Identify the offering, deployment location and workflow-execution plan before treating a pricing or hosting statement as applicable.

Boundary

No Kingy deployment, execution-meter or upgrade test; license and AI Agent documentation gaps remain explicit.

Approved source-bound claims

pricing

n8n distinguishes hosted Cloud plans, self-hosted paid plans and Community Edition; deployment location and included controls depend on the selected offering.

Scope: n8n product packaging · Evidence: n8n-pricing

limits

n8n says paid usage is based on complete workflow executions rather than charging separately for each workflow step. This does not infer plan allowance, third-party API cost or license interpretation.

Scope: n8n pricing metric; plan allowances still apply · Evidence: n8n-pricing

geography

n8n states its hosted Cloud service is located in the EU, while self-hosted deployments run wherever the customer deploys them. AI Agent and Sustainable Use License boundaries remain explicit evidence gaps.

Scope: n8n Cloud versus self-hosted deployment · Evidence: n8n-pricing

Evidence gaps

  • Two already-bound n8n documentation URLs returned fetch errors during this single pass; license and AI Agent details remain explicit gaps.
  • No Kingy deployment, execution-meter or upgrade test.

Score definitions and rubric

These are launch-record readiness heuristics, not product ratings.

Launch readiness

How complete and reviewable the launch record is, not the quality of the product.

Inputs and weights: Launch date 15%; qualifying source 10%; what launched 10%; demo 15%; category 10%; audience 10%; editorial assessment 10%; traction evidence 10%; creator or audience fit 10%.

Evidence inputs: Reviewed launch metadata, public source links, demo links, taxonomy, audience, editorial notes, and recorded traction signals.

Demo evidence

Whether the record contains useful, reviewable demonstration evidence; it is not a rating of product output quality.

Inputs and weights: Working demo URL 45%; video walkthrough 25%; clear description of what launched 10%; audience 10%; editorial assessment 10%.

Evidence inputs: Demo and video URLs plus the reviewed launch description, audience, and editorial notes.

Creator-story fit

Whether a launch has enough demonstrable evidence and audience relevance for a useful creator story; it does not predict views or guarantee coverage.

Inputs and weights: Demo evidence 25%; visual creator category 15%; audience 15%; editorial assessment 15%; traction evidence 10%; pricing clarity 10%; API or open-weight evidence 10%.

Evidence inputs: Reviewed demo, category, audience, editorial, traction, pricing, API, and open-weight fields.

Scale
0.0–10.0. A present qualifying input receives its published weight; a missing input receives zero. Scores are rounded to one decimal.
Assigned by
Suggested by the deterministic field-completeness helper and assigned or approved by a Kingy editorial reviewer.
Rubric and check date
Rubric version P0-2026-08-10. The record’s “Last verified” date is the score check date. Checked: 2026-06-24.
Confidence and missing data
Confidence depends on source completeness. “Not scored yet” means no reviewed value; “Needs review” means the value or score set failed validation.
Freshness
Recalculate after a material launch, source, demo, pricing, audience, or traction change and during the record freshness review.
Disputes
Use “Suggest a correction” on the record and cite the relevant evidence. Commercial relationships cannot buy or alter a score.
