🚀 My First AI Automation

🚀 My First AI Automation Project with n8n

I recently built my first automation project — an AI-Powered Invoice Extraction & Tracking System.

The problem I wanted to solve was simple:

Imagine a business receiving dozens of invoices or cash memos every week. Someone has to open each file, read the information, and manually enter the vendor name, date, items, total amount, and category into a spreadsheet.

That’s repetitive, time-consuming, and easy to get wrong.

So I built a workflow where:

📂 An invoice is uploaded to Google Drive → 🤖 Gemini AI reads and extracts the invoice data → ⚙️ n8n processes and validates the information → 📊 The data is automatically added to Google Sheets

The best part?

No manual data entry. Just upload the invoice and the rest happens automatically.

While building it, I also worked with things like workflow triggers, loop control, API errors/retries, and handling multiple files.

For me, this project was less about simply “building an n8n workflow” and more about learning how AI + automation + data workflows can solve real business problems.

This is just my first step into AI automation, and I’m excited to build more practical systems like this.

If your business has a repetitive process that could be automated with AI, n8n, or data workflows, feel free to DM me. I’d be happy to discuss it.
