Introducing WorkflowAI: Generate n8n Workflows with AI in Seconds
I have some exciting news to share today.
After helping hundreds of people build n8n workflows over the past few years, I’ve noticed the same pattern over and over:
Everyone knows what they want to automate. Very few know how to build it in n8n.
The Problem with n8n (That Nobody Talks About)
Don’t get me wrong—I love n8n. It’s the most powerful automation platform I’ve ever used.
But let’s be honest about the learning curve:
- 400+ nodes to choose from (overwhelming for beginners)
- Complex configurations for each node (API endpoints, authentication, data transformation)
- Hours of debugging when things don’t work
- Trial and error to find the right node combinations
- No guidance on best practices or error handling
I’ve watched brilliant business owners spend 8+ hours trying to build what should be a 20-minute workflow.
They know exactly what they want:
“When someone fills out my contact form, create a Slack notification, add them to my CRM, and send a welcome email.”
But translating that simple sentence into 15+ connected n8n nodes? That’s the hard part.
Introducing WorkflowAI
Today, I’m launching WorkflowAI—an AI-powered tool that generates complete n8n workflows from plain English descriptions.
Here’s how it works:
Step 1: Describe What You Want
"When someone fills out my Typeform,
send me a Slack message,
add them to Airtable,
and send a welcome email via SendGrid"Step 2: AI Generates the Workflow
In under 30 seconds, WorkflowAI:
- ✅ Selects the right n8n nodes (Typeform Trigger, Slack, Airtable, SendGrid)
- ✅ Configures each node properly
- ✅ Connects them in the right order
- ✅ Adds error handling
- ✅ Includes data transformation where needed
- ✅ Follows n8n best practices
Step 3: Download & Import
You get a ready-to-use JSON file that you can import directly into your n8n instance.
No manual configuration. No guesswork. No 8-hour debugging sessions.
What Makes WorkflowAI Different?
1. It Actually Understands n8n
Unlike ChatGPT or generic AI tools, WorkflowAI is specifically trained on:
- All 400+ n8n nodes
- Real workflow examples
- n8n best practices
- Common pitfalls and how to avoid them
- Authentication patterns
- Data transformation techniques
When you ask for a “CRM integration,” it knows you probably mean:
- Create/update contacts
- Handle duplicates
- Map custom fields
- Add error notifications
2. Production-Ready, Not Prototypes
Every generated workflow includes:
- Error handling: Catch failures and send notifications
- Data validation: Check inputs before processing
- Retry logic: Auto-retry failed API calls
- Logging: Track what happened and when
- Best practices: Follows n8n conventions
You’re not getting a “proof of concept.” You’re getting a workflow you can deploy today.
3. Debug & Optimize Existing Workflows
Already have n8n workflows that aren’t working right? WorkflowAI can:
- Analyze your workflow and find bugs
- Explain what each part does (in plain English)
- Suggest optimizations to make it faster/cheaper
- Fix common mistakes automatically
Upload your workflow JSON, and WorkflowAI will tell you:
“Your workflow is making 47 API calls when it could make 3. Here’s how to fix it.”
Who Is This For?
WorkflowAI is perfect if you:
- ✅ Use n8n (or want to start)
- ✅ Know what you want to automate, but not how to build it
- ✅ Spend too much time debugging workflows
- ✅ Want to move faster without compromising quality
- ✅ Are tired of reading documentation for every single node
It’s especially valuable for:
- Business owners who need automation but don’t have time to learn n8n
- Agencies building workflows for clients (10x faster delivery)
- n8n beginners who want to learn by seeing real examples
- Power users who want to prototype ideas quickly

What’s Next?
Right now, WorkflowAI is in pre-launch. I’m building the MVP and want to validate demand before going all-in.
If you’re interested, join the waitlist.
Here’s what you’ll get by joining:
- ⚡ Early access before public launch
- 🎁 50% off for life (first 100 signups only)
- 🗳️ Vote on features (what should we build first?)
- 📧 Behind-the-scenes updates (see how we’re building it)
- 🎟️ Beta access (test it free before launch)
We’re aiming to launch in Q2 2026 (April-June).
FAQ
Q: Will this work with my self-hosted n8n instance? A: Yes! WorkflowAI generates standard n8n JSON that works with both n8n Cloud and self-hosted instances.
Q: What if the AI generates a workflow that doesn’t work? A: Rare, but if it happens, our support team will manually fix it for you (Pro+ plans). We also have a “thumbs down” button to improve the AI over time.
Q: Can I edit the generated workflows? A: Absolutely. You get full JSON that you can edit, extend, or customize however you want. Think of it as a smart starting point.
Q: Does this replace n8n? A: No! WorkflowAI generates n8n workflows. You still need an n8n instance (Cloud or self-hosted) to run them.
Q: What if n8n builds this feature themselves? A: They might! But we’re focused on being the best AI workflow generator, not just the first. We’ll keep improving, adding templates, debugging tools, and optimization features that go beyond basic generation.
Q: Can I use this for clients? A: Yes! Pro and Enterprise plans include commercial use rights. Generate workflows for as many clients as you want.
Q: Is there a free plan? A: Not initially. We’re starting with paid plans to ensure quality support and fast development. However, the 3-day free trial gives you full access to test everything.
Why I’m Building This
Over the past 2 years, I’ve:
- Helped 500+ people with n8n workflows (via email, Discord, blog comments)
- Answered the same questions 100+ times
- Watched talented people give up on automation because n8n was “too hard”
I realized the knowledge gap isn’t technical—it’s translation.
People know what they want. They just don’t know how to translate it into n8n nodes.
WorkflowAI bridges that gap.
It’s not about replacing your thinking. It’s about accelerating the boring, repetitive part so you can focus on strategy.
