Deployable backend endpoints instead of scenario automations.

Make is a powerful visual automation platform for building scenarios between apps, services and internal tools.

Brickr is built for a different job: visual backend API routes with typed inputs, reusable structures, data logic, deployable endpoints, custom code nodes and a UE5 plugin for Unreal Engine Blueprints.

Use Make if you need visual workflow automation.

Make is probably the better choice when your main goal is to automate work across existing apps and services.

connect SaaS tools
build visual automation scenarios
move data between apps
automate internal operations
orchestrate marketing, sales or support workflows
transform data between connected services

Use Brickr if you need backend API routes.

Brickr is for builders who want visual speed without forcing product logic into a generic automation scenario.

create custom API routes visually
deploy backend logic as real endpoints
define typed inputs, outputs and structures
connect data, storage, auth and route logic
extend visual flows with custom code nodes
call backend routes from Unreal Engine Blueprints

Make automates scenarios. Brickr builds API routes.

Make starts with a scenario: an event happens, data moves through modules and actions run across connected apps.

Brickr starts with a route: a request comes in, typed input is handled, backend logic runs and a response is returned to a real client.

Make is great when the process happens between apps. Brickr is better when the logic belongs inside your product.

Both are visual. The mental model is different.

In Make, you usually think: trigger, modules, app actions and automated scenario.

In Brickr, you think: request, route logic, data operations, response and deployable endpoint.

A Make scenario usually runs around your product. A Brickr route can become part of your product backend.

Some features should not live inside an automation scenario.

Product routes often need to receive a frontend request, validate input, read or write data, apply business logic, return a structured response and stay understandable as the product grows.

That is not just automation. That is backend behavior. Brickr is designed around this route-based model.

Built for Unreal Engine backends too.

Most automation tools are made for business workflows. Brickr is also built for game and product backends.

With the Brickr UE5 plugin, you can call routes directly from Unreal Engine Blueprints and keep game backend logic out of generic automation chains.

player accounts
leaderboards
inventory sync
reward systems
shop logic
unlock systems
content delivery
custom gameplay APIs

Webhooks are useful. They are not the same as owning your backend routes.

Make can receive and send webhook data, and for many automations that is enough.

With Brickr, the route is the main object. You define what the endpoint receives, what logic runs, what data is used and what response gets returned.

If you need a workflow between tools, Make is a strong choice. If you need a backend route your product can call, Brickr is the cleaner fit.

Brickr is visual first, but not locked into visual-only logic.

Visual builders are fast until the feature becomes too specific. Brickr avoids that wall by letting you add custom code nodes when a route needs deeper control.

That matters for custom scoring, validation, game-specific reward rules, checkout helpers, custom response formats and client-specific business logic.
