About ToolPilot

About ToolPilot

ToolPilot is an independent tutorial site focused on AI automation tools: n8n, Make, Zapier, MCP (Model Context Protocol) servers, and AI agents.

How we work

Every tutorial on this site follows one rule: we do it before we write it.

  • We install the software on real machines (usually an Ubuntu VPS, just like yours).
  • We click through every step, copy real commands, and keep the real output — including the errors.
  • We re-test popular guides when tools release major updates, and we mark the tested version at the top of each article.

We don’t rewrite documentation and call it a tutorial. If a step can fail, we show you what the failure looks like and how to fix it.

Editorial policy

  • Tutorials are written for practitioners: developers, operators, and small-business owners automating real work.
  • We don’t publish “what is X” filler. Every article must teach you to do something.
  • When we compare tools, we disclose our testing method and update pricing data at least once a year.
  • Some outbound links may be affiliate links. They never affect our conclusions, and we’ll always tell you when a free or self-hosted alternative exists.

We install, break, and fix automation tools so you don't have to. Every tutorial on ToolPilot is tested hands-on before publishing.
