Create curated industry trend reports from Medium to Google Docs

This workflow automates the process of market research by generating high-quality, curated digests of Medium articles for specific topics. It scrapes recent content, uses AI to filter out spam and duplicates, categorizes the stories into readable buckets, and compiles everything into a formatted Google Doc report.

Target Audience

Content marketers, market researchers, product managers, and investors looking to track industry trends without reading through noise.

How it works

  1. Schedule: The workflow runs on a defined schedule (e.g., daily or weekly) via the Schedule Trigger.
  2. Define Source: A Set node defines the specific Medium tag URL to track (e.g., /tag/artificial-intelligence).
  3. Scrape Content: BrowserAct visits the target Medium page and scrapes the latest article titles, authors, and summaries.
  4. Analyze & Filter: An AI Agent (powered by Claude via OpenRouter) analyzes the raw feed. It removes duplicates, filters out spam/clickbait, and categorizes high-quality stories into buckets (e.g., "Must Reads," "Engineering," "Wealth").
  5. Create Report: A Google Docs node creates a new document using the digest title generated by the AI.
  6. Build Document: The workflow loops through the analyzed items, appending headers and body text to the Google Doc section by section.
  7. Notify Team: A Slack node sends a message to your chosen channel confirming the report is ready.

How to set up

  1. Configure Credentials: Connect your BrowserAct, Google Docs, Slack, and OpenRouter accounts in n8n.
  2. Prepare BrowserAct: Ensure the Automated Industry Trend Scraper & Outline Creator template is saved in your BrowserAct account.
  3. Set Target Topic: Open the Target Page node and replace the Target_Medium_Link with the Medium tag archive you wish to track (e.g., https://medium.com/tag/bitcoin/archive).
  4. Configure Notification: Open the Send a message node (Slack) and select the channel where you want to receive alerts.
  5. Activate: Turn the workflow on.

Requirements

  • BrowserAct account with the Automated Industry Trend Scraper & Outline Creator template.
  • Google Docs account.
  • Slack account.
  • OpenRouter account (or any compatible LLM credentials).

How to customize the workflow

  1. Adjust the AI Persona: Modify the system prompt in the Analyzer & Script writer node to change the categorization buckets (e.g., change "Engineering" to "Marketing Strategies").
  2. Change the Output Destination: Replace the Google Docs nodes with Notion or Airtable nodes if you prefer a database format over a document.
  3. Add Email Delivery: Add a Gmail or Outlook node at the end to email the finished Google Doc link directly to stakeholders.
