How the n8n Startup Plan works
The n8n startup plan discount is a specific offer for early-stage companies to access Business-tier features at a 50% reduction. Typically, the Business plan costs ā¬667 per month when billed annually. With the discount, your cost drops to approximately ā¬333 per month.
Eligibility Criteria
To qualify for this discount, your startup must meet two main requirements:
- Team Size: You must have fewer than 20 employees.
- Funding: You must have raised less than ā¬5M (approx. $5M) in total funding.
Why the Business Plan matters
While n8n has a powerful free tier, the Business plan (and thus the Startup discount) unlocks critical features for growing teams:
- Git Integration: Version control your workflows like code. This allows for staging and production environments, preventing accidental breaks in live automations.
- SSO (Single Sign-On): Secure your automation hub with Okta, Google, or Microsoft credentials. Essential as you scale your team beyond the founders.
- External Secrets: Keep your API keys in a professional vault rather than stored within nodes.
- Advanced Execution Control: Higher limits for complex, data-heavy workflows that would cost thousands on Zapier.
