What it is
n8n is the automation tool engineers reach for: source-available, self-hostable, with code nodes wherever visual building runs out of road. Recent releases lean hard into AI agent workflows, making it a favorite for LLM orchestration. Self-hosting eliminates per-task fees entirely — compelling at scale — while the cloud version stays competitive. The catalog is smaller than Zapier's and the polish assumes technical comfort, which is exactly its audience.
