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.

A model-agnostic Ruby framework for building AI agents and automations
Use OpenAI, Claude or Gemini — or plug in your own provider — without locking your app to one model.
Reusable classes for single generation tasks such as code from description or a description from code.
Operations that supply inputs to or act on the output of generators, like writing a file or running a command.
Autonomous entities with triggers such as file changes or time intervals — for example an agent that runs tests and fixes failing code.

Unmatched ecosystem of app connectors and reliability, but significantly more expensive and lacks n8n's self-hosting freedom.
