# Deploy as an OEM integration

{% hint style="info" %}
**OEM agreement required**

OEM deployment of n8n requires a separate commercial agreement with n8n. [Contact n8n](mailto:license@n8n.io) for more information.
{% endhint %}

n8n's OEM deployment option lets you embed and surface n8n's interface inside your own product's UI. This allows your users to build workflows, configure connections, and run workflow automation without leaving your product. n8n branding is required as part of an OEM integration.

This is distinct from [using n8n as a backend](/deploy/host-n8n.md), where workflows execute behind the scenes and end users never see n8n. In that model, your product calls n8n using a webhook or the [API](/connect/n8n-api.md) to trigger workflows, and n8n behaves like any other self-hosted service in your infrastructure - your users never see any n8n UI. This is available on all paid plans under the standard license, with no separate agreement needed. OEM deployment is only necessary when you want your users to interact with the n8n editor directly.

# Agent Instructions
This documentation is published with GitBook. GitBook is the documentation platform designed so that both humans and AI agents can read, navigate, and reason over technical content effectively. Learn more at gitbook.com.

## Querying This Documentation
If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation dynamically by asking a question.

Perform an HTTP GET request on the current page URL with the `ask` query parameter, and the optional `goal` query parameter:

```
GET https://docs.n8n.io/deploy/host-n8n/deploy-as-an-oem-integration.md?ask=<question>&goal=<endgoal>
```

`ask` is the immediate question: it should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language.
`goal` is optional and describes the broader end goal you are ultimately trying to accomplish on behalf of the user. GitBook uses it to tailor the answer towards what is most useful for that goal.

The response will contain a direct answer to the question and relevant excerpts and sources from the documentation.

Use this mechanism when the answer is not explicitly present in the current page, you need clarification or additional context, or you want to retrieve related documentation sections.
