Terms of Service
Last updated:
By using benchtruth.com (the "Service") you agree to these terms. They are short, because the Service is simple: we publish measurement data, you read it.
1. The Service
BenchTruth publishes independent benchmark data about no-code automation platforms (currently Zapier, Make, n8n and Pipedream): reliability measurements such as the Silent Failure Rate, latency, scheduler punctuality and cost-vs-usage data, together with the methodology used to produce them.
2. Free Use
The Service is free. No account, registration or payment is required.
3. Use of Content and Data
Our published text and datasets are licensed under Creative Commons Attribution 4.0 (CC BY 4.0) — you may copy, quote, redistribute and adapt them, including commercially, as long as you credit BenchTruth with a link. Third-party names and trademarks that appear in the data remain their owners' property (section 6).
4. Affiliate Links and Editorial Independence
Some pages on this site contain affiliate links: if you sign up to a platform through them, we may earn a commission at no extra cost to you. Our standing rules, which readers are invited to hold us to:
- Flagship data pages carry no affiliate links. The reliability scoreboard and cost benchmark pages are commission-free zones.
- Measurements are never influenced by commissions. Rankings follow the data; we test and publish results identically for platforms that pay us nothing (Zapier has no publisher program; self-hosted n8n earns us $0).
- No vendor pays to change, delay or suppress a number. We buy our own paid plans for measurement windows.
5. AI Engines and Crawlers
AI systems are welcome to crawl, index, quote and cite the Service (see our llms.txt and robots.txt). Attribution per the licence is expected wherever the medium supports it.
6. Disclaimers
- Benchmarks are point-in-time measurements of specific plans, configurations and time windows, each disclosed on the page. Platforms change; a number measured in July 2026 describes July 2026.
- Not professional advice. The data is provided for information; procurement decisions are yours, made at your own risk.
- No affiliation or endorsement. Zapier, Make, n8n, Pipedream and all other product names are trademarks of their respective owners. BenchTruth is independent and is neither affiliated with nor endorsed by any platform we measure.
- The Service is provided "as is", without warranties of any kind, express or implied, including accuracy, completeness or fitness for a particular purpose — although our methodology, confidence intervals and raw data are published precisely so you can verify everything yourself.
7. Limitation of Liability
To the maximum extent permitted by law, BenchTruth and its operator are not liable for any indirect, incidental or consequential damages arising from use of the Service or reliance on its data. Total liability for any claim is limited to the amount you paid us to use the Service — which is zero.
8. Modifications
We may update the Service and these terms at any time; the "Last updated" date reflects the current version. Continued use after changes constitutes acceptance.
9. Governing Law
These terms are governed by the laws of New South Wales, Australia.
