The short version
- Each has a real cost: Workato the pricing page names four product lines, Enterprise iPaaS, Agentic solutions, API Management and Data Orchestration, and publishes no figure for any of them, gating all of it behind Schedule a demo; Inngest the free Hobby tier pauses function execution entirely once its 50,000 monthly executions are used, rather than allowing pay-as-you-go overage, as of August 2026.
