It queries the NewsAPI to retrieve top headlines by country, category, or keyword. Headlines are formatted and enriched with your configured query context. The AI model (GPT-4) analyzes articles and summarizes key insights, categorizing them as Opportunities, Risks, or Trends. Finally, the summarized insights are posted directly into a Slack channel of your choice. ⸻ How to set up Set your schedule frequency in the Schedule Trigger node. Configure your preferred country, category, and keyword in the Inject Config node. Add your NewsAPI Key inside the Fetch News Articles node. Connect your Slack credentials in the Post to Slack node. Optional: Adjust the AI prompt for more tailored analysis. ⸻ Requirements A NewsAPI account to fetch headlines. An OpenAI API key for GPT-4 summarization. A Slack workspace and connected credentials via n8n. ⸻ How to customize the workflow Change the country, category, or keyword in the Inject Config to focus on specific markets or sectors. Adjust the AI prompt in the GPT node to prioritize certain insights like ESG factors, M&A activity, or market sentiment. Extend the workflow to log results to Google Sheets, email summaries, or send SMS alerts. Replace the Schedule Trigger with a Webhook if you want to trigger summaries on demand. This template is designed to be modular, making it easy to adapt for competitive intelligence, investment tracking, or industry news curation.

This n8n template is one of a 3-part series exploring use-cases for clustering vector embeddings: Survey Insights Customer Insights Community Insights This template demonstrates the Community Insights scenario where HN commments can be quickly grouped by similarity and an AI agent can generate insights on those groupings. With this workflow, Researchers or HN users can quickly breakdown community consensus on a particular topic and identify frequently mentioned positives and negatives. Sample Output: https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/e/2PACX-1vQXaQU9XxsxnUIIeqmmf1PuYRuYtwviVXTv6Mz9Vo6_a4ty-XaJHSeZsptjWXS3wGGDG8Z4u16rvE7l/pubhtml How it works HN comments are imported via the Hacknews API node. Comments are then inserted into a Qdrant collection carefully tagged with the Hackernews API metadata. Comments are then fetched and are put through a clustering algorithm using the Python Code node. The Qdrant points are returned in clustered groups. Each group is looped to fetch the payloads of the points and feed them to the AI agent to summarise and generate insights for. The resulting insights and raw responses are then saved to the Google Spreadsheet for further analysis by the researcher or the HN user. Requirements Works best with lots of comments! Qdrant Vectorstore for storing embeddings. OpenAI account for embeddings and LLM. Customising the Template Adjust clustering parameters which make sense for your data. Adjust sentimentality setting if comments are overwhelmingly negative at times.

🔥 Upgrade to V3 Longer blogs, Higher SEO ranking with images, charts and tables We’ve released Version 3 of our AI-Powered Blog Automation workflow. We heard your complains and made a complete redesign built for serious content creators. 📝 Read the New Articles Generated by v3 🛒 View the workflow on n8n.io ✅ Longer Blog contents 3-Agent AI Architecture as the Planner, Writer, Editor: simulate a full content team for structure, writing, and QC. A more continuous flow 📈 2x bump in SEO ranking SEO Scoring System so every article is graded on keyword density, readability, structure, backlinks, and uniqueness. IF quality doesnt meet threshold, we revise the content again. 🖼️ Smarter Visuals In-blog images via Leonardo, charts via QuickChart, tables and web scraped outbound links 🕸️ Multi-Platform Publishing Auto-posts to WordPress, Twitter (X), and Dev.to 🕵️‍♂️ Research Agent Adds quotes, stats, facts, outbound links, entities, and references to improve article credibility Content Farming V2 AI Powered Blog Automation for WordPress This workflow automatically generates and publishes 10 blog posts per day to a WordPress site. It collects tech-related news articles, filters and analyzes them for relevance, expands them with research, generates SEO-optimized long-form articles using AI, creates a matching image using Leonardo AI, and publishes them via the WordPress REST API. Every step is tracked and stored in MongoDB for reference and performance tracking. You can see the demo results for the AI based articles here: Emp0 Articles How it works A scheduler runs daily to fetch the latest news from RSS feeds including BBC, TechCrunch, Wired, MIT Tech Review, HackerNoon, and others. The RSS data is normalized and filtered to include only articles published within the past 24 hours. Each article is passed through an OpenAI-powered classifier to check for relevance to predefined user topics like AI, robotics, or tech policy. Relevant articles are then aggregated, researched, and summarized with supporting sources and citations. An AI agent generates five long-tail SEO blog title ideas, ranks them by uniqueness and performance score, and selects the top one. A blog outline is created including H1 and H2 headers, keyword targeting, content structure, and featured snippet optimization. A full-length article (1000 to 1500 words) is generated based on the outline, with analogies, citations, examples, and keyword density maintained. SEO metadata is produced including meta title, description, image alt text, slug, and a readability audit. An AI-generated image is created based on the blog theme using Leonardo AI, enhanced for emotional storytelling and visual consistency. The blog article, metadata, and image are uploaded to WordPress as a draft, the image is attached, Yoast SEO metadata is set, and the article is published. All outputs including article versions, metadata, generation steps, and final blog URLs are stored in MongoDB to allow for future analytics and feedback. Requirements To run this project, you need accounts and API access for the following: | Tool | Purpose | Notes | |--------------|------------------------------------------------------------------|-----------------------------------------------------------------------| | OpenAI | Used for blog classification, generation, summarization, SEO | Around $0.20 per day, using GPT-4o-mini. Estimated monthly: $6 | | MongoDB | Stores data flexibly including drafts, titles, metadata, logs | Free tier on MongoDB Atlas offers 512 MB, enough for 64,000 articles | | Leonardo AI | Generates featured images for blog articles | $9 for 3500 credits, $5 monthly top-up needed for 300 images | | WordPress | Final publishing platform via REST API | Hosted on Hostinger for $15/year including domain | Setup Instructions Import the provided JSON file into your n8n instance. Configure these credentials in n8n: OpenAI API key MongoDB Atlas connection string HTTP Header Auth for Leonardo AI WordPress REST API credentials Modify the classifier and prompt nodes to reflect your preferred content themes. Adjust scheduler nodes if you want to change post frequency or publishing times. Run the n8n instance continuously using Docker, PM2, or hosted automation platform. Cost Estimate | Component | Daily Usage | Monthly Cost Estimate | |---------------|------------------------------|------------------------| | OpenAI | 10 posts per day | ~$6 | | Leonardo AI | 10 images per day (15 credits each) | ~$14 (9 base + 5 top-up) | | MongoDB | Free up to 512 MB | $0 | | WordPress | Hosting and domain | ~$1.25 | | Total | | ~$21/month | Observations and Learnings This system can scale daily article publishing with zero manual effort. However, current limitations include inconsistent blog length and occasional coherence issues. To address this, I plan to build a feedback loop within the workflow: An SEO Commentator Agent will assess keyword strength, structure, and discoverability. An Editor-in-Chief Agent will review tone, clarity, and narrative structure. Both agents will loop back suggestions to the content generator, improving each draft until it meets human-level standards. The final goal is to consistently produce high-quality, readable, SEO-optimized content that is indistinguishable from human writing.

