Question 1easy
How is 'code vs no-code' best understood?
Two opposing camps you must pick between permanentlyA spectrum (no-code → low-code → code) where you match the tier to the specific workflowA measure of developer skillThe same thing with different names
Question 2easy
What most distinguishes n8n (low-code) from Zapier/Make (no-code)?
n8n has no visual editorn8n is self-hostable with code nodes and real branching/loops — visual speed with more control and data on your own infraZapier can't connect to any appsn8n cannot call an LLM
Question 3medium
Which axes should drive the code-vs-no-code decision? (Select all that apply)
Complexity of the logicReliability needs and cost at scaleSecurity / data control and maintainabilityWhich tool the consultant personally prefers
Select all that apply.
Question 4medium
A simple flow processes sensitive, regulated data at high volume with strict reliability needs. Which tier fits despite its simplicity?
No-codeCodeIt must be no-code because it's simpleAny tier works
Question 5medium
What are the two equal-and-opposite failure modes in this decision?
Using an LLM vs. not using an LLMForcing code where no-code would've shipped fast and maintainably, and forcing no-code for genuinely complex/high-stakes/high-volume logicSelf-hosting vs. cloud onlyPython vs. JavaScript
Question 6medium
When does no-code per-task pricing become a strong reason to move to code?
At very low volumeAt high volume, where per-task fees explode and compute-per-task in code is cheaperNever — no-code is always cheaperOnly for image tasks
Question 7hard
What is the hybrid pattern that often wins?
Rebuilding everything in codeNo-code/low-code owns triggers, connectors, and orchestration; a small code service (called via webhook) owns the hard AI logicRunning two no-code tools in parallelFine-tuning a model to replace the workflow
Question 8hard
In the hybrid, which part typically belongs in the code service rather than the no-code tool?
The SaaS app connectorsThe complex AI logic needing RAG, tests, evals, and data controlThe visual triggerThe final CRM write
Question 9hard
Which are signals to migrate a flow from no-code toward code? (Select all that apply)
Prompt logic sprawling in untestable no-code text boxesPer-task bills climbing as volume growsReliability incidents you can't debug or add tests/retries forThe flow works fine but code feels 'more serious'
Select all that apply.
Question 10medium
A solo consultant automates invoice parsing for several clients, must keep client data off vendor clouds, ~200/day. Best tier?
No-code (Zapier)Low-code self-hosted (n8n)A 1M/day custom clusterFine-tuning
Question 11hard
A 1M/day content-moderation pipeline with strict latency and reliability SLAs should be built in:
No-code, for speed to shipCode — per-task no-code pricing and reliability guarantees rule out anything but a custom, tested, optimized systemA shared Zapier accountA group chat of agents
Question 12medium
What one-word design (a webhook + small code service alongside a no-code flow) often beats choosing a single tier?
Question 13hard
Complete the anti-pattern: '____-first thinking' means picking your favorite tool, then bending the problem to fit it.
