learn that this client always pays late without you adding a filter.
## Procedure
1. Pull unpaid invoices from Stripe daily
2. Send a first reminder on day 7 past due
3. Escalate to the account owner after 2 tries
4. Log every touch in the CRM thread
## Exceptions
- Never chase an invoice under $50
- Read references/tone.md before escalating
## Billing
- Pays around day 30, sometimes later
- A PO number is required on every invoice
- Invoices go to ap@acme.co, not to Dana
## People
- Dana Reyes runs ops, answers within a day
- Escalations go through their COO
## Voice
- English, formal, no emoji
- Sign off as the founder, not an assistant
- Keep it under 120 words
## Timing
- Follow up twice, then stop
- Send whenever the draft is ready
In Make, everything happens inside the modules you place, and nothing survives the run. A Rerun agent works on your workspace’s private machine: it writes files, runs scripts, drives a browser, uses an app on screen like a person, and keeps its own databases between runs.
Make spends a credit on every module action by default, bills some features on the tokens, the file size or the run time, and its AI agent’s chat spends credits too, so loops add up. Rerun is one plan from $29 a month, and runs are never counted.

Switching
No migration project. Start with the one task that costs you the most, and let it prove itself.
Write down what it should achieve in one or two sentences. That is the whole setup.
A sign-in for Gmail, Sheets or Notion, a token for the ones that ask for one. Run it on our AI, your own ChatGPT or Claude plan, or an API key.
Put the agent on the same schedule or trigger, compare a week of results, then pause the scenario.
Pricing
Make bills in credits: one per module action by default, with some features billed dynamically on tokens, file size, pages or run time, and an AI agent spending a credit per operation, plus token credits unless you bring your own OpenAI or Anthropic key. Routers and error handlers are free. The free plan includes 1,000 credits a month and paid plans are sold by credit tier, from 10,000 credits a month up. Rerun is one plan from $29 a month, and runs are never counted.

Yes, when the work needs judgment rather than a fixed path. Make is excellent at precise data routing. Rerun agents read the input, decide what to do and ask you before anything risky.
No. Rerun is a flat plan from $29 a month and never counts runs. You only add capacity, like agents or model credit, when you need it, and seats are free.
A Make agent takes a goal and picks its tools, modules, scenarios or MCP tools, but it lives inside the scenario you built around it and spends credits on every operation. A Rerun agent is the product itself: it owns the whole job, lives on your workspace’s private machine with its files, databases and memory, and you watch its work on a live board.
Yes. Many teams keep simple, high-volume scenarios in Make and give the tasks that need judgment to Rerun agents.
No. There is no canvas. You describe the job in plain words, connect your apps, and the agent sets itself up.
