# AI nodes in Integration Designer

> AI-powered workflow nodes available in FlowX.AI 5.1.x — text, document, image, and data operations inside Integration Designer.

FlowX.AI 5.1.x ships AI-powered nodes inside [Integration Designer](./integration-designer) that let workflows process text, documents, images, and tabular data without calling external AI services from your own code. Each node family wraps a focused capability and runs inside the same integration workflow as any other node type.

## How they fit into a workflow

AI nodes drop onto the Integration Designer canvas the same way as any other node. Wire them between the start node, conditions, REST calls, and database operations. Inputs come from upstream nodes' output mappings; outputs are written to keys you reference downstream in the same workflow.

For broader Integration Designer context, see the [Integration Designer reference](./integration-designer).

## Patch additions inside 5.1.x

The 5.1.0 baseline above was extended across the LTS line:

| Version | Addition                                                                                                                            |
| ------- | ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- |
| 5.1.1   | Multi-agent system; AI Developer in Command Center (data-model integration, expression generation); document generation in AI nodes |
| 5.1.2   | AI Designer data-model generation for tables                                                                                        |
