Overview

What is n8n?

n8n is an open-source workflow automation tool — the self-hosted answer to Zapier and Make. You build automations visually: a trigger fires (a form submission, a schedule, a new row in a database) and each step after it calls an API, moves data around, branches on a condition, or asks a model to write something. There are 400+ ready-made integrations, and anything without one can still be reached over a plain HTTP request.

The catch with the hosted version is the meter. Automation tools bill per task or per execution, so the workflow that checks something every five minutes is also the one that quietly triples your invoice. Self-hosted n8n has no meter — it runs as many workflows as your server can handle, and the price is the price of the server.

Running it yourself normally means wrestling with Docker, a database and an SSL certificate before you automate anything at all. On livemy.app you pick the n8n template, click deploy, and get a live URL in about two minutes. Your workflows and credentials stay on your own server, and you can point your own domain at it whenever you're ready.

Why deploy here

Same app, no meter running

These tools are free and open source. What you normally pay for is someone else's server — and their pricing page.

Unlimited executions

One flat price for the project instead of Zapier's per-task billing. Run a workflow every minute if you want — the bill doesn't move.

Your workflows, your data

API keys, customer records and run history never leave your server. Nothing is copied into an automation vendor's account along the way.

No maintenance rabbit hole

SSL, storage and redeploys are handled for you. New n8n release? One click and you're on it — no server to log into.

How it works

Three steps, about two minutes

01

Pick the n8n template

Choose it from the gallery. Nothing to download, nothing to configure — the template already knows how n8n should run.

02

Click deploy

livemy.app builds it and gives you a live URL with SSL. Storage is attached automatically, so your data survives every restart.

03

Make it yours

Connect a custom domain and redeploy anytime in one click — from the dashboard, or triggered over MCP by the AI tool you already use.

FAQ

Self-hosting n8n, answered

How much does it cost to self-host n8n?
Free to try — the Free plan is $0 and gives you one project on a livemy.site subdomain. Maker is $10/mo and adds a custom domain, 10 GB and a 99.5% uptime SLA; Pro is $25/mo. Daily backups are a $5/mo add-on. No plan charges per workflow run.
Is self-hosted n8n hard to maintain?
Not here. The template ships with storage and free SSL already wired up. When a new n8n version lands you click redeploy in the dashboard — or trigger it over MCP from your AI tool. There's no server to patch and nothing to install on your computer.
Can I use my own domain?
Yes, on Maker ($10/mo) and above. Point your domain at the project and livemy.app issues the certificate for you. On the Free plan your n8n lives on a livemy.site subdomain — SSL is included either way.
What happens to my data?
Workflows, credentials and run history sit in the database attached to your project, on your own server. Add the $5/mo backups option for daily snapshots, or export everything from n8n whenever you like.
