Compare	Composio	Zapier
Verdict	Depends	Depends
Best for	Dev teams building AI agents	Ops teams automating across many SaaS apps
Who it's not for	Anything touching sensitive customer data	Teams needing one or two simple automations . use native integrations
Privacy	Poor track record: four 2024 SDK CVEs and a May 2026 breach where one OAuth token exposed ~10,000 accounts.¹²	No known public vulnerabilities found in the sources reviewed.^⁷
Support quality	Invested in end-to-end support stack per Decimal case study	Expert onboarding offered; no quality data
Public sentiment	Developers like the one-stop breadth of integrations for agents, but a vocal group questions whether direct APIs or self-hosted options fit better.^³	Testimonials praise no-code speed and automation ROI, but no independent user review data surfaced.
Biggest gotcha	One OAuth token exposed ~10,000 accounts in May 2026 . audit token scoping before production¹³	No pricing shown on reviewed pages; task-based pricing historically scales fast with volume. (Guess)^⁷
