Automations fail quietly
A webhook times out, a token expires, an API changes, and nobody notices until a client asks why their leads stopped. And if someone deletes a workflow, it's just gone.
Without it
- Errors nobody reads A red dot in a dashboard you never open.
- Alerts that say nothing "Workflow failed" and a link. Now go figure out why.
- The same alert fifty times One broken node floods the channel until everyone mutes it.
- No undo A workflow gets edited or deleted and the old version is gone for good.
With it
- Plain English cards What broke, the likely cause and the fix, posted to Slack.
- The fix one click away Copy the full context for whoever fixes it, or open a fix session with it already loaded.
- Repeats threaded The second failure goes under the first card, not on top of it.
- Every workflow backed up A private copy of every workflow every six hours, secrets stripped out.
How it works
What lands in Slack
- What brokeThe step that writes to your CRM, three times in the last hour.
- Likely causeThe CRM login expired. Reconnecting it fixes all three.
- TriageReal bug, needs you: reconnect the login, then rerun the three leads.
- ButtonsCopy context and Fix it, right on the card.
Sample report, for illustration.

Who it's for
Agencies and businesses running more automations than anyone can watch, especially across client accounts.
- It fits if you run n8n, in the cloud or on your own server.
- It fits if you have twenty or more workflows doing real work.
- It fits if contractors or clients have edit access to your automations.
- It fits if you've ever found out about a broken automation from a client.
It's not for you if you run a handful of simple zaps. Managing developers too? Pairs with Dev Team Autopilot.
Already running
- 261 workflows backed up every six hours
- 5 automation servers watched
- 42 workflows reporting failures to it
Forty two of the automations I run for myself and my clients report into this, and all 261 get backed up. The backups are why I can give a developer real access to a client's automations without worrying.
Questions
What does it cost to run each month?
The monthly fee covers me running it and tuning the rules. GitHub and Slack stay on your own plans.
How long does setup take?
About 7 days. Most of it is pointing every workflow at the handler and writing rules for the failures you actually get.
Does it fix things on its own?
No. It diagnoses read only and tells you what to do. The fix is one click away, but it's your click.
Does it work with Make or Zapier?
It's built for n8n today. Bring your setup to the call and I'll tell you straight if it fits.
What do you need from me?
Admin access to your automation servers, your Slack, and a private GitHub repo for the backups.
