Clevis provides a drag-and-drop interface that chains AI model calls, data transformations, and conditional logic without code. Users connect nodes representing API calls, prompt templates, and data flows into directed acyclic graphs (DAGs) that execute sequentially or in parallel. The builder abstracts away HTTP request construction, authentication, and response parsing by exposing model-agnostic input/output ports that automatically serialize/deserialize between UI forms and API payloads.
Unique: Implements a model-agnostic node system that abstracts provider-specific API differences (OpenAI vs Anthropic vs local models) behind a unified visual interface, allowing users to swap model providers without rebuilding workflows. Uses automatic schema inference from model responses to generate downstream node input ports.
vs alternatives: Simpler and more visual than Zapier/Make for AI-specific workflows, but lacks their breadth of third-party integrations; more accessible than code-based frameworks like LangChain for non-technical users, but with less flexibility for complex logic.
Clevis abstracts differences between OpenAI, Anthropic, and local model APIs through a unified prompt node that accepts template variables, system messages, and model parameters (temperature, max_tokens, top_p). The platform handles provider-specific authentication, request formatting, and response parsing internally. Users define prompts once and can swap between providers (e.g., GPT-4 to Claude) by changing a dropdown without rewriting the workflow.
Unique: Implements a provider adapter pattern that normalizes request/response formats across OpenAI (chat completions), Anthropic (messages), and local APIs into a single prompt node interface. Automatically handles authentication token injection and rate-limit backoff per provider.
vs alternatives: More integrated than manually managing multiple SDK clients, but less feature-rich than provider-specific tools like OpenAI's Playground for advanced capabilities like function calling or vision.
Clevis allows creators to save workflow versions and deploy specific versions to production. Users can revert to previous versions if a deployment breaks, and maintain separate draft and published versions. The platform tracks version history with timestamps and creator information, but does not support branching or collaborative editing.
Unique: Automatically snapshots workflow state on each save, creating a linear version history. Deployments are atomic — switching between versions updates the published API endpoint immediately without downtime.
vs alternatives: Simpler than Git-based version control for non-technical users, but less powerful for collaborative development; more integrated than external version control systems since versions are managed within Clevis.
Clevis provides a marketplace where creators can publish workflows for other users to discover, clone, and use. Published workflows can be monetized (paid) or free. The marketplace includes search, filtering by category/rating, and one-click cloning. However, the marketplace is nascent with limited content and discoverability.
Unique: Integrates marketplace directly into the platform — workflows can be published with one click and monetized through Clevis's built-in payment system. Cloning creates a copy in the user's account, allowing customization without affecting the original.
vs alternatives: More integrated than external marketplaces, but far less mature than established platforms (Zapier, Make) with millions of users and workflows.
Clevis embeds Stripe payment processing directly into published apps, allowing creators to charge users per API call, per subscription tier, or per-use basis without external payment infrastructure. The platform handles billing logic, invoice generation, and payout management. Creators define pricing rules in the workflow (e.g., 'charge $0.10 per request'), and Clevis automatically gates access and deducts credits from user accounts before executing the workflow.
Unique: Embeds payment gating directly into workflow execution rather than as a separate layer — pricing rules are defined as workflow parameters, and Clevis automatically enforces credit deduction before node execution. Eliminates need for external billing service.
vs alternatives: Simpler than building custom Stripe integration, but far less flexible than platforms like Paddle or Supabase that offer advanced billing features; faster to launch than self-hosted solutions, but locks users into Clevis's payment infrastructure.
Clevis provides a template system for AI prompts that supports variable interpolation (e.g., {{user_input}}, {{context}}) and conditional text blocks. Templates are stored in the workflow and rendered at runtime by substituting variables from user input, previous workflow steps, or external data sources. The system supports Handlebars-style syntax for basic logic (if/else, loops) within prompts.
Unique: Integrates prompt templating directly into the workflow node rather than as a separate prompt library — templates are versioned with the workflow and executed in the same runtime context, eliminating context-switching between prompt management and workflow building.
vs alternatives: More integrated than external prompt management tools (PromptHub, Langfuse), but less feature-rich for prompt versioning, A/B testing, and analytics.
Clevis includes transformation nodes that parse, filter, and restructure AI model outputs into structured data. Users can extract JSON fields from text responses, split responses into arrays, apply regex patterns, or map responses to predefined schemas. The platform supports chaining transformations (e.g., extract JSON → filter by field → format as CSV) without writing code.
Unique: Provides visual transformation nodes that chain together without code, using a declarative approach where users specify input schema, transformation rules, and output schema. Automatically generates type hints for downstream nodes based on output schema.
vs alternatives: Simpler than writing custom Python/JavaScript transformations, but less powerful than dedicated ETL tools (Talend, Informatica) for complex data pipelines.
Clevis automatically exposes published workflows as HTTP REST APIs with auto-generated OpenAPI schemas. Users can publish a workflow and immediately get a public URL that accepts JSON requests and returns responses. The platform handles API authentication (API keys), rate limiting, request validation, and response formatting. No manual API server setup or deployment is required.
Unique: Automatically generates REST API endpoints from workflows without requiring manual server code — the workflow DAG itself becomes the API implementation. OpenAPI schema is inferred from workflow input/output types and auto-updated when workflow structure changes.
vs alternatives: Faster to deploy than building custom Flask/Express servers, but less flexible for complex API requirements (authentication schemes, custom middleware, async operations); simpler than AWS Lambda/Google Cloud Functions for non-technical users.
