Quick verdict: Do not start new work on Relay.app — it is shutting down (free accounts deleted after August 15, 2026; paid after September 14, 2026). Export now and rebuild elsewhere. Between the living options: Lindy wins as a personal ops assistant (inbox, meetings, calendar) from $49.99/mo. Zapier Agents wins when your stack already lives in Zapier’s 7,000+ apps — free tier with 400 activities/mo, Pro ~$33/mo annual for 1,500. For Relay refugees who need reliable multi-step automation (not chatty agents), migrate to Make or classic Zapier Zaps first, then layer Agents where judgment is required.
