About
Mimir Lab
An AI automation lab building and documenting systems that work in production — not in demos.
What is Mimir Lab?
Mimir Lab is a technical lab focused on AI automation — specifically on building, documenting, and teaching real systems using tools like n8n, the Claude API, ElevenLabs, and other infrastructure that makes it possible to run autonomous pipelines on your own terms.
Most AI content online is surface-level. Mimir Lab goes deeper: we publish the actual workflow JSON, the real API costs, the failures and lessons, and the architecture decisions behind what we build.
The name comes from Mímir — the Norse figure who guarded the well of wisdom at the root of Yggdrasil. Knowledge isn't passive. It requires systems to capture, process, and act on it.
What we write about
Real projects, real timelines, real decisions. We document what we're building as we build it.
Deep dives on specific tools — n8n, Claude, ElevenLabs, HeyGen — with honest pros, cons, and pricing.
Technical explainers on concepts: agentic loops, multi-agent systems, RAG pipelines, prompt engineering.
Actual API costs, infra bills, and ROI calculations. No vague "it's affordable" — real numbers.
Post-mortems and retrospectives on what broke, why, and what we changed.
