About n8n
n8n is a workflow automation platform for technical teams that combines a visual canvas with the freedom to write code wherever a node is not enough. Users chain triggers and actions across more than 500 integrations, drop JavaScript or Python into any step, and build AI agents whose reasoning is traceable node by node on the same canvas. Every workflow can run on n8n's cloud or on the user's own infrastructure.
It suits developers, IT and operations teams that outgrow point and click automation tools but do not want to hand write every integration. The important capabilities are the hybrid code and no code model, native AI agent and LLM nodes, self hosting through Docker with the full source available on GitHub, and pricing that counts a complete workflow execution rather than each step, so complex workflows do not become expensive as they grow. n8n is released under a fair code license: the source is open, self hosting is free, and certain enterprise features are commercial.
Cloud plans are billed annually and published as Starter at $20 per month for 2,500 workflow executions and 5 concurrent executions, and Pro at $50 per month for 10,000 executions and 20 concurrent executions. Business, which is self hosted only, is listed at 667 euros per month for 40,000 executions, and Enterprise, hosted by n8n or self hosted with a custom execution volume and 200 or more concurrent executions, is priced through sales. All plans include unlimited users, unlimited workflows and every integration. The Community Edition is free to self host, and a Startup plan offers half price Business for companies with fewer than 20 employees.
