Symao Systems
Hosting and access
Use an n8n environment you already operate, or create a Railway project your company owns. Symao gets the access needed to build and maintain supported workflows.
Two supported paths
We confirm the final hosting and access plan during onboarding.
This is the faster path when your team already owns and operates a suitable environment.
This is the simplest new-hosting path for most Automation Partner clients.
The customer owns the account and costs. Symao operates the supported runtime and workflows through named project access.
Railway setup
New Railway customers can start with Symao's optional referral link.
Start with Symao's Railway referral link if your company is new to Railway. Eligible new users may receive $20 in Railway credits. Eligibility and credits are controlled by Railway and can change.
Sign up with a company-controlled identity and create the workspace under your business. Avoid building the production environment under Symao's account.
Choose the appropriate Railway plan and add the payment method your company wants Railway to charge. Railway bills usage directly to you.
Create the project, then invite the Symao account provided during onboarding as an Editor. Editor access supports deployment and configuration without transferring billing ownership.
Symao deploys n8n, configures the database and persistent storage, adds the domain, verifies logs and backups, and records the operating details.
Do not email API keys or passwords. Once the runtime is ready, credentials are entered directly into n8n or shared through an approved password or secrets manager.
Costs
That keeps hosting usage visible and the account transferable.
$3,500/month
About $15 to $50/month
*This range is a planning estimate, not a quote or guarantee. Railway pricing, plan minimums, usage, referral eligibility, and credits can change. Review current Railway pricing before selecting a plan.
Credentials
We review what the workflow needs before asking for accounts or keys.
Document which system the workflow reads or changes and which permissions are actually required.
Prefer client-owned OAuth apps, service accounts, or API credentials with the smallest practical permission scope.
Enter credentials directly into n8n with Symao present, or use an approved client password manager or secrets manager.
Document the credential owner, purpose, scope, rotation path, and the workflows that use it without recording the secret value.
Common questions
We can confirm your path during onboarding.
No. Your company owns the workspace, billing, project, data, domain, and vendor relationship.
No. We can use an existing n8n environment when it has suitable storage, backups, logs, HTTPS, ownership, and access.
No. It is an optional link for new Railway customers. Railway determines eligibility and applies any credit.
Not by default. Direct client ownership creates less billing friction and makes the environment easier to transfer or manage later.
No. Do not place passwords, API keys, tokens, or private certificates in the intake form, email, chat, or screenshots.
You do not need to create a Railway account before the first call. We will confirm whether you need one.
