# Marketplace

> Ready-made automations for your business — pick one, connect a couple of your own details, and it just works. No technical setup.

The **Marketplace** is a library of ready-made automations built by other Flow9
businesses. Instead of building a workflow from scratch in
[Workforce Studio](/guide/workforce-studio/overview), you can install one that
already works — a welcome text for new leads, an appointment reminder, a review
request after a job — and make it yours in about a minute.

Open it from **Marketplace** in the sidebar.

## How it works

<CardGroup cols={3}>
  <Card title="Browse" icon="store">
    Every app is described in plain language by the outcome it delivers — no
    jargon. Search, filter by category or industry, and see what works with
    your plan.
  </Card>

  <Card title="Install" icon="download">
    "Use this app" copies it into your account as a **draft** — nothing goes
    live until you say so. A quick guided setup walks you through it.
  </Card>

  <Card title="Make it yours" icon="wand-magic-sparkles">
    Connect your own phone number, inbox, or calendar, send yourself a test,
    then publish. It runs in *your* account, on *your* details.
  </Card>

## Your privacy is built in

Marketplace apps are **sanitized copies**. When someone shares an automation,
Flow9 automatically removes their private details — phone numbers, inboxes,
customer data — and replaces them with blanks you fill with your own. You never
see the author's data, and they never see yours.

<Info>
  Every app is **reviewed by the Flow9 team** before it appears in the Marketplace,
  so what you install has already passed a safety check.

## Good to know

* **Free to install.** Installing an app doesn't cost anything. You only pay for
  what it *sends* (SMS, calls, email) — the same as any automation you build
  yourself.
* **Add-ons.** Some apps use a paid add-on (like SMS or Calling). The
  Marketplace tells you up front whether an app **works with your plan** or
  **needs an add-on**, based on what you already have.
* **Nothing auto-runs.** An installed app is always a draft first. It only does
  anything after you finish setup and publish it.
