Introducing Flowise to the Local AI Starter Kit – it pairs SUPER well with n8n and in this video I show you exactly how to make the magic happen.
n8n is my favorite no/low code AI automation platform – it’s open source, you can host it yourself, it integrates with literally hundreds of applications, and I feel like I can build anything with it.
One thing I will say though is setting up complex AI agent workflows has a bit of a learning curve… if only there was another platform that made it easier to build these agents while still being able to leverage n8n for your agents to interacts with all your favorite services like Slack and Google Drive…
Well, that’s exactly why I’m excited to show you Flowise AND add it to the local AI starter kit I’ve been building up on my channel. When you combine Flowise’s AI-focused workflow builder with n8n’s powerful automation capabilities, you can build INCREDIBLY powerful AI agents in the blink of an eye.
In this video I show you how to exactly that – we’ll prototype an AI agent built with Flowise that uses n8n to give the Flowise agent tools to interact with Slack and Google Drive. And the best part is this will all be within the local AI starter kit packaged up with Docker because Flowise is the latest addition after Open WebUI!

Join me as I push the limits of what is possible with AI. I’ll be uploading videos at least two times a week – Sundays and Wednesdays at 7:00 PM CDT! Sundays and Wednesdays are for everything AI, focusing on providing insane and practical educational value. I will also post sometimes on Fridays at 7:00 PM CDT – specifically for platform showcases – sometimes sponsored, always creative in approach!
