The demo flow in the screenshots reads really naturally, and recommending cuts by face shape is a clever touch that makes it feel personal rather than robotic. Have you seen it reduce no-shows in practice yet?
Thanks Timothy! Appreciate the feedback.Yes in early testing in 2 barber shops, the AI follow up & text confirmation cut no shows from 30% to under 10%. Still collecting more data but the personal touch seems to help clients actually show up
When the agent offers a time, is that slot locked right away? If two customers get the same slot in one minute, which one gets it?

Picture a consultant who takes 8 sales calls a week.
After each one comes the same routine: replay the recording, write notes, update the pipeline sheet, write the follow-up email. Call it 30 minutes a call. That is 4 hours a week, and on busy days the follow-up slips to tomorrow.
I built an n8n workflow that takes that routine away:
→ Fireflies records and transcribes the call
→ As soon as the transcript is ready, AI writes a summary, the open questions, the next step and whether the prospect is ready to go ahead
→ A follow-up email that fits that outcome is saved in Gmail drafts, addressed to the person on the call
→ The call is logged in Google Sheets and the notes land in your inbox
Nothing is sent automatically. You read the draft, change a line if you want, and press send.
For that consultant, 4 hours of admin a week turns into a few minutes of reading, and every prospect hears back the same day.
I tested it on a real recorded client call and have submitted it to the n8n template library as a free template. If you want it set up for your business, send me a message.

Think about how much time you spend every week doing the same things.
Replying to customer emails.
Following up with potential clients.
Updating spreadsheets.
Managing leads.
Moving information between applications.
Sending reminders and notifications.
Now ask yourself:
𝗛𝗼𝘄 𝗺𝘂𝗰𝗵 𝗼𝗳 𝘁𝗵𝗶𝘀 𝗮𝗰𝘁𝘂𝗮𝗹𝗹𝘆 𝗻𝗲𝗲𝗱𝘀 𝘁𝗼 𝗯𝗲 𝗱𝗼𝗻𝗲 𝗺𝗮𝗻𝘂𝗮𝗹𝗹𝘆?
Many repetitive business tasks can be automated, yet businesses continue spending valuable hours doing them manually.

Imagine a workflow where:
• A customer submits an inquiry, and their details are automatically recorded.
• Incoming emails are categorized, and relevant replies are drafted for review.
• New leads are added to your CRM without manual data entry.
• Important tasks trigger notifications and reminders automatically.
• Your business applications exchange information without constant copying and pasting.
• AI helps process documents, organize information, and handle repetitive administrative work.

You don't have to automate everything overnight. Sometimes, solving just one repetitive problem is the best place to start.
Your time should go toward growing your business, not repeating tasks that a system could handle.

CRAG — Self-Correcting Research Assistant
Overview
A research-assistant project exploring how AI applications can retrieve information and improve the quality of their responses through a self-correction workflow.
Project focus
Python-based AI application development.
Retrieval and research workflow design.
Improving answer reliability through evaluation and correction.
Technologies: Python, AI, retrieval-augmented generation.
Self-correcting retrieval is the upgrade RAG has needed, Daniel. Most systems stop at the first retrieval and hope for the best, so building evaluation and correction into the workflow is a real reliability win. The live telemetry dashboard makes it feel production-ready.
