Most AI agents are a demo that worked once. I build the other kind: tool use, retries, guardrails, logging, and an evaluation loop so you can tell when quality drifts instead of finding out from a customer.

Self-hosted on n8n, so the workflows, the data and the bill all stay yours.

n8n deployed on infrastructure you own, or onto your existing host

Agents with real tool access: your CRM, your database, your documents, your APIs

Guardrails: input validation, output checks, retry and fallback paths, human approval where the stakes justify it

Evaluation and logging, so quality is a number you can watch rather than a feeling

Documentation and a live handover

WHERE THIS BEATS A MAKE BUILD High volume, where per-operation pricing starts to hurt. Anything needing full control of your data. Workloads you would rather own than rent.
