Detailed feature comparison

See exactly how Membrane outperforms Nango across critical integration capabilities.

AI Agent that builds integrations
AI agent builds full integrations in minutes
AI builder generates TypeScript code from natural language, but you review, test, and maintain the code yourself
Number of connectors
Any app – unlimited
700+ pre-built API connectors; new API support takes 7–30 days depending on plan
Custom connectors
Build any connector via Membrane Agent to any API
Contribute new APIs to the open-source repo or request them; custom logic is your TypeScript code to write and maintain
Compatibility with coding agents
Full compatibility – Claude Code, Cursor, and others can build integrations directly
Compatible with Cursor, Claude Code, and Codex for generating integration functions, but output is code you deploy and maintain
Data models
Models defined by you – full control from scratch
API unification feature lets you normalize data, but you define and maintain schemas in your own TypeScript code
Data model customization
Fully customizable per integration – define your own schema
Full code-level control over data structures, but per-customer config requires custom logic in your functions
Real-time vs snapshots
Real-time data integration – always fresh from the source, no delay
Supports periodic syncs and real-time webhooks, but synced data is stored and cached by Nango with a potential sync lag window
Real-time events
Full event coverage
Webhook processing with a universal interface, but dependent on the external API supporting webhooks
Managed Auth
Including OAuth app creation & maintenance
OAuth, API keys, token refresh, and credential storage for 700+ APIs
MCP Server support
Built-in MCP server
Built-in MCP server to expose integrations as tools for AI agents
Agentic tooling
Native – agents build, maintain, and debug integrations
LLM tool calling support to expose integrations to agents, but agents don't build or maintain integrations autonomously
API & development tools
API-first, CLI, MCP, low-code visual tools, SDK
Developer-first APIs, SDKs, CLI, AI builder, CI/CD integration
Deployment options
Cloud, private cloud, on-premises / self-hosting
Cloud or self-hosted (open-source), but full sync and action functionality requires Enterprise plan for self-hosting
Data architecture
Pass-through – no data caching or storage
Syncs and stores normalized data in Nango's storage; billed per record stored
Free Proof-of-Concept (PoC)
Free PoC with working prototype provided
No structured PoC program; free tier available for testing with limited resources (10 connections)
Logging & monitoring
Built-in observability and debugging
Built-in logs, metrics, alerts, and OpenTelemetry export on higher plans
Security & compliance
GDPR, SOC2 Type II, HIPAA, encryption; self-hosting options
