The use case: how Unbabel deploys n8n
Unbabel built a peak management system with n8n that checks the translation backlog every hour. When a language pair has excess workload, it sends a Slack notification to Community Managers and an email to editors saying work is available.

In the customer’s words
This wouldn’t have happened without n8n, especially in the timeframe we were able to achieve it. We were developing a portal and internal apps at the same time, so getting engineering capacity would have been impossible.n8n users in Artificial Intelligence
