We use the right tool for every job
n8n Automation, AI Agents, Lead Generation and Managed n8n Hosting
If your team is pulling reports on Friday afternoons, re-keying orders between systems or chasing leads by hand, one of the five services below replaces that job with a system that runs on its own. Every build is custom to your stack and your data, not a template.
AI Agents & Workflow Automation
Your inbound messages shouldn't require a human to triage. We build AI agents that live in WhatsApp, Telegram, and Slack — handling customer queries, routing data, booking appointments, and executing cross-platform tasks without anyone touching a keyboard. Think of it as a 24/7 team member who never sleeps and never makes typos.
Web Scraping & Lead Generation
Your sales pipeline shouldn't depend on manual prospecting. We build scraping systems that continuously extract, validate, and enrich B2B leads from every source that matters — Google Maps, LinkedIn, competitor sites, real estate listings. You wake up to a clean list of prospects who match your exact ICP, already validated.
Marketing & Ads Automation
Your reporting should take 30 seconds, not 3 hours. We connect your Google Ads, Meta Ads, and every other channel into a single live dashboard that updates itself — flagging wasted spend before it becomes a problem, surfacing your best-performing campaigns automatically, and generating the reports your clients expect every Monday morning.
Google Workspace Operations
Your whole business runs on Google — but right now it's powered by humans doing things Google could be doing automatically. We automate Gmail routing, Google Sheets reporting, Drive organization, and Calendar scheduling end to end. Your inbox categorizes itself. Your reports update themselves. Your files land where they belong.
Managed n8n Hosting — We Run It, You Own It
A dedicated n8n instance, set up, secured, updated, backed up and monitored by us. All the economics of self-hosting (no per-execution fees) without touching a server, and you keep ownership of the instance and the data.
- ✓Your own dedicated n8n instance
- ✓Full setup, SSL & security hardening
- ✓We apply updates and fix bugs
- ✓Workflow build support included

From Bottleneck to Automated
in 1–3 Weeks

Free Automation Audit
In 15 minutes, we map every process in your business that a machine should be doing instead of a human. You leave with a clear picture of your biggest time leaks — and a concrete plan to fix the most impactful one first. No fluff, no pitch deck, just clarity.
We Build It
We scope and build your custom automation system — n8n, Python, AppScript, or whatever combination of tools is right for your specific workflow. Most projects are delivered in 1–3 weeks. You review and test before we hand over anything. Full documentation included.
Your Team Stops Doing Manual Work
The system goes live, runs 24/7, and your team immediately reclaims the hours they were spending on tasks that are now automated. We stay available for questions, updates, and maintenance — you didn't just buy a build, you got a long-term partner.

We use whatever tool is actually best — not just the one we know
n8n when workflows need to be visual and maintainable. Python when you need raw power and custom logic. AppScript when everything lives in Google. We're tool-agnostic because we care about what works for your specific situation — not what's easiest for us to build. You get the right solution, not the convenient one.
Senior automation engineering at founder-led prices
Two-plus years delivering 3–7 projects a month for clients in the US, UK, Europe and Australia. You work directly with the engineer who builds your system, and you pay a founder-led price rather than an agency's overhead.
Most automations are live in 1–3 weeks — not months
Enterprise automation consultancies bill discovery for 6 weeks before writing a line of code. We audit in 15 minutes, scope in 24 hours, and build in days. We've delivered over 20 production systems, which means we've already solved most of the hard problems you're going to hit. Fast isn't reckless — it's experience.
We don't disappear after delivery
Most automation freelancers build and ghost. When something breaks 3 months later — and something always eventually does — you're on your own. Every OpsThrive client gets ongoing support and maintenance options. We're invested in keeping your systems running because our reputation depends on it. You're not buying code, you're buying a working system.

What does an AI automation agency actually do?
OpsThrive builds the systems that do repetitive back-office and marketing work for you: n8n workflows, AI agents that answer and route messages, web-scraping and lead pipelines, ad-reporting dashboards and Google Workspace automations. You describe the process; we build it, test it, document it and keep it running.
How much does business automation cost?
A single-workflow Starter project is $500 to $1,500 and ships in about a week. A Growth system, a multi-step automation or an AI agent, is $2,000 to $5,000 and takes 2 to 3 weeks. Agencies that want ongoing build capacity pay a monthly retainer of about $1,000 to $3,500. Managed n8n hosting is $20 to $50 per month. Projects never require a retainer.
Which tools do you build with: n8n, Make, Zapier or GoHighLevel?
n8n first, plus Make, Zapier, GoHighLevel, Python, Playwright and Google Apps Script. We choose by cost and fit for your volume rather than by habit. Our pricing comparison explains the difference: n8n charges per workflow run, Make per credit and Zapier per task, which is why the same workflow can cost ten times more on one of them. Read the n8n vs Make vs Zapier pricing guide →
Do you work with GoHighLevel?
Yes. We build GoHighLevel workflows, SMS and email automations and conversation AI, and we connect GoHighLevel to n8n for the logic it cannot do natively, such as multi-step lead enrichment, AI qualification and syncing data across other platforms.
Where is OpsThrive based and who do you work with?
OpsThrive is founder-led and based in Islamabad, Pakistan. Most clients are marketing agencies and e-commerce brands in the United States and the United Kingdom, with others in Europe, Canada and Australia. Calls and handovers are scheduled in your time zone.
How fast is delivery, and what happens after launch?
Most automations go live in 1 to 3 weeks. Every project includes documentation and a handover session. Starter projects include 2 weeks of post-delivery support and Growth systems 30 days, with maintenance and managed-hosting options after that.
Can you fix something that is already broken?
Yes. n8n workflows and webhooks, Zapier or Make setups you want to move to n8n, GoHighLevel integrations, broken or slow websites, Apps Script and Python scrapers. You hear back the same business day, the diagnosis call is free, and work starts as soon as you share access. See the problems we fix →
Should I self-host n8n or pay for n8n Cloud?
Under a few thousand workflow runs a month with nobody technical in-house, n8n Cloud is the simplest choice. Past 10,000 runs, or if client data must stay on servers you control, self-hosting costs less every month. If you do not want to run a server, our managed hosting gives you a dedicated instance for $20 to $50 per month and you keep ownership of it. See the self-hosted n8n cost breakdown →
