n8n

What it is

n8n is an open, fair-code workflow automation platform built around a node-based canvas: chain 500+ app connectors, databases and internal APIs into workflows, drop into JavaScript or Python when a node isn't enough, and add AI agent nodes — LLM chains with memory and tools — where judgment-like steps help. Because it self-hosts cleanly (Docker, Kubernetes) or runs in n8n cloud, sensitive data can stay inside your perimeter.

Where it wins

• AI agents on enterprise processes — with control over models, prompts and data
• Strict data-residency or self-hosting requirements
• Long-tail SaaS, internal APIs and webhook-driven automation
• High-volume automation where per-task pricing models get expensive

What we deliver

• Hosting architecture — self-hosted (Docker/K8s) or n8n cloud, with SSO and backup
• Governed workspace: scoped credentials, environments, versioning
• Workflow and AI agent design and build, with approval gates and audit logs
• Custom nodes for SAP and internal systems
• Observability, error handling, runbooks and team enablement

Why Ekonbee

We treat automation with the same discipline as integration: scoped credentials, approval gates, audit trails, monitoring. And we're platform-pragmatic — where a recipe-based iPaaS like Workato or Boomi fits your case better, we'll say so.
