Thanks! That's been our experience exactly and is the reason we're building it. The experience of AWS step functions on one extreme and Zapier on the other.

Oh, no. The other extreme wasn’t Step Functions. It was AWS Lambdas stringed together through DynamoDB Streams, SQS, SNS and S3 triggers, all obscurely tied together in a murky single-file yaml template deployed by JAWS (now the serverless framework, which has definitely made some much-appreciated improvements).

But something

- offering a clear visualisation

- and allowing to simply integrate with third-party APIs

- without having to deal with some’s quite obscure documentation

while at the same time

- easy to monitor & debug

- offering versioning

- allowing to just write a few lines instead of going through pointy-clicky drag-and-droppy mess

Yes, that was lacking. Reminds me of Zenaton (https://zenaton.com/). I can only wish you to be more successful than they were.
