A lead fills out a form on your website. What happens in the next 5 minutes
decides whether they become a customer — or forget you exist.
THE PROBLEM
Leads sit in a mailbox or a spreadsheet until someone notices them. By then,
78% of buyers have already contacted a competitor.
THE SOLUTION
Lead Machine — an n8n pipeline that handles every inbound lead automatically,
from form submission to follow-up email in about 30 seconds, 24/7:
webhook → validation → duplicate check → Google Sheets → welcome email
→ Telegram alert to the manager → automatic follow-up in 24h
Every step is plain n8n nodes: no AI keys, no token fees, no monthly SaaS.
Validation rules, email texts, follow-up delay — all editable in the n8n UI.
It runs on YOUR infrastructure: credentials stay with you.
Which Plushie Email Verification Design Do You Prefer?
I explored a couple of directions for Plushie’s email verification experience, keeping the core idea the same while experimenting with different layouts, visual hierarchy, and ways to make the verification code feel more playful.
Version 01 - Visual-first, with a strong hero illustration
Version 02 - More structured, clean, and email-focused
Both follow the same soft, plushie-inspired visual language.
Version 02, mostly because showing it inside the actual email client chrome builds more trust that this is really landing in the inbox. Version 01's illustration is charming but it's competing with the code for attention.
Built an AI-powered customer support automation workflow that can classify incoming emails, identify support requests, retrieve relevant information from a knowledge base, and assist with generating the right response.
The workflow combines AI agents, RAG, embeddings, Pinecone, Gmail, and automated notifications to reduce repetitive support work while keeping human review in the loop.
The flow includes:
📩 Incoming email detection
🤖 AI-based support request classification
📚 Knowledge base retrieval with Pinecone
🧠 Context-aware customer support agent
✍️ Automated response draft generation
🔔 Reviewer notification through Telegram
⚡ Separate handling for non-support emails
I’ve been exploring more ways to combine AI + automation + real-world business workflows, rather than using AI only as a chatbot.
