N8n Valuation Doubles to $5.2bn as SAP Makes Strategic Investment and Plans to Embed the AI Platform Into Joule Studio
SAP made n8n native in Joule Studio as the workflow layer for AI agents, and the startup now serves 300,000 enterprise customers.
SAP embedded Berlin-based n8n inside Joule Studio as the orchestration layer for its Autonomous Enterprise platform, doubling n8n's valuation to $5.2 billion and making the startup Germany's most valuable AI company.
SAP's AI agents lacked native capability to interact with the thousands of systems large companies operate alongside their core ERP software. The average enterprise runs between 200 and 400 applications.
Running on SAP's Business Technology Platform, n8n supports more than 1,000 integrations and allows developers to wire workflows between systems without writing custom integration code. Data remains inside the customer's SAP environment.
Boasting 183,000 GitHub stars and more than 230,000 active users, n8n competes with cloud-only platforms Zapier and Make by offering a fair-code, self-hostable model that provides structural advantages in enterprise markets.
General availability is planned for Q3 2026, positioning n8n as the orchestration layer for 300,000 SAP customers. The deal represents a 'European answer' to enterprise software needs.
