Consultant, integrator or n8n developer: which one do you need?
The three words describe three different roles. An n8n consultant decides what is worth automating and what is better left as it is. An n8n integrator wires your tools together using the blocks that already exist. A developer writes code when no block fits. In practice, an automation that holds up over time needs all three: I do all three, which saves you from restating the brief every time the person on the other side changes.
Do you work across France, and remotely?
Yes. I am an n8n freelancer based in Paris and I work remotely across France, as well as in Belgium and French-speaking Switzerland. Scoping happens over video, review runs on a URL you can open whenever you want, and I travel for workshops when the project calls for it. Your n8n workflows stay hosted in Europe.
What can you automate with n8n?
Any repetitive process that connects several tools: CRM sync, email follow-up, prospecting, monitoring and alerts, content distribution, payment reminders, reporting. If a task means copying data from one tool to another by hand, it can almost always be automated. The scoping call is there to spot the task with the best return on your time.
Self-hosted n8n or cloud?
Both are possible. Self-hosting keeps your data on your own server; the cloud is faster to set up. The choice is made during scoping, based on your data sensitivity and your volume.
Do I keep my workflows?
Yes. You get the exported files, admin access and the documentation. You can take back control or hand the workflows to another team at any time.
What if a workflow breaks?
Every workflow ships with explicit error handling: retries, logs and alerts on failure, so you are warned before your customers are. A monthly support plan, on quote, covers monitoring, fixes and adaptations when a third-party tool changes.
How much does an automation cost?
Scope is framed in 30 minutes. A first, focused need often fits in a Sprint from €400; a full pipeline is priced on quote, depending on the tools to connect and the error cases to cover. Monthly support is also on quote. Everything is set before we start, with no surprises along the way.
Do I need a technical team on my side?
No. The workflow is designed, tested, deployed and documented end to end, from scoping to production. You do not need an in-house developer. If you already have a technical team, I come in as extra support on the automation side.
Is this different from an AI agent?
Yes. This page is about process automation and making your tools talk to each other. For an assistant that converses with your teams or customers, see the AI agent developer page.
