Cptn.io is ideal for quickly prototyping a custom backend for specific tasks. While n8n also offers this capability through its webhooks, Cptn is more lightweight and developer-oriented.

To illustrate, suppose I want to create an API that saves a Pinboard link and sends it to a Telegram channel when passed notes. In such cases, Cptn is a better choice than n8n.
