1,000 free credits and 2 active scenarios a month — the meter pauses your automations the day you run out.
Gates 4/5 4 of the five walls fired — the score is a count, not a verdict.

The five walls
! Price wall
The free tier ends. The limit you hit while everything still looks free.
Free plan: 1,000 credits/month, maximum 2 active scenarios, 15-minute minimum run interval.

! Permission wall
You can see the setting but not touch it. Licenses and admin roles decide what you control.
Team roles, priority execution and security controls live on higher tiers.

✓ Gate wall
A human at the vendor decides your timeline — approvals, reviews, onboarding queues.
Standard tiers are fully self-serve; only Enterprise requires sales contact.

! Meter wall
Cost scales with your success. Per-unit, per-seat, per-message pricing that grows as you do.
Credits are the meter: org-wide monthly quota, non-refundable; exhausted scenarios pause mid-run.

! Exit wall
Getting out costs more than getting in. Your data, your domain, your number — who keeps them.
Scenarios export as JSON blueprints, but the format is Make-specific — no other platform imports it, and connections/credentials do not travel.
