# Ballet
> Ballet is a workflow-automation platform, built by the team behind Brainfish, that resolves complex multi-system business workflows as reviewable, version-controlled code: deterministic where it matters, agentic where it helps.
Growth ideas stall when they need systems connected and engineering roadmaps aren't fast enough. Ballet is the fix: describe the outcome and it builds it, runs it, keeps it working.

## Comparisons
- [Ballet vs n8n](https://ballet.dev/vs/n8n): n8n is great until the graph gets big or the connector doesn’t exist. Ballet writes the integration as code, runs deterministic workflows, and catches breakage with evals. ([md](https://ballet.dev/vs/n8n.md))
- [Ballet vs Workato](https://ballet.dev/vs/workato): Workato means recipes, connectors, and a six-figure contract. Ballet generates the integration code on demand and prices to the workflows you ship. ([md](https://ballet.dev/vs/workato.md))
- [Ballet vs Zapier](https://ballet.dev/vs/zapier): Zapier is perfect for simple triggers. When a workflow spans five systems or needs deterministic accuracy, Ballet takes over, writing the integration as reviewable code. ([md](https://ballet.dev/vs/zapier.md))
## Webinars
- [Watch Ballet build a workflow. Live.](https://ballet.dev/webinars/watch-ballet-build-a-workflow-live): Describe a workflow in plain English. Watch Ballet build it, run it, and show its work every step of the way. Then ask the founder anything. ([md](https://ballet.dev/webinars/watch-ballet-build-a-workflow-live.md))
