When Tealfabric fits
You have iPaaS plus scripts plus spreadsheets and no governed place to run production workflows with human approval and audit.
Compare
Governed operations runtime vs iPaaS patterns
iPaaS tools excel at fast task automation and connector marketplaces. Tealfabric is for teams that need integrations inside governed processes, operational data, and policy-bound agents—not another glue layer.
Typical iPaaS
- Fast zaps and huge connector marketplaces
- Citizen-builder UX for simple task automation
- Per-task pricing and shallow audit across systems
- Copilots bolted on without tenant execution context
Tealfabric
- Same tenant for process automation, Datapools, WebApps, and policy-bound agents
- Integrations run inside Process Automation with Monitor and audit trails
- ProcessFlow keystore for secrets—not env vars in scripts
- Ops and technical owners with guardrails, not zap sprawl
Sales landmine
Connector count is not the headline. Redirect to governance, cross-system processes, and who owns production workflows—not per-task price.
