n8n
Open-source workflow automation that can be self-hosted — combines visual building with code extensibility for teams that want full control over their automation infrastructure.
Why It Matters
n8n can inject JavaScript or Python into any workflow step, call internal APIs, and run entirely on your own servers. For teams that need automation without sending data to third parties, it's essential.
