Building Your First AI Agent with n8n

Frank Nillard, guides you through building your first AI agent using n8n.
Jun 19, 2025

AI automation is becoming more accessible than ever, thanks to platforms like n8n that allow you to build powerful workflows without writing a single line of code. For AI engineers, learning to harness no-code tools opens up new possibilities for rapid prototyping, automation, and collaboration across technical and non-technical teams. This session explores how to create an AI agent that automates typical workplace tasks—without touching a code editor.

In this hands-on code-along webinar, Frank Nillard, will guide you through building your first AI agent using n8n. You’ll learn how to get started with this no-code platform, create an AI agent that automates any sorts of workflows, and walk through a real-world use case from start to finish. This session is perfect for AI engineers curious about low-code/no-code approaches to building and deploying intelligent automation.

Key Takeaways:

  • Learn how to use n8n to build no-code AI workflows.
  • Discover how to create an AI agent without writing code.
  • Explore a real-world scenario of automating tasks with AI.
