n8n workflows connected to
the systems you already run.

n8n AI workflow automation for teams who want workflows they can see, edit and own. It's a visual automation tool you can host yourself. We design your workflows and connect them to your CRM, inbox, spreadsheets and internal tools. We add AI where it helps, and run them on your servers or on n8n cloud.

What we do

PixelCrayons designs, builds and runs workflows in n8n, a visual automation tool you can host on your own servers. Each workflow connects the systems you already use. We run it on your servers or n8n's cloud. A person checks the steps that need judgement, and we monitor it once live. We work direct for brands and white-label for agencies.

actually includes.

Workflow design, mapped to real n8n nodes

Discovery maps your process step by step. Then we turn it into n8n's own parts: triggers, nodes (the boxes on the canvas), branches and error paths. You get a real design, not a vague diagram. If a step is too irregular or needs too much judgement to automate well, the design says so first. Our wider automation work follows the same rule.

Week zero

You choose: your own servers or n8n cloud

Self-hosting puts the workflow on your own servers. You get full control of your data and steady costs at high volume, and your team owns the upgrades. With n8n cloud, it is run for you and faster to start, with less work on your side. We compare the two against your data rules, how often the workflow will run and what your team can manage. Then you choose with the numbers in front of you.

Week zero

Connected to the systems you really use

Your CRM, inbox, spreadsheets, internal tools and AI models are connected as real n8n nodes. Logins are kept in n8n's own secure store, not written into the workflow. Where a system has no ready-made node, we build the connection ourselves or find another way in. Nothing here is a demo: every node is connected to your live account before launch.

Every build

A person approves the important steps

Approval steps sit before anything that matters: a discount above a set amount, a customer email or a change to a key system. A person approves, edits or rejects it inside n8n. The workflow only carries on once they have. Your team keeps the judgement calls and loses the retyping.

Every build

Monitoring, error handling and upgrades

Error workflows alert your team instead of failing silently. A silent failure turns into a client complaint, but an alert gets it fixed before anyone outside notices. We change logins regularly and test n8n upgrades before applying them to a live system. After launch, the usual choice is a light retainer for monitoring and the changes the first month shows up. Running it in-house after handover is fine too. The workflow file and the logins are handed over under the agreed ownership terms.

How it runs

From reviewing your workflow
to ongoing monitoring.

Start

Brief and a call

We sign an NDA, map the process with you and check that n8n is the right tool for it.

Once the brief is complete

Audit and itemised proposal

We confirm the date your proposal arrives. It lists the nodes, the systems they touch, the human checkpoints, where it will run and the price.

Your decision

You sign off

You confirm the scope, the payment and the access we need. Nothing starts before this.

Typically 2 to 3 business days later

The work starts

We connect the first workflow to your systems, on your own servers or n8n cloud, as you chose.

On the date in your proposal

First deliverable

The first workflow runs against real items, supervised and logged. Error handling and monitoring follow, and your team learns to read and extend it.

Inside Prism

Your engagement, week to week,
in one workspace.

Prism is the client workspace where your requests, approvals, tasks and weekly reviews live.

Some engagements include Prism, our client workspace, and your proposal says whether yours does. Where it does, your AI build runs in a workspace you log into: requests, approvals, the task list and the weekly review, with each decision and its expected result written down.

How we report it, in Prism

The queue baseline,
measured before anything is automated.

What you receive in month one

Automation is reported against the queue it replaces. In the first month you receive the process map with every manual step, its owner and its handoffs, the queue baseline recording volume, wait time and error rate as they stand today, and the exception list naming the cases that will stay with a person. Each workflow ships with its run log and its rollback path.

01Process map: each step, its owner, and the handoffs between them
02Queue baseline: volume, wait time and error rate before automation
03Exception list: the cases that stay manual, and who handles them
04Run log: each execution, its outcome, and the failures retried or escalated
05Rollback path: how the manual process resumes if a workflow is paused

Where it runs

Your own servers, n8n cloud
or a different tool.

The workflow review checks n8n is the right tool before anything is built. Then it settles where it runs. You choose, in writing, with the numbers for your case in front of you.

Your situation	Our call	Why
Data storage or legal rules cover what the workflow touches	Self-host on your own servers	The workflow and everything passing through it stay on servers you control, with no third party involved.
High expected run volume	Price self-hosting against n8n cloud	Cloud pricing rises with use, so a busy workflow can cost less self-hosted, even after paying for the server.
Nobody on your team runs servers	n8n cloud	It is run for you and faster to start. Self-hosting means someone looks after the server, the updates and keeping it running.
You already run n8n	Check your setup before adding anything	We find which workflows are solid and which are fragile, and where logins and errors are badly handled.
Your workflows live in Zapier or Make	Rebuild the steps in n8n, test them on real cases, then switch over	The tools don't match step for step, and some workflows are not worth moving yet. We say which.
A simple two-step notification	Usually not n8n	Our wider automation team builds on Zapier, Make or custom code when one of those fits the job better.

Wherever it runs, every workflow comes with an error workflow that alerts your team, and every run is logged.

Questions

Frequently
asked.

n8n is a workflow automation tool. You build the steps on a visual canvas of connected boxes (nodes), not a simple list. Unlike Zapier or Make, its code is open to read and you can host it yourself. So your data never has to pass through someone else's servers. When the visual builder isn't enough, a node can run real JavaScript or Python.

It depends on your data rules, how often workflows run and what your team can manage. Strict data rules point to self-hosting, since everything stays on servers you control. Cloud pricing rises with use, so high volume can favour self-hosting. But then someone looks after the server, the updates and keeping it running. We set out the numbers, and you choose in writing before we build.

Every workflow comes with an error workflow. It alerts your team to the failure and the item that caused it. When a connected API changes, the monitoring retainer covers it. That means regular checks, changing logins and n8n upgrades tested on a test copy first. If you'd rather run it in-house, you get the workflow file and documentation at handover.

Yes to both. On an existing setup, we first check which workflows are solid and which are fragile. We also find gaps in how logins and errors are handled. From Zapier or Make, we rebuild the steps in n8n and test them on real cases before switching over. We'll say so if a workflow isn't worth moving yet.

Choose an n8n agency when you want the workflow designed, built, monitored and handed over as one job. That is what this page scopes. If you want one n8n consultant working inside your own team, hire an n8n developer instead. Not sure n8n is the right tool at all? Discovery will say which platform fits, in writing.

Every project starts with one workflow from your own queue, not a platform rollout. The proposal itemises the nodes built and where it will run, with the server cost if self-hosted. It also lists the human checkpoints and any monitoring retainer. More workflows on the same setup are priced one at a time, once the first has proved itself.

No. Our wider automation team also builds on Zapier, Make and custom code when one of those fits better. A simple two-step notification rarely needs n8n. It is worth it when a process is complex enough, or its data sensitive enough, to justify it.
