Your Zapier bill went up again, and nobody touched the automation
You are paying per task and paying attention every time a Zap silently fails. We rebuild your workflows on n8n, where a 10-step run counts as one execution, and we own the maintenance so you stop being the on-call engineer for your own tools.

The Problem
Why your automation stack keeps costing more than it should
Every step in a Zap is a billable task, so a single 10-step workflow burns 10 tasks per run and your bill climbs with volume you cannot control.
When a Zap breaks at 2am, you are the one who finds out from an angry client, then spends the morning reverse-engineering what changed.
Adding one more workflow means one more subscription tier, and the pricing jumps land right when you are trying to scale accounts.

What You've Already Tried
What running everything on Zapier actually looks like
Your monthly bill scales with task count, so busy months quietly cost more even when nothing new shipped.
Multi-step workflows multiply fast: five clients times a 10-step Zap is 50 tasks every trigger.
Fixes fall on whoever notices first, usually you, usually after a client already felt the outage.

$3,000 to $80
Monthly bill on one cited migration
Zapier bills each step as a separate task, so the workflows that save the most time are also the ones that cost the most to run. n8n bills per full execution, which is why one documented migration took a recurring automation bill from thousands a month to under a hundred. The savings come from the billing model, not from cutting the work.

What We Build
A done-for-you build on n8n, maintained by us
Migration layer
We audit every live Zap, map its triggers, steps, and outputs, then rebuild it on n8n and test against your real data until the new version matches the old one exactly. Nothing goes live until it behaves the same.
Integration layer
n8n ships around 1,000 native integrations versus Zapier's 6,000-plus and Make's roughly 1,500. We close that gap with the HTTP node, which calls any REST or webhook API directly, so coverage stops being a checkbox count and starts being whatever your stack actually needs.
Logic and maintenance layer
For workflows that need real branching or decisions, we spec the logic with Claude Opus 4.8 and GPT Codex, then hand-review every node. We host, monitor, and repair the workflows on an ongoing basis so maintenance is a service you buy, not a job you inherit.

Results
Why agencies move their automations to us
10 to 1
Billed tasks to executions on a 10-step run
The billing model change is the whole point: a multi-step workflow that cost you a stack of tasks per run now costs one execution.
~1,000 + HTTP
Native integrations plus any API via HTTP node
Missing connectors stop being a wall, because the HTTP node reaches any API your clients use even when no native integration exists.
$3,000 to $80
One cited monthly bill after migrating
You get the cost and control of n8n without hiring for it, because we build, host, and maintain the workflows for you.
