AI-Powered Telegram Manager Built with n8n 🤖
I built an AI-powered Telegram assistant using n8n that brings multiple business tasks into one conversational interface.
Instead of switching between different apps to manage emails, calendars, contacts, and research, users can send a message through Telegram and let the AI agent route the request to the appropriate tool.
What the Workflow Can Do
Calendar Management: Schedule, reschedule, and manage meetings.
Email Automation: Send emails, draft replies, retrieve inbox data, and manage email labels.
Contact Management: Retrieve contact details and update records.
Web Research: Gather information and research topics.
Content Creation: Generate tailored content based on user instructions.
Tech Stack
n8n for workflow automation
OpenAI for AI-powered reasoning and tool selection
Telegram as the conversational interface
Custom tools and specialized agents for task execution
Why This Matters
The goal is to reduce context switching, eliminate repetitive administrative tasks, and make everyday business operations more efficient.
The system uses a central AI agent to interpret requests and select the appropriate tools, creating a flexible foundation for more advanced automations.
Future possibilities include CRM updates, lead qualification, task management, customer support, and automated reporting.
Project focus: AI agents, workflow automation, and practical business productivity.

Kajabi Wellness Education Platform Development
Developed a Kajabi-based wellness education platform for Nilda that combined online learning, CRM integrations, and a structured course ecosystem. The project focused on creating an intuitive educational experience, streamlining user journeys, and supporting long-term engagement through scalable platform architecture and conversion-focused design.
The Kajabi-to-CRM handoff is a useful part of this build to unpack. I’d check that a learner who purchases stops receiving prospect follow-ups and gets the right access message, including when the same email already exists in the CRM. Which system owns that customer-status change here?
Most inbound bottlenecks aren't caused by low lead volume—they happen during triage.
When inquiries roll into a Google Sheet or CRM, operations teams often waste 10–15 minutes per submission reading through messy paragraphs, deciphering budget mismatch, and manually deciding who gets an immediate call vs. a standard rate sheet.
Instead of adding a bulky CRM add-on, I documented a lightweight 3-step automation pipeline built inside Make:
Intake & Extraction: An active listener triggers immediately upon a new submission, extracting core variables: client scope, target deliverables, timeline, and stated budget.
Context-Aware Evaluation (Gemini 2.5 Flash): The payload passes through an AI evaluation node with strict guardrails:
Evaluates budget against minimum agency criteria.
Assigns a triage score: Hot (immediate priority), Warm (nurture), or Cold (disqualified/template reply).
Generates a strict 15-word operational summary—no long paragraphs.
Determines an automated next step (e.g., routing to an account lead or flagging for asynchronous follow-up).
Data Return & Clean Pipeline: Appends the structured classification directly back to the master operational tracker, keeping the sheet filterable and clean.
The outcome: The sales and operations team can filter the entire board by priority status in two clicks, cutting first-touch response time to minutes without manually reading every single submission.
I’ve documented the full scenario map, execution logic, and data schemas below.
Curious how other agency operators and automation leads here handle their lead enrichment layer—are you doing AI scoring at the form level, or later in the CRM pipeline?:
For the budget gate, I'd keep an unstated budget separate from one explicitly below your minimum. Does the Make route ask for clarification when the amount or currency is missing, so a potentially suitable lead doesn't fall into Cold by default?
🚀 ST Automation Cloud - Enterprise AI Automation SaaS
What it does:
ST Automation Cloud is a next-generation platform that connects your daily business tools (Gmail, Google Sheets, Slack, Discord, Webhooks) into one unified workspace. Powered by Gemini AI, it allows users to build visual, multi-step automation workflows without writing a single line of code. It handles everything from data syncing to executing complex, autonomous AI pipelines.
How it is profitable (Business Value):
Massive Time & Cost Savings: By automating repetitive tasks (like lead generation, email sorting, and data entry), it saves hundreds of man-hours, directly reducing operational costs.
Zero Human Error: Automated workflows ensure 100% accuracy in data transfer between different apps, eliminating costly manual mistakes.
Infinite Scalability: Businesses can scale their operations 10x without needing to hire more staff. The autonomous AI agents work 24/7 in the background.
High-Throughput ROI: With enterprise-grade security and a premium user interface, it provides a quick return on investment by streamlining critical pipelines.
In short: It transforms manual, time-consuming operations into a fast, reliable, and fully automated digital workforce.
I'd distinguish a completed action from a completed workflow in the run history. If Gmail sends successfully but the next Slack step fails, can a user resume from Slack without sending the email again?