Who is this for? Marketing, content, and enablement teams that need a quick, human-readable summary of every new video published by the YouTube channels they care about—without leaving Slack. What problem does this workflow solve? Manually checking multiple channels, skimming long videos, and pasting the highlights into Slack wastes time. This template automates the whole loop: detect a fresh upload from your selected channels → pull subtitles → distill the key take-aways with GPT-4o-mini → drop a neatly-formatted digest in Slack. What this workflow does Schedule Trigger fires every 10 min, then grabs a list of YouTube RSS feeds from a Google Sheet. HTTP + XML fetch & parse each feed; only brand-new videos continue. YouTube API fetches title/description, RapidAPI grabs English subtitles. Code nodes build an AI payload; OpenAI returns a JSON summary + article. A formatter turns that JSON into Slack Block Kit, and Slack posts it. Processed links are appended back to the “Video Links” sheet to prevent dupes. Setup Make a copy of this Google Sheet and connect a Google Sheets OAuth2 credential with edit rights. Slack App: create → add chat:write, channels:read, app_mention; enable Event Subscriptions; install and store the Bot OAuth token in an n8n Slack credential. RapidAPI key for https://yt-api.p.rapidapi.com/subtitles (300 free calls/mo) → save as HTTP Header Auth. OpenAI key → save in an OpenAI credential. Add your RSS feed URLs to the “RSS Feed URLs” tab; press Execute Workflow. How to customise Adjust the schedule interval or freshness window in “If newly published”. Swap the OpenAI model or prompt for shorter/longer digests. Point the Slack node at a different channel or DM. Extend the AI payload to include thumbnails or engagement stats.

Who is this workflow template for? This workflow template is perfect for freelancers, small business owners, accounting teams, or anyone responsible for managing and recording invoices regularly. If you deal with multiple invoices and spend considerable time manually entering invoice data into a database, this automation will significantly simplify your daily operations and reduce potential errors. What this workflow does The workflow automates the entire invoice logging process. It continuously monitors a designated Google Drive folder every minute for new PDF invoice uploads. Once a new invoice is detected, it is automatically converted from PDF to an image format using the ILovePDF API. After conversion, Google's Gemini AI analyzes the image, intelligently extracting essential details such as vendor name, item description, invoice amount, invoice date, payment date, and bank reference numbers. Finally, this structured data is automatically recorded in an Airtable database (or optionally in a Google Sheet), ensuring organized, accessible records. Detailed Workflow Explanation Step 1: Invoice Detection** Monitors Google Drive for newly uploaded PDF invoices. Step 2: PDF to Image Conversion** Converts PDFs into images using ILovePDF. Step 3: Data Extraction via Gemini AI** Uses Gemini AI to analyze the invoice image. Extracts data such as Vendor, Description, Amount, Invoice Date, Paid Date, and Bank Reference. Provides clear descriptions even when original invoice descriptions are vague or missing by analyzing vendor context. Step 4: Structured Data Storage** Automatically sends extracted data to Airtable or Google Sheets. Step 5: File Management** Moves processed PDF files into a separate "Done" folder to clearly differentiate between processed and unprocessed invoices. Step-by-Step Setup Instructions Set Up Google Drive: Log in to Google Drive and create two folders: One named Invoices (for incoming PDF files) One named Processed (for processed files) Obtain API Credentials: ILovePDF API: Sign up at ILovePDF Developers.
