How are Orbitype workflows different from Zapier or n8n?

Zapier and n8n are integration layers — they move data between tools but do not own it. Orbitype workflows run directly against your central Postgres database. Every trigger reads live data. Every output writes back. This means your workflows are not just automations — they are part of your data architecture. AI agents can query workflow state, trigger sequences based on real conditions and act on outputs immediately without any additional integration.

What can I trigger a workflow on?

Any database event — INSERT, UPDATE or DELETE on any table. Scheduled cron jobs. Incoming webhooks. AI agent outputs. Manual triggers from the UI or API. Because your entire GTM stack lives in one database, any change anywhere can kick off a workflow. A new lead, a score update, a reply, a deal stage change, a content publish — all of these can be workflow triggers with zero additional configuration.

Do I need to be a developer to build workflows in Orbitype?

No. Orbitype workflows are visual node graphs. You connect steps, configure inputs and outputs, and write simple JavaScript only when you need custom logic. Most GTM workflows — enrichment, scoring, sequencing, CRM updates, notifications — can be built without writing a single line of code. If you can build in Zapier, you can build in Orbitype. With ten times the power and none of the per-task cost.

How do workflows and AI agents work together in Orbitype?

Workflows handle deterministic logic — if this, then that, always the same way. AI agents handle non-deterministic tasks — research, writing, scoring, deciding. In Orbitype, workflows can call AI agents as steps, and AI agents can trigger workflows as actions. Both read from and write to the same central database. The result is a revenue engine where rule-based automation and autonomous AI work together seamlessly, with no data silos between them.

Orbitype workflows are server-function graphs that run your revenue engine. Build deterministic automations in JavaScript — no black boxes, no vendor lock-in, no per-task pricing that scales against you. Trigger workflows on database events, schedules, webhooks or AI agent outputs. Every step reads from and writes to your central database, so your entire GTM stack stays in sync automatically.
