## In brief
n8n connects APIs, data, code and AI agents into automated workflows. A workflow can fetch data, analyse it with AI and write the result to another application. Billing counts the full execution, not each individual step.

Billed annually, Cloud Starter costs EUR 20 per month with 2,500 monthly executions; Pro starts at EUR 50 with 10,000. AI Assistant credits are a separate allowance. The Community Edition is free to self-host, with hosting and model usage paid separately. Business adds SSO, separate environments and Git version control; Enterprise offers custom terms for cloud or your own infrastructure.


## Limits
Billing counts a complete workflow execution, not each individual step. Starter includes 2500 and Pro 10000 executions monthly. AI Assistant credits are separate; your own model or hosting costs may be additional.
