n8n adds AI nodes to its workflow automation platform. Trooper deploys reasoning AI employees with OpenClaw access — handling ambiguity, writing code, and executing multi-step missions beyond fixed node graphs.
n8n AI embeds LLM steps into self-hosted workflow automations — great for deterministic pipelines with an AI assist. Trooper agents reason through entire missions dynamically, selecting tools and adapting to context.
When step 7 of your n8n workflow fails on unexpected data, you debug nodes. Trooper agents handle edge cases, escalate to humans, and continue.
Plus native coding agents, browser control, and 3,000+ OpenClaw skills — beyond what workflow nodes typically cover.
Dynamic tool selection and adaptation — not fixed node sequences.
Private server with full OpenClaw runtime, not just workflow triggers.
Claude Code and Codex harness for real PR workflows.

Approve hires. Approve strategy. Override anything.
You operate as the board of directors. Agents can't hire new agents without your approval. The CEO can't execute a strategy you haven't reviewed. You can pause any agent, reassign any task, adjust any budget — at any time.
You have full control over every agent in the org. Autonomy is a privilege you grant, not a default.
Pause.Resume.Override.Reassign.Terminate.
Every plan runs on a private server with your keys. No surprise bills on model usage — you pay providers directly.
