In short

RootBrief is an AI automation monitoring tool that watches n8n, Zapier, Make, and AI agent workflows for silent failures and runaway costs.

What is RootBrief?

RootBrief is an AI automation monitoring tool that watches n8n, Zapier, Make, and AI agent workflows in production to catch silent failures, runaway costs, and missed runs from one dashboard. Rather than discovering that an automation broke only when a client complains, RootBrief detects workflow failures and silent workflows (runs that never fired within the expected window), tracks API-usage spikes and budget overruns, and provides plain-English root-cause analysis of what broke. It monitors n8n, Zapier, Make, and AI agent frameworks such as LangChain, CrewAI, and OpenAI, plus OpenClaw, and routes alerts to Email, Slack, Discord, Teams, PagerDuty, or custom webhooks. Audit logs and trace retention support incident investigation, and security signals flag unusual access or secret exposure. It fits solo builders, agencies managing many client automations, and teams running critical workflows at scale. RootBrief offers a free tier (2 workflows, 1-day retention) with paid plans starting at Pro $19/mo (20 workflows, 14-day retention) up to Pro Max $100/mo (200 workflows) and a custom Business plan; founding members who sign up before June 30, 2026 lock in their rate for life.
