Introducing the Simple Text Prompt module: The easiest way to start using AI in Make

Discover how to start building AI-powered automations in seconds by simply typing what you want. Summarize documents, create content, or enhance workflows with intelligent reasoning.

Looking for an easy way to use AI in Make? We know that AI models are more powerful than ever, but getting started with them inside automation platforms can be tricky. That’s why we’ve introduced the new Simple Text Prompt module.

With the Simple Text Prompt module, AI automation just got easier: no setup, no API keys, no friction. The new module lets anyone use powerful AI models with nothing more than a plain text prompt. Just type what you want, run, and build from there.

What does the Simple Text Prompt module do?

Everyone wants to take advantage of the power of AI models. But some problems can get in the way. For example, the need to create accounts on multiple AI providers may make processes additionally complex. Managing API keys and billing can also cause confusion. Knowing which models to choose and understanding how to structure prompts inside workflows can also be a challenge. For many users, especially those exploring automation for the first time, these technical hurdles stop their progress before they even start.

The Simple Text Prompt module removes all of these barriers. It means that users no longer need any setup, deep technical knowledge, API keys, or provider accounts. All you need is a text prompt, a workflow idea, and, of course, Make. 

With built-in connections to OpenAI, Gemini, Claude, and Groq, anyone can drop AI into their workflows instantly - with no experience required.

How it works - and how you can use it

The Simple Text Prompt module is so simple that it doesn’t need a tutorial. All you have to do is add the module to your scenario, choose the model you want to use, type what you want the AI to do, and run the scenario. And that’s it - the module handles the rest.

Once up and running, the Simple Text Prompt Module is perfect for a range of automations, including: summarising emails or documents on the fly; rewriting or improving text; generating ideas for content, marketing, or customer replies; creating personalised messages at scale; powering basic AI Agents with natural-language instructions; or enhancing any automation with quick, context-aware reasoning.

You don’t need a technical background. There’s no setup. All you need to do is create. Try the "summarising emails" use case with your preferred model in a pre-built template:

The future of AI automation 

With the Simple Text Prompt module, Make becomes the easiest place to learn, experiment, and build with AI, especially for users who are: newer to automation; keen to avoid complex integrations; unsure which AI provider to choose; looking for fast prototypes or simple workflows; or exploring AI at work for the first time. This is an entry point for users who want the power of AI without the technical overhead.

The Simple Text Prompt module is just the start. At Make, we’re continuing to invest in features that reduce complexity, improve accessibility, expand AI capabilities, and ultimately make. And we can’t wait to share what’s coming next.
