Modern tech stacks NEED to be more ... modern

Modern tech stacks are essential for operations but often come with significant challenges. Enterprises depend on an array of platforms tailored to specific departments, yet these tools frequently operate in silos.

This fragmentation leads to inefficiencies, complicating workflows and limiting collaboration. Bridging these gaps is not just a technical challenge — it’s a necessity for unlocking productivity and streamlining operations across the business. To sum it up, here are some of the issues with tech stacks that aren't connected: 

• Data Silos: Different platforms house valuable information, but lack of integration makes it challenging to access or leverage effectively.
• Workflow Gaps: Teams often navigate between disconnected systems, leading to redundant tasks, slower processes, and higher error rates.
• Redundancies in Tools: Overlapping functionalities across tools lead to unnecessary costs and confusion about which platform to use.
• Scalability Issues: Expanding enterprises face difficulty aligning new tools with existing systems, making streamlined growth a challenge.

Simplifying a tech stack requires more than integration — it involves creating synergy between tools, aligning them with organizational goals, and ensuring seamless interaction for end-users. 

Here's how simple it can be to have these systems work together: 

Optimizing your tech stack (with the help of AI) allows teams to focus on strategic goals, collaboration, and execution rather than battling fragmented systems. By addressing these challenges, businesses can unlock the full potential of their tech stack, and, more importantly, empower their people.

We hope that companies with well-organized Cassidy Knowledge Bases will not only drive greater value for the organization but also enables individuals to focus on meaningful, productive work that benefits both the business and their own professional growth.

AI Automation vs. Enterprise Search

Cassidy and Glean serve different purposes in the enterprise AI space. Cassidy is an AI automation platform that executes multi-step workflows, while Glean is primarily an enterprise search tool designed to help teams find and retrieve information.

The biggest difference? Cassidy doesn’t just find information—it takes action. Whether automating RFP responses, triaging support tickets, or generating approvals, Cassidy applies AI to automate real work, while Glean focuses on retrieving knowledge across enterprise systems.

Here’s a quick feature comparison:

‍

‍

Cassidy: AI That Works For You

Cassidy isn’t just about surfacing information—it’s about automating work. It can:

• Draft & process RFPs in seconds, pulling from company knowledge.
• Triage and route support tickets automatically, reducing workload.
• Enrich and update CRM records, helping sales teams move faster.
• Generate personalized emails, reports, and summaries with real business context.

With no-code workflow automation, teams can deploy Cassidy quickly for immediate value—no IT-heavy setup required.

Glean: Search, Not Automation

Glean specializes in enterprise knowledge retrieval, making it easy for employees to find information across wikis, emails, and files. It’s designed to:

• Reduce internal support tickets by giving employees self-service answers.
• Help new hires get up to speed by centralizing company knowledge.
• Improve decision-making by surfacing relevant reports and past work.

Glean’s AI-powered search is fast and accurate, but it doesn’t automate tasks or workflows—users still have to take action manually.

Speed of Deployment: Quick Wins vs. Heavy Rollout

• Cassidy: Deploy in days, not weeks, by targeting a single high-impact use case (e.g., automating customer support responses or drafting proposals). AI assistants and workflows can be embedded directly into Slack, Teams, and email without deep integrations.
• Glean: Requires indexing the entire organization’s data before it’s useful. Companies must integrate Glean with all tools and set up permissions before employees can start using it.

Cassidy delivers value immediately, while Glean is a long-term IT investment.

Automation Workflows vs. AI Agents

• Cassidy: Users build clear, step-by-step workflows—for example, analyzing an incoming request, updating a system, and drafting a response—all automatically. It’s predictable, structured automation that businesses can rely on.
• Glean: Introduces AI “Agents”, which attempt to dynamically generate workflows on the fly based on broad user goals. While promising, this approach lacks fine control and predictability, making it less suited for critical business processes.

Enterprise Readiness & Security

Both platforms meet enterprise security standards, including SOC 2 compliance and strong access controls.

• Cassidy provides role-based access and data privacy controls, ensuring AI assistants only access relevant information.
• Glean enforces strict user permissions, making sure employees only see data they are authorized to access.

While both platforms prioritize security, Cassidy is faster to implement without requiring full company-wide data integration.

Who Should Use Cassidy vs. Glean?

Use Cassidy if you need:

✔️ AI-powered workflow automation that acts, not just retrieves data
✔️ Fast, no-code deployment for targeted automation use cases
✔️ Real-time AI Assistants in Slack, Teams, and Chrome
✔️ Automations that replace manual tasks like RFPs, support triaging, and CRM updates

Use Glean if you need:

✔️ Enterprise-wide search to help employees find existing knowledge
✔️ A centralized knowledge hub that connects to all your company’s data sources
✔️ AI that retrieves information but doesn’t take action

Final Thoughts: Why Cassidy Wins

Glean is a powerful knowledge retrieval tool, but Cassidy goes further—using AI to actually get work done. If your goal is to automate business processes, reduce manual effort, and deploy AI-powered workflows quickly, Cassidy is the clear choice.

AI Automation Platform Comparison

Today, stitching together integrations isn’t enough. Teams need automation that actually have human-level judgement: saving time, reducing complexity, and boosting productivity through AI. Two platforms often mentioned in this space are cassidyai.com and n8n.io. While both can help automate workflows, there’s a lot that is not possible with any other tool than Cassidy.

Check out the table below for a quick comparison, then read on to learn why Cassidy stands out for true AI-powered automation.

