What our research says

Magic Loops

A quick way for non-programmers and hobbyists to turn an idea into a working, shareable AI mini app or scheduled automation. It is cheap to start and the credit model is easy to understand. The public changelog stops in October 2025, so treat it as a maintained but slower-moving product and keep a backup plan for anything business-critical.

Pros

  • Plain-language creation of workflows that mix LLM calls and code
  • Free tier with 8,000 credits to try it
  • Loops can run on a timer or be called through an API endpoint
  • Transparent credit pricing at $1 per 1,000

Cons

  • Private Loops need a paid plan
  • Free plan limits run credits to a monthly allowance
  • Public changelog has no entries after October 2025

Relevance AI

A credible no-code agent builder, but pricing has moved behind a sales conversation and the two-meter billing makes running cost genuinely hard to forecast.

Pros

  • Agents get tools, knowledge and schedules without any code
  • Free tier of 200 actions a month is enough to prototype something real
  • Model cost is passed through without markup on vendor credits
  • Agents can be grouped into teams that hand work between each other

Cons

  • Self-serve prices are no longer published anywhere on the site
  • Two simultaneous meters make budgeting awkward and surprises likely
  • Top-up rates are steep at $80 per 1,000 actions
  • Smaller vendor than the incumbents it is competing against
