When building automations across teams, the usual trade-off is between flexibility and control. You either sacrifice precision for simplicity or burn time building everything from scratch. n8n changes that equation.

It's a workflow automation platform designed with technical teams in mind, engineers, devops, and data professionals who want the efficiency of visual tools without giving up the depth of real code. You get both.

One Platform. All the Power.

With over 400 integrations out of the box and full native AI capabilities, n8n allows you to connect systems, automate tasks, and even build multi-step AI agents using tools like LangChain, all from a single visual interface. But when you need to get deep into the weeds, the code editor is right there. Add custom JavaScript or Python, install npm packages, and wire everything together as flexibly as your architecture demands.

This is automation on your terms.

Built for Engineers Who Care About Control

n8n isn’t just about getting things done fast, it’s about getting them done right. Whether you're deploying with Docker, hosting your own LLMs, or running air-gapped environments, n8n offers full control. Everything can be self-hosted, from your automations to your AI stack. And because it’s fair-code licensed, you retain full transparency and access to the source.

Security isn’t a bolt-on here. It’s a foundation. n8n supports SSO with SAML and LDAP, encrypted secrets, granular role-based access controls, and enterprise-grade versioning. Want Git workflows, isolated dev environments, and audit logs? It’s all baked in.

Build AI Agents Like Building with Blocks

n8n makes building multi-step agentic systems feel almost playful. Connect tools, orchestrate LLMs, and deploy complex AI automations with just a few clicks, or as many lines of code as you need. From querying internal data to creating tasks or interacting via Slack or voice, you can build assistants that actually understand your context and act on it.

This is AI automation not just embedded in your workflows, but owning them.

Iteration Without the Pain

Every automation platform claims to save you time. Few help you recover it. With n8n, debugging is as fluid as development. Replay workflows, re-run single steps, mock data, and trace logs inline. And with over 900 templates and 1700 pre-built use cases, you’re never starting from zero.

It’s not just low-code, it’s fast-code.

For Teams That Build at Scale

Whether you’re a startup with strict data policies or an enterprise needing fine-grained control, n8n grows with your needs. Run it in your cloud, behind your firewall, or use the managed version if convenience is king. The platform’s architecture and licensing give you the freedom to adapt as fast as your business does.

If you’ve been stuck between too-simple tools and too-complex frameworks, n8n offers a third path: flexible, powerful automation with no compromise.
