Visual and code-based workflow automation with AI agents and integrations.
- Automation & agents · editorial fit
Overview
n8n lets technical teams build automations by connecting visual workflow steps, integrations, and JavaScript or Python code. Its execution view keeps inputs and outputs visible beside each step so teams can inspect and rerun work.
The platform supports AI workflows with structured data, human approvals, rules, logs, and evaluation controls. Teams can deploy on their own infrastructure or through n8n, with governance features for larger operational environments.
