# FlowRunner > FlowRunner is a visual AI agent orchestration platform: workflows run fully autonomous, or pause to ask a human for judgment at designated decision points, via email, Slack, WhatsApp, or phone ("Agents That Ask"). AI agents are native, first-class nodes in a flow, not bolt-on integrations, and human-in-the-loop is a callable tool an agent invokes mid-execution, not a basic approval gate. Built by Midnight Coders, Inc. (DBA FlowRunner), Texas, USA. Key facts: BYOK (bring your own AI provider keys), native MCP server support, built-in compliance (audit trails, SLA tracking, RBAC, SSO) starting at the Professional tier, unlimited users and workflows on every tier, cloud-hosted and self-hosted deployment options. ## Product - [Homepage](https://flowrunner.ai/): product overview - [Pricing](https://flowrunner.ai/pricing): Growth ($45/mo), Professional ($299/mo), Business ($999/mo), custom Enterprise, free self-hosted Community Edition; $100 signup credit, no card required - [Integrations](https://flowrunner.ai/integrations): 900+ third-party service connectors AI agents call as actions or triggers - [Teams](https://flowrunner.ai/teams): the platform by team (Security & IT, Finance & Operations, RevOps, Support & CX, Data & Platform, Developers) ## Compare - [Compare FlowRunner to alternatives](https://flowrunner.ai/compare) - [FlowRunner vs Zapier](https://flowrunner.ai/compare/flowrunner-vs-zapier) - [FlowRunner vs n8n](https://flowrunner.ai/compare/flowrunner-vs-n8n) - [FlowRunner vs Make](https://flowrunner.ai/compare/flowrunner-vs-make) - [FlowRunner vs Power Automate](https://flowrunner.ai/compare/flowrunner-vs-power-automate) ## Concepts Canonical definitions of the FlowRunner vocabulary: - [Orchestration as a Service](https://flowrunner.ai/concepts/orchestration-as-a-service): a platform category that coordinates, governs, and supervises multi-agent environments while keeping humans in control of the decisions that require judgment - [Human-in-the-loop](https://flowrunner.ai/concepts/human-in-the-loop): an execution pattern where AI agents pause autonomously, assemble the relevant context and decision choices, route to a human via their preferred channel, and resume the moment the human responds - [Digital andon cord](https://flowrunner.ai/concepts/digital-andon-cord): AI that stops the line when it hits uncertainty, borrowed from the Toyota Production System pull cord - [Agent Factory](https://flowrunner.ai/concepts/agent-factory): FlowRunner's visual and conversational interface for assembling AI agents from connectors, MCP services, other agents, and existing flows, without writing code - [Agent Directory](https://flowrunner.ai/concepts/agent-directory): a curated library of pre-built, deployable AI agents authored by FlowRunner, partners, and the community - [Code of Conduct](https://flowrunner.ai/concepts/code-of-conduct): the platform-enforced governance layer that defines how AI agents communicate, negotiate conflicts, escalate to humans, and produce audit trails - [All concepts](https://flowrunner.ai/concepts): connectors, BYOK, automation exceptions, flow conversation, and related terms ## Workflows - [Workflow guides](https://flowrunner.ai/workflows): how-to guides for connecting specific services with AI agent orchestration ## Solutions - [Solutions](https://flowrunner.ai/solutions): use-case landing pages by business function ## Full index - [Complete page index](https://flowrunner.ai/llms-full.txt): every page on the site, with canonical concept definitions - [Machine-readable integration catalog](https://flowrunner.ai/integrations.json): every supported service with its trigger and action names, auth type, and verification date - [Sitemap](https://flowrunner.ai/sitemap-index.xml) - [Blog RSS feed](https://flowrunner.ai/rss.xml)
