Build AI automations & agents using natural language
n8n is a source-available workflow automation tool designed for technical users. Our low-code platform offers a seamless blend of code and an intuitive interface, serving as the perfect bridge between engineers and other people at your organization.
n8n provides fast feedback loops with re-run single steps, replay/mock data, inline execution logging, and AI-assisted error analysis. Users see inputs/outputs next to settings at every step, avoiding endless debugging clicks and reducing iteration time from days to hours.
n8n supports unlimited users per plan, shared projects with RBAC, Git-based environments (dev/staging/prod), workflow diffs, and audit logs. Business and Enterprise plans include SSO, external secret stores, and log streaming to SIEMs for compliance-heavy organizations.
n8n provides 400+ pre-configured integration nodes plus HTTP request nodes for custom APIs. Users can connect apps like Salesforce, HubSpot, Slack, and Airtable without writing integration code, reducing time spent on customer-specific functionality and POC development.
n8n offers self-hosted deployment via Docker/Kubernetes with on-premise option, Git-based version control, SSO/SAML/LDAP, encrypted secret stores, and audit logging. Users can run workflows air-gapped on private networks or use n8n cloud with EU data residency (Frankfurt).
n8n combines visual workflow builder with code nodes (JavaScript/Python), allowing users to build sophisticated AI agents with multi-step reasoning, RAG systems, and human-in-the-loop controls. Users can inspect every AI decision on the canvas and fall back to code when visual tools reach their limits.
