AI automation and agents: workflows, coding agents and the tools that connect them
This hub follows the shift from chatting with AI to letting it do work: workflow automation platforms such as Make, Zapier and n8n, AI agents that take actions, coding agents, and the protocols and platforms that connect them.
We explain what each launch makes possible, what it costs, where the risks are, and how a small team could start, with the checks and human approvals that keep automation safe.
Read the explainers to understand the building blocks, then the comparisons to choose a platform.
