Key Strengths and Platform Overview

Welcome! In this article, you'll discover what makes Latenode the top choice for automating business processes, building advanced workflows, and scaling faster — with better performance and lower costs.


💰 Platform Capabilities & Cost Efficiency

Most Cost-Effective Platform on the Market

Latenode is the most cost-effective platform available, especially for large and complex automations. Unlike competitors, Latenode charges only for the time used, not per operation. Even if you perform dozens of actions within a 30-second span, it will still only cost 1 credit.

61 actions completed in just 12 seconds, and it only cost… one credit ($0.0019)! On Make or Zapier, this would count as 61 separate operations.

Ultra-Efficient Request Filtering – Pay Less for More

On Grow and Prime plans, runs that stop at the first filter cost just 0.005 credits per request — meaning 1,000,000 requests for only $9.5. This makes high-frequency automation extremely affordable.

📦 App Nodes & Plug-n-Play Power

Plug-n-Play Functional Nodes

No need to create separate accounts for LLMs or external services — Latenode provides direct access at cost price, without markup. Plug-n-play nodes provide ready-made functionality such as data enrichment, neural network access, and data transformation. Many of these don’t even require account setup or API keys — they just work out of the box.
