Do you still need Tray.io in 2026?
Short answer: for most teams, not at full price. Tray.io still works — but the question is whether it still earns its line item now that AI-native options exist. Here is the honest case both ways.
The case against
Tray.io charges $1,000+/mo. n8n and Make handle the same workflows at 90% less.
When you genuinely still need it
Keep Tray.io if you depend on a specific capability the AI-native alternative does not yet match, if you are mid-contract and the switching cost outweighs the savings this cycle, or if it is deeply wired into workflows your team relies on daily. The goal of an audit is not to cut for its own sake — it is to stop paying for tools you have outgrown.
