About n8n.io

n8n.io is an integration, iPaaS, low code development platform, and workflow management tool that aims to streamline processes and automate repetitive tasks.

n8n is an open source workflow automation and integration tool that lets individuals and teams connect apps, services, and data in automated sequences without relying on complex coding. Built around the idea that users should have full control over their automations, n8n gives you a visual canvas where you can drag and drop nodes representing different apps and functions, link them together into workflows, and customize how data moves and transforms between each step. It supports a vast library of integrations with widely used services such as Google Workspace, GitHub, Slack, databases, CRMs, and thousands of others through community‑built and official connectors, and if a native integration isn’t available you can extend workflows with HTTP requests, JavaScript code, or custom nodes. One of n8n’s standout features is that it can run anywhere — locally on your machine, in your private cloud, or on your own infrastructure — giving you full ownership of your data and helping organizations meet privacy and compliance needs that cloud‑only tools sometimes struggle with.
