Latenode

Visual automation with JavaScript, AI agents and embedded browser, billed per second of processor consumed

Automatisation

Overview

Latenode is an automation platform combining a visual scenario editor, AI agents, a headless browser and JavaScript code blocks with NPM package access, placing it between Make and n8n in flexibility. The publisher claims over 5,500 integrations covering 1,200 apps and language models, with models included at no API key cost. Billing is neither per-task nor per-operation but per processor second consumed: a light scenario costs very little, a scenario handling large files or piloting a browser costs much more. The free plan includes 10,000 processor seconds per month and 5 active scenarios. The usage-based plan without subscription bills 0.00012 USD per second at the first tier, with decreasing rates down to 0.00005 USD beyond 5 million seconds.

Latenode offers a French website (latenode.com/fr), which is rare on this market, and claims GDPR compliance on all plans plus SOC 2 certification. It does not document an EU hosting region on its pricing page, and unlike n8n it does not offer self-hosted edition for download: the platform stays cloud-only. An API and webhooks let you trigger scenarios from outside. Limits stem from the billing model: processor seconds are hard to estimate before running in production, concurrent execution depends on worker count (3 on usage-based, 10 USD/month per extra worker), and several useful parameters like file size, execution duration and polling frequency are sold as separate monthly add-ons.

Our verdict

Best for SME technical teams who want code flexibility and AI agents in a visual tool, with a French website and solid free tier to start. Avoid if you need a fixed budget known in advance or server installation: processor-second billing is hard to forecast and Latenode has no self-hosted option like n8n.
