Open-source data integration engineered for AI agents and analytics
Connect databases, SaaS tools, files, and APIs to warehouses, lakes, and other destinations without writing ingestion code for each source.
Define a custom connector declaratively in minutes when no prebuilt one exists, then use it like any other connector in your pipelines.
Serve warehouse data to AI agents through an MCP server with inherited access controls, so agents get context without bypassing governance.
Choose fully managed Cloud, a hybrid model where pipelines run in your own VPC, or the self-hosted open-source core.
Open-source workflow automation built for AI agents and technical teams
Build automations with a visual node editor, then insert JavaScript or Python code nodes when you need custom logic.
Connect to 500+ native services, any REST API via HTTP nodes, and any agent or coding assistant through MCP.
Run agents alongside regular steps, inspect every decision, and add structured inputs, guardrails and human approval steps.
Watch workflows execute live, open past runs, replay a run with mocked data and re-run just the step that failed.
Unmatched ecosystem of app connectors and reliability, but significantly more expensive and lacks n8n's self-hosting freedom.
