n8n automation builds, checked before listing

Automation builds, checked before they are listed.

Fractional HQ is opening a hub for n8n automation builds. Listings are not open yet. Every build will be read before it is listed, and each listing will say how it was checked and who built it. The workflow checker, the library of n8n fixes and the agent connection are open today and free.

Join the list and we will email you when listings open.

Findings from the n8n workflow checker on its example workflow. The first is a webhook without authentication on the node New Order Webhook. The second is Retry On Fail on Send The Reminder, a node that sends.
The free n8n workflow checker’s real output on its own example, with some of its six findings shown. The checker is open today, and it is a separate tool from the check a listing gets. Open the n8n workflow checker

The two levels of a check

A build that fails the check stays off the site.

  1. In use when listings open

    File and guide read

    The file and its guide are opened and read, without running the build.

  2. On a builder's request

    Run on sample data: FHQ Tested

    When its builder asks for a run, the build can be run on Fractional HQ's test accounts with sample data, and its listing then carries the mark.

What you can use today

Listings come later. The library, the workflow checker and the agent connection are open today and free.

Free n8n workflow checker

Paste an n8n workflow and it lists faults that are easy to miss, such as a secret left in a node or a retry that can send twice. It runs in your browser and uploads nothing.

It reads the file for seven faults, including these four.

  • A webhook without authentication
  • Retry On Fail on a node that writes or sends
  • Google Sheets append where two runs can overlap
  • No error branch and no error workflow

Three ways to take part

  1. Ask

    If you want an answer

    Ask about a job you are tired of doing by hand and get an answer.

  2. Build and list

    If you build automations

    List what you have built, for any tool. Listing is free, and every build is checked before it is shown.

    The problem we are working on is visibility.

    0 views
    On n8n's public library, paid templates created in the last 90 days have a median of 0 views (read by Fractional HQ, 10 Nov 2026).
    292 of 3,113 creators sell
    n8n lists 3,113 template creators and 292 of them sell (read by Fractional HQ, 11 Nov 2026).
  3. Connect an agent

    If you connect an agent

    Your agent can search the library and ask questions through a connection we run.

Questions about hiring us

What does it cost?

It depends on the job, so there is no price table. Send a brief and we reply in writing with a price.

What if it breaks after you leave?

Everything is handed over with the access and a walkthrough, so the work runs in your accounts. Fixed-price jobs include at least 14 days of in-scope fixes.

Who does the work?

Fractional HQ is a small UK company. The person who scopes your job is the person who builds it, and you deal with them directly in writing. Much of our own operation runs on the same automation we build for clients.

Scraping, automation or design?

We cover all three. Data collection, the workflows that act on it and the pages people judge you on are often bought from three suppliers. With us, one brief and one handover cover the whole job.
