Why n8n Over Zapier?

Zapier is great for simple automations, but it gets expensive fast and limits what you can do. n8n is self-hosted, open-source, and infinitely more powerful.

What I Build With n8n

🔁 Data Sync Workflows

Keep your CRM, accounting software, spreadsheets, and databases in sync automatically. When something changes in one place, it updates everywhere.

📊 Reporting Pipelines

Pull data from multiple sources, transform it, and push to dashboards, Slack channels, or email reports—on any schedule you want.

🤖 AI-Powered Workflows

Combine n8n with OpenAI/Claude for intelligent automation: categorize support tickets, summarize documents, generate content, analyze sentiment.

📧 Communication Automation

Automated email sequences, Slack notifications, SMS alerts—triggered by webhooks, schedules, or database changes.

🔗 API Integrations

Connect any API, even ones without official integrations. n8n's HTTP node handles anything.

Example: SEO Keyword Mining

I built an n8n workflow that runs every 8 hours to mine keywords from Google Autocomplete:

1. Schedule trigger — Fires 3x daily
2. Query selection — Picks from seed keywords + existing database
3. API calls — Hits Google Autocomplete for suggestions
4. Deduplication — Filters out existing keywords
5. Database insert — Stores new keywords in PostgreSQL
6. Notification — Posts summary to Slack

Result: 100+ new keywords harvested daily with zero manual effort.
