This looks pretty interesting! Will keep it in mind in my next browser automation project.

Love the idea & execution of this! It was so much fun to look back on the year on Github instead of Spotify!

Good to see you all launch on HN! I'm a founder @ https://revert.dev and we are building something similar. Competition is always good for the users.

If you like Nango, you'd love us! ;)

Congrats on the launch!

Question:

* How do you see open-source being an advantage for Formbricks when competing with other tools in the market?

Excellent suggestions. Thanks so much!

1. Agreed on this! We plan to offer this as a service along side our API offering at some point.

2. We’d be adding more authentication mechanisms soon so API tokens will be supported alongside OAuth.

Yes. It’s like Zapier that connects various APIs together but instead of no-code blocks that marketing/sales/product teams use, we are an API itself that developers can use to build integrations that are natively coupled into your product. This way your users don’t really know that you’re using Revert

Hi! Appreciate the comment and understand the skepticism here.

Well business/startups are tough are in general & more die than survive so you're probably right on those stats.

Would love to know more about your experience specifically though? Which products did you try? What was the use-case you had that made you add your own integration?

I'd love to chat more on this if you'd be up for it. :)

Hi, our frontend logic is minimal. Most of the product is the API which can be called from anywhere.

I don't see why this may not work for your use-case too. I'm happy to chat more if you want to just talk tech here and maybe avoid engineering work for your use-case.

Hello! The platform we're building is quite generic to support these integrations.

Happy to take issues here and we could prioritise them based on the interest of our current customers/prospects: https://github.com/revertinc/revert/issues

hi, feel free to create an issue here and we ourselves could pick it up if it resonates with others as well: https://github.com/revertinc/revert/issues

Hi! Thanks for your comment.

> Even though [Nango] seem to have more integrations

We agree Nango has more integrations and we love OSS software so I'm with you on this. Credit where credit is due and we don't want to make false claims at all. We never claimed to have more integrations than them. I'm not sure how what I posted came off as dishonest.

> but seemingly only for picking out response key if they're strings, not any "pick from object", or "compute based on multiple properties"?)

I'd say we support this perhaps in a different way.

I have not used Nango myself to comment on specific ways it handles data vs how we handle it.

Its great that you're liking Nango and we want OSS/better product to win regardless.

Not sure about your use-case but I'm happy to help and share the learnings we've had so far in the technical aspects of building Revert.

Maybe just a book a time with us or DM us Twitter and we can take it from there?

Great feedback!

We're getting a few community contributions out this week into Revert in a very hands-on way.

This way we'd learn how to best optimise the product to allow for community contributed integrations at scale and the tutorial will be basis these learnings.

We launched v early tbh!

Great question -

Our pricing is in-line with B2B customers and the way we define a connection is a single tenant (example: CRM) connecting through our APIs. Within that CRM/tenant, you could make as many API calls as you'd like (upto a certain limit). Usually this means, one connection <> one customer of yours.

If you're a B2C application with a lot more connections happy to chat more and work out a pricing that works for both of us.

You could book a time with us, happy to chat further: https://cal.com/allenrevert/30min

Great question!

We're different from n8n in the sense that we help you build native integrations with APIs and not in a no-code way.

We will help you build an integration of Slack (for eg) within your product with your users/customers, natively.

That means, your end-users or customers will not know that you are using our APIs underneath as Revert can be fully white-labelled.

We don't offer a workflow UI like n8n at all.

Happy to answer any further questions on this. Feel free to book a time from our cal if you think this could be relevant for you!

Cheers.
