Question 1

Is FlowFn free?

Accepted Answer

Yes — FlowFn has a free forever plan with core workflow automation features. No credit card is required to get started.

Question 2

Which AI models does FlowFn support?

Accepted Answer

FlowFn supports 70+ models from providers like OpenAI, Anthropic, Google, and many open-source and hosted endpoints, so you can build AI workflows on the stack you already trust.

Question 3

What are credits and how are they used?

Accepted Answer

Credits are FlowFn's usage currency. Each workflow run consumes credits based on the steps involved — basic triggers cost less, AI model calls cost more. Your plan includes a monthly credit grant, and you can always top up as needed.

Question 4

Do I need to know how to code?

Accepted Answer

Not at all. FlowFn is built for non-technical users and developers alike. The visual builder and AI Workflow Builder let you automate anything without writing code. If you do want to write code, you can use custom code steps.

Question 5

How is FlowFn different from Zapier?

Accepted Answer

Zapier is the broadest integration library; FlowFn pairs deep workflow automation with native AI, built-in forms, and a live data visualizer — tools you’d add Zapier Tables, Zapier Forms, or third parties to get. We also use credit-based pricing instead of per-task, so AI-heavy workflows are predictable.

Question 6

How is FlowFn different from Make (Integromat)?

Accepted Answer

Make has a deep visual canvas with a steep learning curve. FlowFn lets you describe a workflow in English and have the AI draft it, then refine it in the same visual builder — and includes forms, dashboards, and AI inside the platform, not as add-ons.

Question 7

How is FlowFn different from n8n?

Accepted Answer

n8n is the developer’s pick — open source, code-friendly, self-hostable. FlowFn is hosted-first, AI-native, and accessible to non-engineers, so you can ship without DevOps and share workflows across the whole team.

Question 8

Can I bring my own AI API keys?

Accepted Answer

Yes. You can use your own OpenAI, Anthropic, Gemini, or other API keys for AI steps. This gives you full control over costs and model access. FlowFn handles the orchestration and workflow logic.

Question 9

Is my data secure?

Accepted Answer

Yes. FlowFn uses AES-256-GCM to encrypt credentials, API keys, and fields you mark as sensitive in your workflows. Sign-in is passwordless via email OTP with optional TOTP 2FA. Workflow run history is scoped by your plan, and you can delete workflows, forms, or your entire account at any time.
