If you're looking to streamline your processes, increase efficiency, and build smart workflows, n8n is a powerful open-source tool that connects apps and automates tasks. Pair it with Typhoon LLM, a cutting-edge multilingual language model, and you've got an intelligent, cost-effective automation powerhouse.

This tutorial walks you through how to integrate Typhoon LLM into your n8n workflows using OpenRouter or the OpenAI-compatible API.

Prerequisites

Before diving in, make sure you're familiar with basic concepts in n8n—like nodes and workflows. If you're new to it, start with their official documentation.

Integration Overview

n8n supports various LLM providers under the AI > Other AI Nodes > Language Models section. While you won't see “Typhoon” listed explicitly, don't worry—there are two simple ways to use Typhoon with n8n:

1. Via OpenRouter Node

2. Via OpenAI Chat Model Node (with Typhoon API compatibility)

Option 1: OpenRouter

OpenRouter aggregates LLMs from multiple providers into a single API, including Typhoon models. Currently available Typhoon models include:

• typhoon-2-70b-instruct

• typhoon-2-8b-instruct

These models are available via Typhoon API Pro, powered by TogetherAI.

Option 2: OpenAI Chat Model (with Typhoon API)

n8n's OpenAI Chat Model node isn't limited to OpenAI. It works with any API compatible with OpenAI's format—including Typhoon API and Typhoon API Pro.

Typhoon API: Free and includes the latest models (e.g., typhoon-2.1-gemma-12b).

Typhoon API Pro: Hosted by TogetherAI for production-grade stability and performance.
