Build a real tool.Sell it like a product.
n8n Apps let you assemble an interactive frontend from forms, tables, charts and buttons, then wire the logic to your own n8n workflows. The result is a working tool with a real backend, sold behind a paywall under your brand. No app framework to learn, no servers to manage.
A frontend you build from blocks
You assemble the interface from ready-made blocks. A form to collect input, a table to show rows of data, a chart (bar, line, pie or doughnut) to visualize a result, a button to trigger an action, plus metric cards, status badges, markdown text, a chat block and more. Drag them onto the grid, arrange them, label them.
There is no React to write and no frontend to deploy. The app you build runs inside your storefront on your own domain.
This is the canonical place to understand what an n8n App is. Use-case pages point back here for the mechanics.
The logic runs on n8n workflows
When someone submits a form or clicks a button in your app, the block POSTs to one of your own n8n webhooks and displays the response it sends back. That is where the real work happens: call an API, run a calculation, query a source, transform the data, and return a result to the interface. Blocks can even feed each other, so one result becomes the input to the next.
Because the logic lives in n8n, you can build genuinely useful tools rather than static pages. A pricing calculator, a report generator, a lookup tool, a small internal dashboard you decide to sell.
You keep full control of the workflow, and your customers only ever see the polished frontend.
Then put a price on it
An n8n App is a product like any other on the platform. Sell access as a one-time purchase or as a recurring subscription billed through Stripe.
The app lives behind the paywall, so only customers who have bought it can run the workflows behind it. Access is tied to their account, the same as a course or a download.
Payouts go to your own Stripe account, and the platform takes no cut of your revenue beyond Stripe's standard rates.
What goes into an n8n App
Frontend blocks on the surface, workflow logic underneath.
Forms
Collect input from the user and pass it straight into your n8n workflow as the trigger.
Tables
Display rows of data returned by a workflow, so the tool can show real results, not static text.
Charts
Visualize the output of a workflow with charts the user can read at a glance.
Buttons
Trigger a workflow on demand, so a click runs the logic and updates the interface.
n8n logic
Every action runs a workflow you control, where the real calculations and integrations happen.
Paywall
Sell access one-time or as a subscription, with access tied to the customer's account.
On its own domain
Serve a single n8n app on its own dedicated custom domain, separate from your store, with single sign-on so a buyer signed in on your store is recognized there, all under your brand.