‍

‍

AI-Driven vs. General Automation

The biggest difference? Cassidy is built for AI-first automation, while n8n.io simply adds AI as an option.

n8n.io is a general workflow tool—it moves data, triggers tasks, and connects apps. AI isn’t embedded; it’s something you manually add by configuring external APIs like OpenAI, setting up prompts, and managing responses. It’s flexible, but requires technical work to make AI useful.

Cassidy, by contrast, has AI built into every workflow. Its Knowledge Base gives AI instant access to your company’s data, so automations don’t just run—they understand, generate content, and improve over time. AI in Cassidy isn’t an add-on; it’s the foundation of how the platform works.

If you need AI-powered automation that works immediately—without complex setup—Cassidy is the clear choice.

Cassidy is Built for Non-Technical Users—n8n.io is Not

Unlike n8n.io, which requires technical setup, Cassidy is built for anyone to create AI-powered workflows—no coding, no APIs, no complexity.

With Cassidy, non-technical teams can build their own AI-driven tools, whether it’s:
✅ Submitting an RFP and having Cassidy generate responses automatically
✅ Creating AI-driven sales outreach with contextual lead insights
✅ Automating customer support with AI that understands and responds

These workflows aren’t even possible in n8n.io without heavy technical work. n8n.io is a developer tool, requiring manual setup and API connections, while Cassidy lets anyone build intelligent automations in minutes.

Knowledge Base as the AI Foundation

Cassidy’s Knowledge Base isn’t just a document store—it’s what makes its AI powerful. Every workflow and AI Assistant learns from and contributes to your business data, meaning automations get smarter over time.

In contrast, n8n.io doesn’t have a knowledge base. You can connect it to data sources, but each workflow step has to manually fetch and process information—nothing is remembered or optimized automatically. This means AI in n8n lacks context and must be reconfigured whenever you want it to "know" something new.

With Cassidy, AI instantly understands your business and improves with every interaction.

Workflows: Embedded AI vs. AI as an Add-On

The way Cassidy and n8n handle workflows isn’t just different—it completely changes what’s possible with automation.

With Cassidy, AI isn’t just a step in the workflow—it’s embedded into every part of it. Each workflow can access and contribute to the Knowledge Base, meaning automations don’t just execute tasks, they learn and improve over time. For example, if Cassidy automates a customer support response, it doesn’t just pull data—it updates the Knowledge Base with new insights so that future responses are even more accurate.

In n8n.io, AI is always external. Every step that needs intelligence must call an outside AI model, wait for a response, and store data separately. This slows down workflows and requires manual upkeep.

With Cassidy, workflows become smarter with time—n8n workflows stay static. If you want true AI-powered automation, Cassidy delivers intelligence at every step.

AI Assistants: More Than Just Workflows

Not every task needs a workflow. Sometimes, a real-time AI assistant is better—and Cassidy is the only platform that offers both.

Cassidy’s AI Assistants can be deployed in Slack, Teams, Chrome, embedded in apps, or accessed via API. These assistants help teams instantly—answering questions, generating responses, and pulling data from your Knowledge Base in real time.

Examples:

• Slack and Teams Assistant: Instantly answers sales, support, or HR questions using company knowledge.
• Chrome AI Assistant: Reads webpages, drafts emails, and summarizes content while you work.

n8n.io doesn’t offer assistants at all. If you wanted something similar, you’d need to manually build a chatbot, integrate AI, and set up custom API calls—a major technical lift.

With Cassidy, you get workflows + real-time assistants, so you can choose the best tool for the job.

Critical user-level permissions for Enterprises

When enterprise leaders consider automation tools, security and granular permissioning often top the list of requirements. Cassidy places heavy emphasis on this, offering advanced user-level permissions, plus the concept of “Collections” in its knowledge base. Collections let you compartmentalize data so that certain teams only have access to the relevant documentation. Even Cassidy’s AI assistants can be restricted to certain Collections, preventing them from ever pulling data they’re not authorized to see.

n8n.io, in contrast, has limited built-in security. While self-hosting is an option, managing user access, permissions, and data controls is left to the business—requiring extra setup and maintenance.

For companies that need tight security and AI-driven automation, Cassidy is the enterprise-ready solution.

Replacing vs. Connecting Tools

With Cassidy, teams often find themselves replacing or consolidating software solutions. Because the platform can draft proposals, reply to support tickets, and even manage entire AI-driven processes, it reduces the need for multiple point solutions. For example, a Cassidy workflow might handle an RFP from end to end: extracting questions from a spreadsheet, generating responses based on past proposals, and compiling everything into a final document for review. The same platform can then integrate with your CRM to enrich new leads, or automate sentiment-based ticket triaging for your support team.

N8n, while powerful at linking different apps into multi-step workflows, doesn’t intrinsically generate content or function as a knowledge repository. Instead, it’s best at connecting tools you already use—perhaps orchestrating that data across Slack, CRMs, or email. If your primary goal is to unify third-party services in custom sequences, n8n is a viable option. But if you’re looking to outsource entire tasks to AI—like drafting detailed documents or summing up complex data sets—Cassidy offers a more direct path.

Why Cassidy for AI Automation?

Enterprises need more than just triggers and actions; they need intelligent processes that tap into business knowledge, interpret context, and communicate seamlessly across departments. Cassidy is designed for exactly that. Its user-friendly, no-code environment ensures that even non-technical teams can harness AI power, backed by secure, granular permissioning to protect sensitive information. Most importantly, Cassidy doesn’t just handle tasks—it excels at producing context-driven content and responses, often replacing entire tools your team currently relies on.

For businesses that primarily need custom data pipelines or already have a robust AI strategy in place, n8n.io is a capable workflow builder. However, if your organization wants to run full-fledged AI automations—and do so quickly, without the hassle of stitching together multiple AI services—Cassidy is the stronger, more future-proof choice.
