Legal & Compliance templates FAQ

Is AI safe to use for legal document review?

It is when the workflow is governed. Heym templates add human approval checkpoints, source controls, and step-by-step logs, and because Heym is self-hosted your documents never leave your infrastructure.

Can I route AI research through a governance layer?

Yes. The Governed Web Research Agent routes web fetches through a governance proxy, so you control exactly which sources an agent can read and summarize.

Can I customize a template after importing it?

Every node, prompt, credential, and connection is editable after import. Swap the model, change the trigger, add or remove tools, and rewire branches directly on the canvas without writing boilerplate.

Is Heym free and self-hosted?

Yes. Heym is source-available under an MIT license with a Commons Clause, so you can run every template on your own infrastructure with Docker. There is no per-task or per-execution pricing, and your data and credentials stay inside your environment.

Is Heym a good n8n alternative for these workflows?

Heym is a self-hosted, AI-native n8n alternative with a visual canvas, agent nodes, MCP tools, and built-in RAG. These templates run on the same canvas, so you get the flexibility of a node editor with first-class LLM and multi-agent support out of the box.
