What is n8n?
n8n is a source-available workflow automation tool that can be self-hosted on your own infrastructure, removing per-task pricing entirely. It exposes a code node for arbitrary JavaScript and Python, supports custom nodes, and has become the default choice for engineering-adjacent teams that need automation without sending data through a third-party cloud.
Best for: Engineering teams that want self-hosted control and no per-task billing
