What is n8n?

n8n is a source-available (fair-code) workflow automation platform with a visual editor and native AI-agent nodes. It lets teams build agentic automations that connect hundreds of apps and APIs — self-hosted for full control, or on n8n’s cloud.

What does n8n do?

You build workflows on a visual canvas, dropping in AI-agent and LLM nodes alongside 400+ app integrations, triggers and code steps. Agents can call tools, branch on results and run on a schedule or webhook. Because it is self-hostable, data and credentials can stay in your own environment.

Key features

  • Visual agent workflows — Build agentic automations on a canvas, no heavy code required.
  • 400+ integrations — Connect the apps and APIs your agents need to act.
  • Self-hostable — Run it in your own environment to keep data and secrets in-house.

What are n8n's use cases?

  • Ops automation with an agent — An LLM agent triages inbound requests and routes them across your tools.
  • Self-hosted control — A team runs agent workflows on its own infra for data governance.

Why use n8n?

  • Visual and approachable, yet powerful enough for real agentic workflows.
  • Self-hostable for data control; huge integration library.
