Overview

Tines, founded in 2018 in Dublin by former DocuSign security engineers Eoin Hinchy and Thomas Kinsella, gives security teams a no-code workflow builder for automating repetitive operational tasks, connecting alerts, tickets, and tools into automated response sequences without writing custom scripts for each integration.

Unlike most enterprise security-automation platforms in this directory, Tines includes a genuinely free Community Edition rather than only a time-limited trial, letting an individual or small team build and run real workflows at no cost before ever engaging sales. The company raised a $125 million Series C led by Goldman Sachs in 2025, reaching a $1.125 billion valuation, specifically to expand agentic AI capability on top of its existing workflow engine.

Enterprise plans start near $50,000 a year as of May 2026, on top of the free Community Edition. For a security team that wants to build and test real automated workflows before committing budget, rather than starting with an enterprise sales conversation, Tines' free Community Edition addresses that directly.
