  "price": "Free: daily credit allowance, limited active workflows, 300-second max run, 30 min/day test runtime. Paid plans from roughly $29/mo. One credit = 30 seconds of compute at 256MB.",

  "what": "Hosted workflows where each step is either a prebuilt component or arbitrary Node, Python, Go or Bash. 2,700+ apps with managed OAuth. Pipedream Connect embeds that auth and tool-calling into your own product or agent, and serves hosted <b>MCP</b> servers per app.",
  "why": "The middle ground: visual trigger-and-step structure with real code in every step, so you never hit a no-code ceiling. Managed OAuth alone saves days when your agent needs live tokens for a dozen SaaS APIs.",
  "warn": "Credits meter <b>compute time</b>, not runs, so a slow third-party API call costs as much as heavy computation. Raising memory above 256MB multiplies credit burn proportionally. Connect is billed separately on API usage plus end users.",
