Budibase alternative

Workflows that already know your data.

Budibase is open-source low-code internal app builder. Strong for technical operators. TinyCommand serves the operational tool building need with less code surface — forms + DB + workflows + AI agents bundled.

Where it fits

Most automations aren't between two apps. They're between four or five.

TinyWorkflows is the glue — but in TinyCommand, the things being glued are already next to each other.

FAQ

Questions worth asking before you switch.

How is TinyWorkflows different?

+

Workflows here share a data layer with forms, tables, agents, and email — no 'connect to X' wizards for products that are already in the same bundle. Plus per-run pricing, not per-step.

Can I import my existing workflows?

+

Yes — connect your account and we import structure, triggers, actions. Native steps map directly; third-party app steps continue via our integrations. Our team handles anything that doesn't auto-map in your first week.

How many integrations do you have?

+

458 third-party integrations covering the high-traffic apps that 95% of automations actually use. New connectors ship every Thursday.

Is it self-hostable?

+

Not yet — hosted only. If you need self-host (compliance, air-gapped), n8n is the right tool. For everyone else, hosted with the full bundle is the better trade.

What's in the free tier?

+

Generous run quota (not per-task). Pro at $49/mo unlocks the full bundle including team seats.
