Service · Automate

n8n automation that belongs to you.

As an n8n agency, we build your workflows in n8n, set up the instance on your servers or in an EU data centre and hand it all over in a way your team understands. For businesses with about 10 staff or more that would rather own their automations than rent them.

In two minutes: what per-seat licences cost and how your own software comes together.
Who it’s for
Businesses that want to keep data and processes in their own hands
Result
Your own n8n instance with workflows, error alerts and documentation
Duration
first workflows within one sprint (2 weeks)
Price
from €4,900 per sprint

What n8n is

n8n is a workflow automation tool made by n8n GmbH in Berlin. A workflow is built from nodes that connect programs, reshape data and call AI models. Where no node exists, a Code node runs your own JavaScript or Python.

You can run n8n yourself. The self-hosted Community Edition is free and comes under the Sustainable Use License, which n8n describes as fair-code: the source code is public, but use is limited to your own internal business purposes. If you’d rather not look after a server, there’s n8n Cloud on a paid plan.

On top of it we build processes your team uses like finished software, set up for your business at the price of a standard solution.

Where it pays off

  • Customer data should stay on your own servers or in the EU, including while it moves between programs.
  • You’ve built a few workflows already, but nobody remembers which one does what. Errors only come to light when a customer rings.
  • Your processes need more than if-this-then-that: loops, matching, AI steps and sign-off by a person.
  • Lots of runs a day: with the self-hosted Community Edition you only pay for the server.

Self-hosted or n8n Cloud

Both work. We recommend whatever suits your data and your team.

How we work with n8n

  1. Where you are, where you’re going Day 0

    We look at your processes and, if you have them, your existing workflows. Whatever holds up stays.

    30 minutes, free

  2. Prototype workflow after the call

    A first workflow runs in a test environment, with a real example from your business.

    free

  3. Instance and workflows Week 1–2

    We set up n8n with backups and an error workflow that reports every failed run. Then we build the first workflows.

    from €4,900, fixed price

  4. Handover end of week 2

    Every workflow gets a short description of what it does and whom it alerts when it fails. Then we train your team.

What it costs

  • Intro call30 minutesfree

    You tell us where things get stuck, and we dig deeper. Afterwards you know where AI is worth it for you. No risk, no obligation.

  • First prototypeafter the callfree

    After the call you see what AI can do with a real example from your business. So you’re deciding on something you can get your hands on, not on slides.

  • Sprint2 weeks, fixed pricefrom €4,900

    In two weeks you get a finished result at a fixed price, and your team uses it straight away. Then you decide whether another sprint follows. No long tie-in.

  • Ongoing sparringoptional, 90 minutes + monthly report, minimum 6 monthsfrom €490 / month

    Once a month, 90 minutes one-to-one, followed by a monthly report. Over at least six months we can plan further ahead, spot new opportunities early and see what really works.

Limits and responsibility

  • We aren’t an official partner of n8n GmbH. We use n8n where it suits the job and tell you when another tool or our own code fits better.
  • The Community Edition is meant for your own internal processes. If customers or partners are to build or edit workflows themselves, you need a commercial licence from n8n. We check that up front.
  • A self-hosted server needs updates and backups. Who does that is agreed in writing before the first workflow goes live.
  • Steps that move money or write to customers wait for a person to sign them off.

Frequently asked questions

What does n8n itself cost?

Self-hosted, the Community Edition is free and you pay for the server. If you need features such as single sign-on or Git version control, a paid edition comes on top. The current prices are on n8n’s website.

We already have workflows. Will you take them over?

Yes. We go through them, tidy up, add error alerts and write down what each one does. Some we rebuild, when that’s quicker than patching.

Do we need an n8n consultant in-house afterwards?

No. Day to day, you need one person who knows where the error alerts arrive. Your team can make small changes after training, and we help with bigger ones.

Is n8n always the right choice?

No. For two or three simple connections a ready-made cloud service is often enough, and some processes run more reliably as a program of their own. We’ll tell you what we’d use and why.
