n8n Automation scopes one specific workflow — forms into Slack, CRM into email, or similar — and builds it in n8n rather than leaving it to manual copy-paste.
The difference from Zapier or Make is where it runs and how it bills: n8n is open source, so it can sit on your own server with no per-task pricing and no customer data leaving your infrastructure. We deploy it with Docker, or set it up on n8n Cloud if you would rather not run a server. Either way you get error handling, an end-to-end test in your live environment, and a walkthrough plus documentation, so the automation isn’t a black box.
