Breakdown Documents into Study Notes using Templating MistralAI and Qdrant
This n8n workflow takes in a document such as a research paper, marketing or sales deck or company filings, and breaks them down into 3 templates: study guide, briefing doc and timeline. These templates are designed to help a student, associate or clerk quickly summarise, learn and understand the contents to be more productive. Study guide - a short quiz of questions and answered generated by the AI Agent using the contents of the document. Briefing Doc - key information and insights are extracted by the AI into a digestable form. Timeline - key events, durations and people are identified and listed into a simple to understand timeline by the AI How it works A local file trigger watches a local network directory for new documents. New documents are imported into the workflow, its contents extracted and vectorised into a Qdrant vector store to build a mini-knowledgebase. The document then passes through a series of template generating prompts where the AI will perform "research" on the knowledgebase to generate the template contents. Generated study guide, briefing and timeline documents are exported to a designated folder for the user. Requirements Self-hosted version of n8n.

Quick overview This workflow ingests onboarding documents from Google Drive into an in-memory vector store with Google Gemini embeddings, then runs a multi-channel onboarding chatbot powered by Groq, sends role-based welcome emails via Gmail when a new hire appears in Google Sheets, and schedules day 1/7/30 check-in emails. How it works Manually runs an ingestion flow that lists files in a specified Google Drive folder, downloads them, extracts text, and indexes them into an in-memory vector store using Google Gemini embeddings. Receives employee questions via n8n Chat (and optionally Slack or Telegram), normalizes the message into a single format, and rejects empty or overly long inputs. Uses a Groq LLM agent with per-user session memory to retrieve relevant excerpts from the in-memory company_docs knowledge base and generate a grounded answer, or directs the user to HR when no relevant content is found. Routes the assistant’s response back to the originating channel (n8n Chat, and optionally Slack or Telegram). Triggers every minute on updates to a Google Sheets “Hires” sheet, validates rows marked as Hired, and skips hires already present in the “Tracking” sheet. Builds a depart
Scrape and summarize webpages with AI
This workflow integrates both web scraping and NLP functionalities. It uses HTML parsing to extract links, HTTP requests to fetch essay content, and AI-based summarization using GPT-4o. It's an excellent example of an end-to-end automated task that is not only efficient but also provides real value by summarizing valuable content. Note that to use this template, you need to be on n8n version 1.50.0 or later.
