We are building Arengu because when you start a SaaS company there is always a bunch of features around your core app that you always have to develop: registration and login forms, social login, recurring payments and also workflows to automate some tasks or processes like sending welcome emails, notifications, making HTTP Requests to 3rd party services, etc. All of this takes development overhead and it is hard to maintain in case you want to change something. Arengu helps you with all of those features reducing tons of work, security risks and maintenance that come building it yourself.
Some common use cases to use Arengu:
- Create a signup form and validate email address to avoid fake signups.
- Automate tasks after someone submits a form like sending welcome email, subscribing the user to your MailChimp newsletter, receive a Slack notification, etc.
- Create a payment form with one time or recurring payments using Stripe.
- Create event-based actions making a request to our flow API.
- Create custom validation endpoints with our flows.
We are still in public beta and improving our platform before we our final release, so I would really appreciate any kind of feedback or if you have any interesting use case where we can help you using Arengu.
Arengu is FREE until we release our first version (in few weeks), our initial pricing model will be based in operations, an operation is counted every time you submit a form or every time you execute a flow action. Anyway the is a free plan up to 500 operations per month.
I am available if you guys have further questions, want to know more information or just want to say hi.
Thank you!
Is Flows usable in beta? I saw the option to create a flow, but then it sends me to a mostly blank page that looks like it should have widgets to add or something, but I don't see any. Not sure if it's just finicky in Firefox, or just part of the fact that it's beta and not complete.
We are still writing documentation and we hope to complete it in the next weeks.
Flows are usable but our flow editor is buggy in Firefox, we are working to support Firefox as soon as possible. Meanwhile for a better experience you can use Chrome.
If you need further assistance to create some kind of flow just drop me an email to jacobo.vidal [at] arengu.com I will be glad to help you.
