Relay.app is the easiest-to-use Zapier alternative, now with 3 new flexible ways to incorporate AI in your automations. Paired with Human-in-the-Loop steps, you get all the benefits of AI but still keep the control and oversight you need to feel confident.
Hello Product Hunt! 👋
Jacob here, founder/CEO of Relay.app—the easiest-to-use Zapier alternative with a generous free plan.
We’re all on the hunt to find actually useful ways to build AI into our work, and I firmly believe that the easiest way for most of us to do this is by incorporating AI into our repeated automations. Today, we’re introducing 3 new ways you can do so in Relay.app:
1️⃣ Built-in AI actions for common use cases like text summarization and data extraction from sources like emails, meeting notes, and websites.
2️⃣ A flexible ‘Custom Prompt’ step that lets you prompt any AI model and use the response as structured data in your workflow.
3️⃣ AI Mini Agents that are empowered to invoke custom actions on your behalf
The best part? Our Human-in-the-Loop 🙋 steps let you insert checkpoints for approvals or inputs anywhere in your automations. You get all the benefits of AI-powered automation, but you keep the control and oversight you need to feel confident.
Head over to Relay.app to get started!
Jacob
P.S. In addition to our generous free tier, reasonable use of GPT-4o is included for free in all our plans. You can also connect your own account to use any model you like from OpenAI, Google, Anthropic, Groq, or Perplexity.
Great job! The flexibility to connect any AI model from providers like OpenAI and Google is a fantastic feature. How easy is it to switch between different AI models within a single workflow?
Looks great! The pricing is reasonable too.
Do you plan on adding Circle.so as one of the integrations soon?
Congrats on the launch! The use of AI in automation is amazing, great work team🦾. I'm excited to try out the built in AI actions for a streamlined work.
Congrats on the launch, Jacob!
Relay.app sounds like a fantastic tool, especially for someone like me who rely on automation to streamline workflows. The built-in AI actions for text summarization and data extraction will be a game-changer for my daily tasks!
I was wondering, how customizable are the AI Mini Agents in terms of integrating with different marketing platforms?
Hey, really interesting product!
I love the structuring & human-in-the-loop elements, which would prevent a lot of errors proactively that happen with these types of tools. I'm curious if the entire flow would be generated automatically from just the prompt at some point, so one can just prompt and the entire automation workflow is created?
Good luck & congrats again.
Congratulations on your launch! The AI-powered automations and Human-in-the-Loop steps are game-changers. What a fantastic tool!
I love Relay so much and use it all the time! I have Relay crating automatic meeting notes for me in Notion every time I take a zoom meeting, linking my fireflies call recording to my Notion notes page, and adding zoom/meet links to blank calendar invites. I've introduced Relay to countless people and they all love it! I've also worked with Relay as head of partnerships for Smartsuite.com and can tell you they are an awesome partner! If I had to bet on the next big automation company in the age of AI it would def be Relay! Relay is easy to use and very intuitive. Relay is very advanced and innovative with aI and human in the loop. If you are evaluating automation tools for your team I'd see no reason not to go with Relay! The cherry on top? Jacob and the entire team are absolutely awesome! I've personally interacted with many/most of them and there's no doubt in my mind this company will be a household name in the coming years! Rant over!
I've been looking to switch from Zapier. Great job on building a much better UI. So far, I find it much more intuitive.
"Every feature we offer is included in every plan." <- I like that.
Congrats on the launch!
Congrats on the launch team! Relay has been so essential to us. Appreciate all the awesome work and great support
Love Relay! It's so simple to use, the automations are super powerful (saves me so much time), and team is world class (always there for me if I need it). So stoked on the newest features!
Man, the Relay.app team is absolutely killing it! I love the responsiveness of the team, and their innovation in the no-code workflow automation space. It's about time we have a serious alternative apart from Zapier 😅
Congratulations on launching these powerful new AI features, @jebank ! This sounds like a significant step forward for user-friendly and accessible AI integration in workflows. Great work!
Brilliant product! Congratulations to your launch, Jacob! looking forward for your success also just gave it a good upvote!
