Questions

What's the difference between Stormi and n8n?

Can I self-host Stormi?

No. Stormi runs bots on its own server so they keep working when your phone is off. Bots connect to tools through MCP, an open standard, so any public remote MCP server works as a plugin.

Is Stormi free?

Stormi is free to download. Bots start on Stormi's model account; connect your own OpenRouter account in Settings to pay model providers directly and see what each bot uses.
