Per Zapier's own docs, a task fires every time a Zap moves data for one record through an action step. A 3-step Zap processing 100 rows isn't 100 tasks — it can be 300. Filters and paths that don't pass don't bill, but search and formatter steps often do.

What we're hearing: teams migrating to Make get seduced by 'operations' being cheaper per unit, then discover Make charges per module per bundle — a different math entirely.
