AI Personal Assistant & Productivity Automation with n8n
This project showcases an advanced AI productivity assistant built with n8n. The workflow is designed to act like a central automation hub where users can send a chat message or webhook request, and the AI agent can decide which connected tool to use based on the task.
The assistant can manage tasks, update shopping lists, retrieve active tasks, draft Gmail messages, read Google Sheets data, perform deep research, generate HTML output, and respond back through webhooks. It also includes support for integrations such as Microsoft Teams and Home Assistant, making it flexible for both business productivity and personal automation use cases.
The goal of this project was to build a smart workflow that goes beyond simple automation. Instead of running one fixed process, the AI agent can understand the request, choose the right tool, and complete actions across multiple platforms from one conversational interface.

I built an automated lead generation system using Make.com that finds businesses on Google Maps and extracts their emails, completely automatically.
Here's exactly how it works:
🗺️ Connects to Google Maps API and searches any industry in any location
📊 Creates a Google Sheet automatically and populates it with business names and websites
📧 Makes HTTP requests to each website and extracts email addresses using AI
✅ Ignores errors automatically and moves to the next lead
⏰ Can be scheduled to run every 15 minutes on autopilot
I ran it live and it found 50 marketing agencies in Bangkok with their emails, automatically.
Any industry. Any location. Anywhere in the world.
As long as the business is on Google Maps, this finds them.

Smart OCR Automation with n8n AI Workflow
A powerful n8n automation project built to compare and automate multiple document extraction methods in one clean workflow system. This setup includes four organized processing paths: No OCR, Gemini Vision, Mistral OCR, and LlamaCloud, making it easy to test, extract, and send PDF content into Google Docs with different levels of AI intelligence.
Each workflow starts from Google Drive file search and download, then moves through loops, extraction, base64 conversion, API calls, parsing, wait steps, and final document updates. The structure is clean, modular, and easy to understand, showing how an advanced n8n workflow can handle document automation from simple PDF extraction to AI-powered OCR processing.
This project is ideal for businesses that manage invoices, reports, contracts, forms, scanned PDFs, or client documents. By combining workflow automation, Google Drive, Google Docs, Gemini Vision, Mistral OCR, and LlamaCloud, the system reduces manual copy-paste work and creates a faster, more accurate document handling process.
A smart example of ai automation designed for agencies, admin teams, finance workflows, and operations that need scalable document processing. Built with a practical automation mindset, this workflow turns repetitive file tasks into a smooth, reliable, and intelligent pipeline.
AI Email Outreach & Scheduling Automation
A business was managing customer communication across 4 separate tools manually. WhatsApp messages, CRM updates, calendar bookings, and email confirmations were all disconnected — leads were falling through the gaps constantly.
I built a unified n8n pipeline connecting all 4 channels. When a lead messages on WhatsApp, the workflow automatically updates the CRM, books a calendar slot, and sends a confirmation email — all in one flow.
No manual data entry. No missed follow-ups. Everything synced in real time.
Tools: n8n · WhatsApp · CRM · Google Calendar · Email
Result: Full customer journey automated from first message to booked appointment.
