Comparison
Tunovix vs. Lindy
Lindy is a genuinely capable no-code platform — it even publishes MCP support directly, which most competitors in this list don't. The real difference isn't capability, it's the pricing shape: per-seat and credit-metered forever, vs. a one-time build you own outright.
| Dimension | Tunovix | Lindy |
|---|---|---|
| Price | $1,150–$12,050 one-time build, flat $50/hr | $29.99–$199.99/mo per user (Plus/Pro/Max), credit-metered; custom Enterprise |
| Source-code / IP ownership | Full ownership, delivered to your repo | Not applicable — built and hosted inside Lindy's platform |
| MCP support | Yes — live public MCP server at tunovix.com/mcp | Yes — Lindy explicitly advertises "MCP support, connect any tool" |
| RAG support | Yes — live at tunovix.com/api/ai-search | Not publicly stated on their pricing page |
| Integrations | CRM, helpdesk, ERP, Slack, Gmail, PostgreSQL, custom APIs — scoped per project | "Thousands of integrations" (platform-wide claim) + Slack-native agent |
| Deployment | Your infrastructure/repo, no vendor lock-in | Cloud-only, hosted on Lindy's platform |
| Support model | Founder-led, one point of contact | Support tier details only listed for Enterprise plan |
| Typical timeline | 2–12 weeks, done for you | Immediate access — you build the automation yourself |

Where the per-seat model actually costs more
A team of 5 on Lindy's Pro plan runs roughly $500/month — $6,000/year — indefinitely, for as long as the automation keeps running. A comparable custom build from Tunovix is a one-time $1,150–$4,800, with no recurring per-seat cost after that (only the LLM API usage itself, usage-based either way).
Where Lindy is the better call
If the team wants to build and iterate on automations themselves, today, without waiting on a build — that's exactly what a platform like Lindy is for, and it's a genuinely reasonable choice for that use case. The tradeoff is ongoing cost and staying inside their platform rather than owning a standalone codebase.
What actually gets built either way
See real workflow patterns (customer support, sales qualification, internal knowledge, back-office automation) for what a custom-built agent's scope actually looks like, then get in touch if a one-time build makes more sense than a subscription for your situation.
