Power Automate is a cloud service only. Tutti runs on your servers too.
Microsoft’s on-premises gateway moves data; it doesn’t run Power Automate. Tutti is open source under Apache 2.0, and the whole app runs on your own servers.
Open source under Apache 2.0. Read the setup guide or the code on GitHub
Where Power Automate is the better pick.
Your company runs on Microsoft 365.
Microsoft 365 plans include cloud flows with standard connectors, at no extra cost.
You automate Windows desktop apps.
Power Automate’s desktop flows drive Windows applications. Tutti’s browser agent works with websites only.
Moving from Power Automate to Tutti.
Describe each flow in a sentence.
Tutti draws the workflow from your words, and you can change any step.
Connect the same apps.
Sign in to each app once per workspace. For an app Tutti lacks, use the HTTP step or a custom connector.
Run it once, then switch it on.
Run the workflow by hand and read what each step did. Then turn on its schedule or webhook, and turn the flow off.
