See Legacy AWS Free Tier for more details.
You pay by the hour for a managed n8n workflow automation instance, billed through the Amazon EC2 instance type you select. Each dimension maps to a specific EC2 instance size, so your hourly rate scales with the compute, memory, storage, or accelerator profile of that instance. General-purpose (m, t), compute-optimized (c), memory-optimized (r, x, z, u), storage-optimized (d, i, h), and accelerated (g, p, inf, trn, vt, f) families are all represented. Larger instances within a family cost more per hour. You choose the instance that fits your workload and run it as long as needed.
Top-of-mind questions for buyers
What does one hourly unit cover — the n8n software, the server, or both?
Each hourly rate covers one dedicated managed n8n instance running on the Amazon EC2 instance type you pick. The vendor handles provisioning, SSL, daily backups, monitoring, upgrades, and security patching. You run the software on your own cloud account, with full admin access and no shared tenancy.
Am I charged when the n8n instance is stopped or paused?
The hourly software rate meters running time only. A fully stopped instance stops accruing the hourly charge. Underlying AWS resources, such as attached storage, may still bill separately even while the instance is off. You pay the hourly rate for as long as the instance runs.
How do I pick which instance type to pay for, and can I change later?
You choose the EC2 instance that matches your workload's compute, memory, storage, or accelerator needs. General-purpose and compute-optimized families suit most workflow automation. Larger instances within a family cost more per hour. Pricing is pay-as-you-go with no upfront commitment, so you run only what you need.

An AMI is a virtual image that provides the information required to launch an instance. Amazon EC2 (Elastic Compute Cloud) instances are virtual servers on which you can run your applications and workloads, offering varying combinations of CPU, memory, storage, and networking resources. You can launch as many instances from as many different AMIs as you need.
