Self-hosted setup
n8n runs on your own server or ours, with backups and upgrade paths documented. No per-task pricing, no third party holding your credentials.
n8n Workflows
Most of the work a team wants automated does not need an agent. It needs the CRM, the inbox, the spreadsheet and the billing system to finally talk to each other. We build that in n8n, self-hosted, so the flows and the data stay with you.
n8n runs on your own server or ours, with backups and upgrade paths documented. No per-task pricing, no third party holding your credentials.
We inventory the systems involved, the fields that matter, and the failure cases each connection has to survive before it is trusted with live data.
Every workflow is exported to source control, so a change is reviewable and a bad change is one revert away.
Your team gets a written map of what runs when, what breaks it, and how to fix it, so continuing without us is a choice rather than a risk.
One invoice-intake flow, as it is documented at handover.
flow invoice-intake schedule: every 10 min
trigger IMAP - inbox "billing@" filter: has attachment
step 1 extract PDF fields vendor, total, due_date, po
step 2 match PO in ERP no match -> route to finance queue
step 3 create draft bill status: pending approval
step 4 notify #finance includes link + extracted fields
on error retry x3, then email owner with the raw attachment
owner finance ops runbook: /docs/invoice-intake.md
Illustrative example, not a real client workflow.
A single well-scoped flow — one trigger, two or three systems, a documented failure path — is usually live within two to four weeks, including the time spent watching it run on real traffic before anyone relies on it. Flows that need a new integration or messy source data take longer, and we say so before starting.
No. n8n is the wiring between the tools you already pay for, not a replacement for them. Your CRM stays your CRM and your accounting system stays your accounting system; the automation removes the copy-paste between them.
Every flow has a written failure path: retries with backoff for transient errors, then an alert to a named owner with the original payload attached. Nothing is discarded silently, so a failed run can be replayed once the cause is fixed.
The n8n instance runs on infrastructure you control, credentials stay in its encrypted store, and the data only reaches the systems already involved in the process. There is no third-party automation vendor holding your keys or a copy of your records.
If it happens more than twice a week and follows rules a person could write down, it is a candidate.
