80% of business automations go unused after 30 days. Here's why.

They're built in isolation.

Cool demos, fancy dashboards — but zero adoption.

Because they don't fit how people actually work.

We've seen it firsthand: restaurants, retailers, small teams drowning in new tools they never open.

At Flowfoundry, we design automation that integrates, not interrupts.

Traditional Approach

  • Requires learning a new platform
  • Forces behavior change
  • Another dashboard to check
  • Built without understanding workflow
  • Team resistance and low adoption

Flowfoundry Method

  • Works in tools you already use
  • Zero training required
  • Invisible automation layer
  • Built around existing workflow
  • Immediate adoption and ROI

"Flowfoundry automated our entire customer onboarding process in under a week. What used to take our team 3 hours per client now happens instantly. The ROI was immediate."

Operations Manager, Dublin SaaS Startup

Our Philosophy: Integration Beats Innovation

The best automation is the one your team actually uses.

We start every project with a Friction Audit — watching how your team really works.

What devices they use, where they communicate, what tools they check daily.

Then we forge automations that plug into those habits:

If you live in WhatsApp, we automate inside WhatsApp.

If your world runs on text messages, we send results there.

If your team checks one dashboard every morning, that's where our AI lives.

No new systems. No extra logins.

Just a smarter version of what already works.

Three pillars that power your automation engine

Automation with n8n

We build workflows that connect your tools and eliminate manual tasks. Email to CRM, invoices to accounting, form to Slack—all automatic.

  • Self-hosted or cloud n8n
  • No vendor lock-in
  • EU data compliance

AI in the loop

Add intelligence to your workflows. Summarize emails, classify tickets, extract data, generate content—AI where it matters.

  • OpenAI, Claude, local models
  • Document processing
  • Smart routing & decisions

APIs & Managed Support

Custom integrations for any system. Plus ongoing support to keep your workflows running smoothly as your business evolves.

  • REST, GraphQL, webhooks
  • Custom node development
  • 24/7 monitoring & updates

What We Build

Smart, everyday automations that actually get used.

n8n Workflow Automation

Frequently asked questions

Everything you need to know about working with us

n8n gives you full control and zero vendor lock-in. You can self-host it on your own infrastructure or use n8n Cloud. No per-task fees, no surprise bills, and full access to your data. Plus, it's open-source—if you ever want to move on, you own everything. Perfect for EU data compliance and cost predictability as you scale.
Both! You can self-host n8n on your own servers (AWS, DigitalOcean, etc.) or use n8n Cloud. We handle the setup, configuration, and deployment either way. For our Managed Forge package, we monitor and maintain your instance 24/7 so you never have to worry about uptime or updates.
Most Starter Forge projects go live in 3-5 days. Pro Forge projects typically take 1-2 weeks depending on complexity. We move fast because n8n is our specialty—we know the platform inside out and have pre-built templates for common workflows. After your audit, we'll give you an exact timeline.
That's exactly what our 15-minute audit is for. We ask about your daily tasks, pain points, and bottlenecks. From there, we identify quick wins and ROI opportunities. Most teams have 3-5 workflows that could be automated immediately—we help you prioritize what will save the most time and reduce errors first.
Absolutely not. Everything we build is yours—workflows, documentation, credentials, everything. n8n is open-source, so there's no proprietary tech. If you ever want to take over or work with another agency, you can. That said, we hope our support and expertise keep you with us long-term.
