I've been using Zapier's AI features for automating support ticket sorting, but the per-task cost added up fast. I switched to a self-hosted AgentGPT setup last month to see if I could get more control and better pricing.

My main workflow takes incoming email content, categorizes it, and creates a Notion doc. With Zapier, I was averaging about $45/month. With AgentGPT, I'm using the OpenAI API directly, and my bill is around $17 so far. The setup was more involved – I had to write the agent logic and handle the webhook from my form – but it runs 24/7 without extra charges for each run. Has anyone else made a similar switch? I'm curious about long-term maintenance or scaling issues people have run into.


Still learning.
