Latenode review

Latenode takes a different route from Zapier's task model: it charges for how long workflows run, measured in CPU seconds, and says unlimited workflow steps do not multiply the bill. The Free plan includes 10,000 CPU seconds a month, which Latenode puts at up to 10,000 quick runs of about one second each, with 5 active workflows and 3 minutes per run. After that, pay as you go has no base fee and uses tiered rates starting at $0.00012 per CPU second; the vendor's own example puts 100,000 one-second runs at $10.80 a month. Scaling unlocks unlimited active scenarios, 5 parallel workers and 30-day run history. Builders can write JavaScript in any node, automate websites with a headless browser and use 335+ LLM models, and a migration calculator compares bills against Zapier, Make and n8n. Runtime billing is harder to forecast for slow API calls.

Who it is for

Builders with high-volume, fast workflows who want to pay for runtime rather than steps.
