General

What is Sprawl?

Sprawl runs your operations for you. You describe an outcome in plain English, and Sprawl provisions an agent and runs the work across your connected tools — on a schedule or from triggers, not only when you’re watching. You can run a separate project for each thing you operate, so everything you’re responsible for gets its own agents and its own connected accounts.

How does Sprawl work?

You describe the outcome you want in plain English, like "Every weekday at 9am, post a Slack summary of my unread email." Sprawl provisions an agent for that work, connects the apps it needs (Gmail and Slack here), and runs the steps for you. You’re not driving a chat or wiring up a flow — you state the result, and Sprawl stands up the agent that delivers it, then keeps running it on the schedule or trigger you set.

Is Sprawl a chatbot I have to talk to?

No. You don’t sit in a chat window steering it turn by turn, and you don’t wire up a canvas of steps. You describe an outcome once, Sprawl provisions an agent, and that agent runs the work for you and keeps running it on the schedule or trigger you set. Sprawl is built to run operations for you, not to be a chat you have to drive.

Who is Sprawl for?

Sprawl is for operators, agencies, and anyone running more than one thing. If you juggle several projects, brands, or clients, each with its own accounts and its own recurring work, Sprawl gives each one its own agents and keeps them separate. You don’t need to be technical; if you can describe the outcome you want, Sprawl can run it.

What AI models does Sprawl use?

Sprawl is model-agnostic. It runs on 200+ models across ~25 providers — Anthropic, OpenAI, Google, and more — picking the best fit for each job rather than tying you to a single lab. Some steps call for the strongest reasoning model; others are better served by a fast, low-cost one. Sprawl matches the model to the task so you get solid results without overpaying.

Comparisons

How is Sprawl different from Zapier?

The biggest difference is the shape of the product. With Sprawl you describe an outcome in plain English and it provisions an agent to run the work, so there’s nothing for you to build or maintain on Sprawl’s side. Sprawl also organizes work into projects: each thing you operate gets its own agents on its own connected accounts, so you can run several side by side with different Gmail, Slack, or X logins. For what Zapier does today and its current pricing, see zapier.com; you can use both together if you like.

How is Sprawl different from Make?

Sprawl takes a different approach to building automations. You describe the result you want in plain English and Sprawl provisions an agent to run it, so there’s no canvas to wire up or maintain on your side. Sprawl also groups work into separate projects, and each one runs on its own connected accounts, which makes it straightforward to operate several brands or clients without their data mixing. For what Make does today and its current pricing, see make.com; you can use both together if you like.

How is Sprawl different from n8n?

Two differences stand out. First, Sprawl is fully managed and built around plain-English instructions: you describe the outcome and it provisions an agent to run it, with nothing to host or maintain on your side. Second, Sprawl organizes work into projects, and each project runs its own agents on its own connected accounts, so operating several clients or brands stays cleanly separated. For n8n’s current capabilities, hosting options, and licensing, see n8n.io; you can use both together if you like.

What makes Sprawl different from other automation tools?

Two things. First, Sprawl is built for you rather than built by you: you describe an outcome in plain English and it provisions an agent to run the work, instead of assembling and maintaining the automation yourself. Second, Sprawl runs a separate project for each thing you operate, and every project has its own fleet of agents on its own connected accounts. That per-project isolation is what lets one person or a small agency run many operations at once without the wires crossing.

Integrations

Can I connect multiple accounts and run a different one per project?

Yes, and this is core to how Sprawl works. You set up a separate project for each thing you operate, and every project runs on its own connected accounts. One project can use one Gmail, Slack, and X login while another uses a completely different set. Each project runs its own fleet of agents against its own accounts, so one client’s work never touches another client’s inbox. It’s the kind of isolation an agency needs to run several brands or clients at once.

What apps does Sprawl integrate with?

Sprawl integrates with 100+ apps including Gmail, Slack, Notion, Linear, GitHub, Google Drive, Google Calendar, Calendly, Jira, Asana, Trello, HubSpot, Salesforce, Zoom, Airtable, and many more. New integrations are added regularly.

Does Sprawl work with Gmail?

Yes. Sprawl can read, send, and draft emails in Gmail. Common use cases include sending daily email digests, forwarding specific emails to Slack, saving important emails to Notion, and auto-responding to messages matching certain criteria.

Does Sprawl work with Slack?

Yes. Sprawl can send messages, read channels, and respond to Slack events. For example, you can ask Sprawl to post a daily standup summary to a channel, notify you when specific keywords appear, or sync Slack threads to your project management tool.

Does Sprawl work with Notion?

Yes. Sprawl can create pages, update databases, and query your Notion workspace. Popular automations include turning emails into Notion pages, syncing tasks from Linear or Asana into Notion databases, and generating weekly reports in Notion.

Can I connect my CRM to Sprawl?

Yes. Sprawl integrates with HubSpot, Salesforce, and other CRM platforms. You can automate lead enrichment, sync contacts between tools, create follow-up tasks from CRM events, and generate pipeline reports - all through natural language commands.

Pricing & Plans

How much does Sprawl cost?

Sprawl offers a free 14-day trial with 50 credits (no credit card required), then two paid plans: Starter at $19/month with 500 credits and Pro at $49/month with 2,000 credits. Every tier includes access to all 100+ integrations; higher tiers include more credits and priority support.

Is there a free trial?

Yes. Sprawl offers a 14-day free trial with 50 credits — no credit card required. You get access to all integrations and features during the trial; the only limits are the credit allowance and the 14 days. After the trial, choose Starter or Pro to keep going.

What are credits?

A credit measures the computing work Sprawl does in a run. Builder and setup chat are included at no charge on the default and curated models (up to 50 waived turns a day; pinning a premium catalog model meters normally from the first turn); a standard agent run costs about one credit; heavier runs like deep research or long multi-step automations cost more, and lighter runs cost less. Metering is exact and fractional — no minimums, no rounding up; a run only uses what it actually costs. Scheduled and event-triggered runs consume credits the same way. Paid-plan credits reset each monthly billing cycle, and you can top up any time with one-time credit packs (from $9.99 for 50 credits) in billing settings.

What happens if I run out of credits?

Nothing runs without credits, so there are no surprise overage charges. If you run low mid-cycle, top up any time with a one-time credit pack (from $9.99 for 50 credits) in billing settings. If you reach zero, new runs pause with a clear "insufficient credits" message until you add a pack or your monthly allowance resets on your next billing date — then everything resumes.

Security & Privacy

How much control do I have — does it act on its own?

You’re in control. Sprawl runs the routine work you trust it with and checks in with you on anything sensitive. Spending money, deleting data, and sending a first-time message to a new external contact always ask for your approval before they happen. You decide what runs on its own and what needs a green light, and you can change those rules per project at any time.

Is my data safe with Sprawl?

Yes. Sprawl uses industry-standard encryption for data in transit and at rest, and authentication is handled by Clerk, a trusted identity provider. Your conversations and run results are stored so you have a working history — but before anything is saved, financial and credential data (card numbers, bank details, passwords, API keys) is automatically redacted and contact details are truncated. You can delete conversations at any time, and deleted data is purged within 90 days.

Can Sprawl access all my data?

No. Sprawl only accesses the specific apps you explicitly connect and only performs the actions you request. Each integration requires your explicit OAuth consent, and you can disconnect any app at any time from your connections settings.
