Gumloop and Suede AI Agent Studio both build AI workflows on a visual canvas with no code. Suede AI Agent Studio adds two things: an org chart that runs your agents like a company, with budgets and approval gates on every seat, and a way to sell an eligible agent's work per call, with settled payments routed to your wallet.
Sign in, then describe the job or pick a template. Nothing runs live until you launch it.
New to visual builders? A flow is a graph. Each node does one job, like fetch, reason, branch or send, and the lines between nodes carry data from one step to the next.

Competitor capabilities checked against public documentation and first-party releases as of July 24, 2026. “Not found” means we could not locate the capability in public sources, not that it can never ship. The Suede column is inspectable live: browse published agents and their explicit payment state.
Why builders switch
On every platform we checked in July 2026, billing points one way: the builder pays. Builders who want to charge for an agent's work assemble payment plumbing by hand today. On Suede AI Agent Studio it's a built-in opt-in after publish: eligible agents can enable payments, and settled x402 v2 calls route to the configured payout wallet. There are no invoices to send and no payment gateway to wire up. See how pricing works.
Plenty of tools now render multi-agent workflows. Suede's org chart is the operating surface itself: departments you create, budgets and approval gates on each seat, a CEO chat that directs the whole company. Every seat opens into the canvas where its flow is built and priced, so structure, execution, and earnings live on one surface. Start from a company template.
Start in dry-run mode. Build, test, and publish your agent without connecting a wallet. Going Live does not move money; eligible agents enable payments separately when they are ready to charge callers. The flow stays the same, with one visible price per call, itemized per node. Read the architecture.

Common questions
Gumloop is a polished workflow automation builder where the builder pays for usage. Suede AI Agent Studio adds a company operating model on top of the canvas (departments, per-seat budgets, approval gates, and a CEO chat). Eligible published agents can then be separately payment-enabled for x402 v2 caller settlement in USDC on Base.
Not natively, as far as public documentation showed when we checked in July 2026. Gumloop's creator program distributes templates without per-call settlement, and Make's agent library deploys free agents. Builders on either platform assemble payment plumbing by hand today; on Suede AI Agent Studio payment enablement is a separate opt-in after publish.
No. Dry-run mode lets you build, test, and publish agents without connecting a wallet. Going Live alone does not move money; eligible agents can enable payments separately when they are ready to charge callers.
Ready to switch?
Connect your nodes, test with a dry run, and launch. Runs bill at what they cost plus 5% from credit you top up. If the agent is eligible, enable payments separately when it is ready to sell.
