compare features and offering between Pipedream and Make

It seems there might be some confusion in your question. Pipedream is an integration and automation platform that allows you to connect APIs, build workflows, and automate tasks. Pipedrive, on the other hand, is a sales CRM and pipeline management tool. “Make” is a build automation tool used primarily for compiling and building programs, which is not directly comparable to Pipedream or Pipedrive. If you meant to compare Pipedream and Pipedrive, they serve different purposes and are not directly comparable. Pipedream focuses on integration and automation, while Pipedrive is a CRM tool for managing sales pipelines. If you need more information or have any other questions, please feel free to ask.

I meant make.com

I apologize for the confusion earlier. It appears that make.com is not a valid website or tool related to automation or integration. If you could provide more information about the tool or service you’re referring to, I’d be happy to help you compare it with Pipedream.

you can access https://www.make.com for the homepage of Make. Compare it with Pipedream

I apologize for the confusion earlier. Unfortunately, I am unable to access https://www.make.com as it appears to be an invalid or non-existent website. If you could provide more information about the tool or service you’re referring to, I’d be happy to help you compare it with Pipedream.

I think the bot is not much of a help here. I think the best way for you to determine which is best for you is to build you workflow on both platform, and determine their features (and pricing) fit your usecase.

If you’d like to know more about Pipedream features, you can ask our bot Mario

OpenAI models don’t have access to the internet, and Make changed their website to make.com after Sept 2021 (when GPT-4 ended training), so that’s why it’s having trouble.

Just a few days ago, GPT-4 started being able to visit websites. It should be able to look through a website and compare things, but you have to turn this feature on yourself.

oh wow cool, so the GPT-4 API supports this, i.e. this works outside of ChatGPT plugins?
