This is awesome. I've been abusing Zapier for years now as a middle layer to integrate with 3rd parties without having to implement their APIs. Zapier's UI is built for non-technical users, anad it makes a lot of advanced use cases very cumbersome to implement.. Super excited to try reimplementing some of our more complicated zaps with this!
Are you all planning to implement as extensive of a collection of integrations as Zapier has?

You may find the Zapier's developer platform useful. Instead of using pre-built integrations, you can develop and ship your own Node.js packages for private use. I've got a fleet of them that can do basically anything, but also play nice with the rest of the platform.
I'm not sure exactly what your pain points are here, but there's definitely an "escape hatch" for power users!
