Introduction ​

NodePit is a platform for the KNIME ecosystem. It started in 2017 as a search engine for KNIME nodes and workflows and has since grown into a broader suite of tools for KNIME users and developers, including a curated catalog of extensions, workflow discovery, a free API, and NodePit Runner for workflow automation. Everything shown here is also on nodepit.com.

What it does ​

  • Find nodes — NodePit indexes every publicly available KNIME node across all extensions and KNIME versions. Search by name, category, or keyword. Each node page shows the description, ports, configuration options, related workflows, and installation instructions
  • Discover workflows — browse published workflows and the nodes they use, to find new nodes in the context of real examples
  • Install with one click — NodePit for KNIME brings NodePit into KNIME Analytics Platform, so you can browse and install nodes without leaving it
  • Share workflows — NodePit Space stores your workflows, privately or in a public folder that NodePit indexes
  • Build on the data — the free REST API and the MCP server give your code and your AI assistant the same data you see on the website

How it fits together ​

Everything starts with the catalog on nodepit.com, which you can use in any browser. NodePit for KNIME makes it part of KNIME itself: a view for browsing and installing, storage for your workflows, and nodes for the API. The API and the MCP server open the same data to scripts and to AI assistants.

NodePit also develops a portfolio of KNIME extensions that cover popular APIs and services. They are distributed as native KNIME nodes, with no Python runtime and no wrapped components. See Nodes & Extensions for the catalog.
