AutoSend is an email delivery service, not an AI model product, so the first reason to look elsewhere is a mismatch of job. The cheapest Hobby plan is $1 per month for transactional email, and it caps at 3,000 emails per month with 7-day data retention and no webhooks. No free tier was seen, and an account is required. Past the included volume, additional emails cost $0.0020 each on Hobby and Starter, which adds up as the larger tiers (Growth at $30, Scale at $150 per month) get costly.
Zapier and Make sit one step above sending: they connect the apps that decide when an email goes out. Zapier's Professional plan is $19.99 per month for 750 tasks, with webhooks, unlimited multi-step Zaps and email and live chat support, and there is a free tier. Make's Core plan is $9 per month for 10k credits, with unlimited active scenarios, 1-minute scheduling and API access, and also a free tier. Neither is a mail server, so most teams would pair them with a sender, not swap one for the other.

No free tier was seen. The lowest plan is Hobby (transactional) at $1 per month, and Hobby plans have no webhooks.
Additional emails cost $0.0020 each on Hobby and Starter, $0.0015 on Growth and $0.0010 on Scale.
Zapier and Make both list free tiers. They automate workflows between apps, so they complement an email sender more than they replace it.
It is mainly an email delivery service, the Hobby tier has 7-day retention and no webhooks, there is no free plan, and an account is required.
