Most teams track their automated workflows in static diagrams or someone’s memory. When things break, debugging becomes a nightmare.
Make Grid, launched June 25, 2025, changes that with a real-time, auto-generated map of your entire automation ecosystem.
Why it matters: As businesses run hundreds of interconnected automations, a single API change can break dozens of workflows. Grid provides the missing visibility layer.
What Grid Delivers
- Auto-generated maps: Real-time visualization of every scenario, database, and AI agent.
- Dependency tracking: Highlights critical objects with multiple connections.
- Visual debugging: Spot issues and troubleshoot faster than opening each scenario individually.
- AI transparency: See which AI agents access what data for governance.
- Search & filtering: Isolate specific apps, owners, or error states instantly.
Key Features at a Glance
| Feature | What it does | Why it matters |
|---|---|---|
| Holistic, real-time map | Shows every scenario, module, table, webhook, and AI Agent in one canvas. | Eliminates shadow workflows and uncovers hidden dependencies. |
| Search & dynamic filters | Narrow the view by app, owner, tag, or error state. | Instantly isolate the objects you care about (e.g., “all ClickUp lists touched by HR”). |
| Dependency heat-map | Highlights “hot” objects with many inbound/outbound links. | Guides refactoring and risk analysis before you change anything critical |
| Data-flow inspection | Click any edge to see payload types, auth scopes, run counts, and latencies. | Speeds root-cause analysis without opening every scenario. |
| AI transparency panel | Lists which AI Agents read or write a given record. | Helps meet governance, privacy, and audit requirements. |
| One-click jump-in | Open the underlying scenario directly from Grid. | Cuts context-switching while you edit or debug. |
| Beta pricing: free | Grid is included at no cost while in open beta. | Low-risk way to explore big-picture observability. |
Impact in Numbers
- ChargeGuru: Cut debugging time by 1-2 hours daily, reduced lead-import latency from a week to 15 minutes.
- ARETI: Generated $60-100K in new deals in 8 weeks using Grid for client demos.
- Wemolo: Scaling 7x faster with Grid’s automation insights.

How Grid Compares to Zapier’s Canvas & Visual Editor
| Make Grid | Zapier Canvas/Visual Editor | |
|---|---|---|
| Generation | Auto-generated from live metadata | Manual or AI-assisted diagram you maintain |
| Scope | Entire org’s scenarios, data stores & AI Agents | One Zap or process at a time |
| Real-time updates | Yes | Requires re-export or refresh |
| In-canvas edit & debug | Jump directly into any Make scenario | Limited; opens individual steps in editor |
| Pricing | Free (beta) | Canvas in open beta, pricing TBD |
5-Minute Setup
- Enable Grid in your Make workspace (Settings → Grid Beta)
- Filter by app to spotlight one critical database or webhook
- Analyze dependencies – note run counts and recent errors
- Click through to optimize the busiest scenarios
- Share insights with teammates or executives
The Bottom Line
While competitors race to add visualization features, Make Grid is already delivering six-figure ROI for early adopters. As AI explodes inside every workflow, this kind of visibility becomes essential—not optional.
