n8n Self-Hosted in Detail
n8n is the open-source workflow automation platform that gained massive popularity in 2025/2026 — as a free alternative to Zapier and Make that you self-host. On your root server n8n runs without workflow limits, without execution restrictions and without monthly SaaS fees. With over 400 integrations (Gmail, Slack, Notion, Airtable, OpenAI, databases, HTTP, webhooks and many more) you automate complex business processes visually via drag and drop. Especially exciting: n8n has first-class AI nodes for OpenAI, Ollama, Hugging Face and LangChain — build AI agents and RAG pipelines directly in your workflows. Installation via Docker takes under 5 minutes. NVMe SSDs ensure fast workflow execution, and the Frankfurt location offers low latencies to all European APIs. Your workflow data and API keys stay securely on your server.

Answers to the most important questions
Easiest via Docker: a docker-compose.yml with n8n and PostgreSQL, then docker-compose up — done. Setup takes under 5 minutes. Alternatively you can install n8n directly with npm or as a systemd service.
n8n Community Edition is completely free and open source. You only pay for the server — from 4.99€/month. The Enterprise Edition with SSO, audit logs and advanced permissions is available optionally as a license.
Yes, that is one of the main reasons for n8n! There are native AI nodes for OpenAI, Ollama (local LLMs), Hugging Face, LangChain and more. You can build AI agents, create RAG pipelines and integrate AI into any workflow.
Self-hosted n8n has no workflow limits, no execution caps and no monthly SaaS costs. You have full control over your data, can write custom nodes and are not dependent on a cloud provider.
