Recorded a real SaaS build using Claude Code + n8n (built for a Skool member). Might be helpful for anyone working with AI + workflows. https://youtu.be/ZPiDvUL4B7o

I built a custom integration that lets n8n's AI Workflow Builder use Claude models (Sonnet 4.5, Opus 4.5) without paying per-token API costs. It's working. And it changes everything about how I build automations now. --- 🎬 Watch the Demo (Video Above) In this video, you'll see me: - Configure the connection in n8n's settings - Select my AI model - Generate workflows with Claude — completely free No API key billing. No usage anxiety. Just pure building. --- 📖 Why I Built This When you're designing AI workflows, the real work is iteration: - Test a prompt → tweak it → test again - Add a node → see if the AI gets it - Refine → regenerate → compare results With pay-per-token billing, there's always that voice in your head: "Is this test worth it?" That friction kills creativity. I wanted to remove it completely. --- ✅ What It Looks Like Now I added a new section in n8n's Personal Settings: "AI Builder Connection" - One-click configuration - Choose your model: - Claude Sonnet 4.5 - Claude Sonnet 4.5 (Thinking) - Claude Opus 4.5 (Thinking) - Gemini 3 Pro - Connect once, build unlimited The AI Workflow Builder now feels like a creative partner, not a metered service. --- 🧠 What This Means for Building With this setup, I can: - Generate 50+ workflow variations in one session - Experiment with Opus-level reasoning for complex automations - Iterate freely without watching a billing dashboard - Actually enjoy the building process again It's the difference between "let me think if this is worth testing" and "let's just try it and see." --- 💬 Question for You I'm curious — how do you currently handle AI costs when building workflows? - Do you limit your experiments? - Use cheaper models even when you need more power? - Just accept the cost as part of the process? Drop your thoughts below 👇 --- 🚀 What Are You Building? I always love hearing what others are automating with AI: - Lead gen pipelines? - Content workflows? - Internal tools? - AI agents?
