Zapier
Each of these is a real decision Zapier is working through, written so you can make the call yourself — incomplete information, someone who pushes back, no answer key.
Zapier is a subscription software platform that connects business applications and automates multi-step workflows, including AI-enabled steps and agents, for business users, teams, and developers. It lets businesses automate workflows and move data across 7,000+ apps. It is evolving into a multi-product platform that includes Zaps, Tables, Interfaces, Chatbots, and more. It also provides embedded automation and developer tooling so other software companies can offer integrations to their own customers. Zapier has pivoted from an SMB product to an enterprise one, and from product-led growth to sales-led growth. Enterprise customers need org-level authentication policy enforcement, such as forced SSO, domain capture, and admin-managed authentication requirements. Its engineering stack is primarily Typescript and React, with Python, Django, and AWS infrastructure. Its cloud and infrastructure stack includes AWS, Kubernetes, Redis, Kafka, and Terraform.

The rest
Forecast task use without turning estimates into billing promises
Partner teams cannot explain rising task use after customers add embedded workflows. You must weigh an actionable forecast against the risk that customers read it as a final charge.
Settle who gets prompted to reauthorize before the Google cutoff
Google-connected embedded workflows are disconnecting as customers reach the reauthorization cutoff. You have to weigh partner continuity against a migration that never blurs tenant authorization boundaries.
Show when a run has failed so partners stop resubmitting it
Failed runs are being submitted again because embedded screens cannot tell failure from processing. You have to weigh a clearer status signal against compatibility for existing API consumers.
