What platforms does n8n support?

Source: https://n8n.io/pricing/

Can n8n be self-hosted?

Yes. n8n can be deployed cloud / SaaS, on-premise and self-hosted, so it does not have to run on the vendor's infrastructure.

Source: https://n8n.io/pricing/

What does n8n integrate with?

We have confirmed 34 integrations for n8n, including Salesforce, Slack, HubSpot, Stripe, Typeform, Mautic, Airtable and Asana, plus 26 more. This is what we could verify from public sources, so the vendor may support others we have not indexed.

Source: https://n8n.io/pricing/

What security certifications does n8n have?

We have independently confirmed SOC 2 and GDPR for n8n. Certifications we do not list are ones we have not been able to verify from public sources, which is not the same as n8n not holding them. Always confirm compliance directly before you rely on it.

Source: https://n8n.io/legal/security/

Is n8n open source?

Yes. n8n is published under the SEE LICENSE IN LICENSE.md licence, a copyleft licence, so check its terms before embedding it in a closed-source product. Licence terms can change between releases, so verify against the repository for the version you intend to use.

The vioscaleAI score: one lens on the evidence

Not user reviews and not a paid placement: a confidence-weighted blend of the independent signals below (adoption, activity, security posture, and more), which you can sort and re-weight yourself. Vendors can correct their listing but can never move their rank, and stars are weighted low as a vanity metric. It is one way to read the evidence for n8n, not the verdict.
