Tines

Tines helps security and IT teams automate their most critical manual workloads. Founded in Dublin, Ireland, it has quickly become a unicorn company by solving a problem that generalist tools like Zapier aren't equipped for: handling mission-critical security data with precision and speed. While tools like Make are great for marketing, Tines is built to handle threats, vulnerabilities, and incident response.

The platform relies on just seven types of "actions" (blocks) to build any workflow, making it deceptively simple yet infinitely powerful. It integrates with any tool that has a REST API, meaning you aren't limited by a pre-built app library. If you can curl it, you can automate it with Tines. This flexibility is essential for security engineers who often work with custom internal tools.

Tines offers a "Community Edition" that is free and surprisingly generous, allowing individuals to run sophisticated automation stories. It is particularly famous for its ability to automate phishing triage—taking suspicious emails reported by employees, analyzing the headers, checking attachments in sandboxes, and automatically banning malicious senders—all without human intervention. For European enterprises looking for a robust, secure automation layer, Tines is the gold standard.
