n8n workflow automation and RPA
Repetitive work between apps comes in two kinds. Where the apps have APIs, a workflow tool like n8n can move the data: save a new lead, send an alert, build a report, route an approval. Where a system has no API and someone has to click through screens, a software robot (RPA) can do the clicking. We set up both, and we'll tell you honestly when Apps Script or a direct integration would be simpler and cheaper.
Who it's for
- Teams already using n8n who need workflows built, fixed or made reliable
- Businesses that want self-hosted automation instead of per-task fees
- Staff who spend hours on data entry, report downloads or supplier, marketplace and admin portals
What we build
- n8n workflows: lead capture, notifications, reporting and approval flows
- n8n set-up, maintenance and fixes to existing workflows
- RPA robots for data entry, report downloads and form submissions
- Portal automation for systems that offer no API
- Alerts when a workflow or robot fails, so problems don't go unnoticed
How we choose the tool
We've written a detailed comparison of n8n, Zapier, Make and Apps Script, and we use it to choose the right tool for each project: n8n when you need many app connections and want to self-host, Apps Script when the work lives in Google Workspace, a direct integration when volume or reliability demands it.
RPA is the last resort, used only when a system offers no API, because screen-based robots break when the screen changes. We tell you that before you commit.
How we work
- Free discovery call
- Walk through the task as it's done today
- Recommend the tool: n8n, RPA, Apps Script or a direct integration
- Build, test with real data, hand over with documentation
When this is not the right fit
We'd rather tell you now than sell you the wrong thing.
- Everything lives in Google Sheets and Gmail. Apps Script is usually cheaper. → Apps Script automation
- The task changes every week. Automation pays off for work that repeats the same way.
- The portal's terms of use forbid automated access. We check this before building a robot.
Frequently Asked Questions
Everything you need to know
It depends. n8n can be self-hosted, so you avoid per-execution fees, though you then pay for and maintain a server. It handles complex flows well. Zapier and Make are quicker to start. We compare them for your case on the call.
Robotic process automation: software that operates a screen the way a person would, clicking, typing and downloading. It's useful for systems that have no API.
Yes. We review them, fix what breaks, and document them so your team can follow what each one does.
