What is n8n?

A workflow automation platform — connect hundreds of apps and automate repetitive tasks without writing code.

Main components

• AI-Native Automation Platform: Build and operationalize AI workflows and multi-step agents using your own data, models, and tools
• Model Flexibility, No Lock-In: Connect to OpenAI, Anthropic, Google, or open-source models and switch providers without changing your architecture
• From Prototype to Production: Design multi-step AI workflows with logic, tool use, human approvals, and full observability
• Code When You Need It: Combine visual building with JavaScript, Python, and npm packages for advanced AI workflows
• Enterprise-Ready AI: Self-host or deploy securely with role-based access, audit trails, and support for sensitive data
• Leverage What Already Exists: 1500+ integrations and 9,000+ workflow templates to connect AI with your existing systems

The biggest strength is turning manual chores into scalable workflows — saving hours of work per week.

Best for marketers (auto-posting), devs (CI/CD glue), agencies (client onboarding), anyone with repetitive tasks.
