Monetization of n8n-Templates

Hey there,

I have built a way to monetize any n8n-workflow in an easy way by leveraging - x402 under the hood. So your workflow can be accessed by others Humans or Agents - only if they have paid. The payments can be either per call, per Timeframe, dependend on a subscription - or whatever you want you to charge. Is anyone interested in this?

Best regards, Jakob

If anyone wants to test how this works adding the gate to your workflow - just head over https://pay.gorilla.build/demonstrator (use AI) - it is just something like this - if you don't want to register - use [email protected] and gorilla! as Password. But please don't drain the wallet (just 4 Euro) - but please let anyone interested to test it have their chance.

Run AI Agent

I am happy to give anyone a demo - how this works. Just ping me.

If someone wants to test it - just register for free
as a Manager - create your N8N-Flow Product - right now we support the cloud product. At the end you get a fully configured n8n-Flow Template and a Button and Script generated - when put into a website will trigger the Payment-Flow - the Template looks like the one in the image - you can adjust the Agent-Workflow Placeholder to your needs. Would be happy for feedback.

- there might be hickups - it’s early.

If anyone wants to test it - you can register at the domain from the button - there will be some hickups and it is right now in alpha - so don’t expect your account be permanent - but it would help me a lot to get feedback. Feel free to register with Dummy-Values. We will publish the client repo that has all ready to allow your agent to purchase or create products soon. This is built from builders for builders - and ready for the agent economy as well as for humans. The whole payment process is fully non-custodial - we never hold any keys nor have access to your set up wallet - we are using privy for that. You can create your very own Monerium Account in the App that allows you to receive payments and pay just via SEPA Instant. Monerium is the first licensed e-money provider and a fantastic piece of Software - I can really recommend it. And the best they do not chare any fees at all. We won’t chare fees for transactions as well.

Check out our github-repo - you’ll find the first clients here - GitHub - gorillafund/valuya-guard - I am going to publish the npm-packages one-by-one - once I am confident they are stable

As soon as I tested everything - we support 95% of all web-architectures. I am happy for comments - ideas and suggestions. I will publish a video of the general flow - for humans and for agents soon.

We decided to not support .Net directly - because Microsoft stole too much time from me in the past - but we are open for community contributions.

And - please give GitHub - Agentokratia/guardian-wallet: The unified wallet for agentic commerce. Accept payments. Automate with AI. 15 guardrails. a star - they are building something pretty interesintg. Don’t know them - but like what they are doing - we added an adapter - so your agents can act securely.

Hey n8n builders

Over the last months, I’ve been thinking about something:

Many of you are building incredibly powerful workflows — AI agents, automations, integrations — but most workflows today are either:

  • given away for free
  • sold once as a template
  • or monetized indirectly via client work

What’s largely missing is a native way to monetize execution itself.


The Idea

We’re building Valuya Guard — a lightweight entitlement + payment layer that allows you to:

  • Gate workflow execution
  • Charge per usage or per plan
  • Issue time-bound access
  • Enforce API-based execution rights
  • Programmatically verify permissions before a workflow runs

In short:

Turn your workflow JSON into a monetizable product.


Distribution Included: Our Workflow Showroom

This is not just about infrastructure.

Every early workflow we onboard will be:

Published in our public Valuya Guard Showroom
→ giving you visibility
→ positioning you as a monetizable automation builder
→ showcasing your workflow as a product, not just a file

We want to highlight builders who are serious about turning workflows into revenue-generating assets.


API-First + Client Support

Valuya Guard is API-first and already ships with client implementations that can be called directly from n8n via HTTP nodes:

:backhand_index_pointing_right: valuya-guard/packages at master · gorillafund/valuya-guard · GitHub

You can integrate an entitlement check before execution and enforce controlled access.

Some workflows may require small structural tweaks to integrate cleanly — especially around execution triggers or access control — but that’s exactly what we’re here for.

We’ll work with you directly to make it production-ready.

You focus on building the workflow.
We handle the control + monetization layer.


Early Builder Access (First 20)

To shape this together with real builders, I’m offering:

Lifetime access (free) for the first 20 serious n8n builders who want to experiment with monetizing their workflows.

Not a trial.
Not a discount.
Actual early infrastructure partner access.

In return, we’re looking for:

  • Real-world use cases
  • Honest feedback
  • Builders willing to pioneer this category

Who this is for

  • AI workflow creators
  • Builders publishing reusable templates
  • Consultants who want enforceable licenses
  • Anyone exploring workflow-as-a-product

If this resonates, reply here or DM me.
Happy to jump on a quick call and explore concrete monetization models.

Excited to see n8n builders turning workflows into real products :rocket:

We will publish a video of the integration process in the coming days - so that you directly know how this will work.

We successfully translated the application for chinese, indian and persian users - every n8n flow published via Valuya Guard will be available in our showroom.
