Platforms & Tools

n8n

n8n is a flexible workflow-automation tool (often self-hosted) that offers visual building plus the ability to add custom code, making it a favorite for more technical or complex automations that outgrow simpler no-code platforms.

Why it matters for your business

n8n is a good fit when automations need custom logic or you want more control and lower per-task cost at scale. It's more capable than the simplest tools but takes more expertise to run well — which is often where a build partner comes in.

In practice

n8n powers a custom pipeline that pulls data from an old system's API, cleans it with a code step, and syncs it nightly to your modern CRM.
