With standard API and AI integrations
n8n is an open-source, low-code platform that lets you visually build powerful automations by connecting different applications and services.
Beyond Integrations: Connect to Anything
While n8n comes with over 400 pre-built integrations for tools like GitHub, GitLab, and Slack, its real power comes from the generic HTTP Request node. This allows you to integrate with any API to build custom workflows without being limited to a specific list of supported apps.
Practical AI in Your Workflows
AI is a tool for today, and n8n makes it easy to integrate. With dedicated nodes for services like OpenAI, you can automate tasks that would typically require manual effort. For instance, you could use AI to automatically summarize log files, generate code snippets for common issues, or build a smart chatbot for your internal support channels.
Control and Compliance for European Professionals
n8n was founded in Germany with a strong focus on data privacy. You have two excellent options for deployment:
- Self-Hosting: The free, open-source version of n8n gives you full data sovereignty. You can run it on your own infrastructure or a compliant European cloud provider, giving you complete control to meet GDPR requirements.
- n8n Cloud: For a managed service, n8n’s hosted plans use servers in Germany and are SOC 2 compliant.
With n8n, you get a flexible, secure, and self-hostable platform to automate your workflows, allowing you to focus on building and innovating.
