Is my n8n workflow compatible? Is this legal?
Yes to both. Your workflow imports directly, and we're fully legally independent.

Compatibility
Your n8n workflow JSON uploads without conversion. Core logic nodes work perfectly — things like If, Switch, Set, Code, Merge, Filter, and Sort.
The moment you upload your n8n JSON, we convert it to our own internal format and run compatibility verification — you'll immediately see which nodes are supported and which aren't.
Check our change log and roadmap, we plan to support all nodes.
Legality
We operate as a Clean-Room Implementation. Our execution engine is written from scratch on a high performance secure sandbox— no n8n code involved. We simply accept the same JSON format, which is just data structure compatibility, not code copying. This is like building a music player that reads MP3 files — interoperability is fair use. And n8n's own fair-code license permits commercial use anyway.
We're a marketplace, not a competing hosting service. Builders created their workflow logic — we just provide a place to sell it. We always clarify: "indie.money is an independent marketplace, not affiliated with n8n GmbH."
Bottom line
Your workflows are yours. They import cleanly. And there's nothing legally ambiguous about a marketplace for automation logic.
