Template description
What this workflow does
Are you a leading tech accelerator (named after a higher-order function) buried under thousands of pitch decks daily? Struggling to quickly identify the next big startup because these decks are too design-heavy for traditional parsing tools?
You’re in luck! This n8n template leverages multimodal LLMs to efficiently extract key information from even the most intricate pitch decks. Not only does it analyze content at scale, but it also builds the foundation for a RAG chatbot—so you and your team can explore deeper insights at any time. With this solution, you’ll never miss the hidden gems again!
Requirements
- n8n v1.62.1+
- OpenAI (for LLM)
- Airtable (as the pitch deck database)
- Qdrant (for the vector store)
How It Works
Airtable serves as the pitch deck repository, where uploaded PDFs are stored.
An AI Vision model transcribes each PDF page into markdown.
The markdown is processed by an Information Extractor, which generates a summary and updates key fields in Airtable.
The markdown content is also indexed into Qdrant, creating a searchable AI chatbot that lets you interact with the pitch deck data.

How To Use
- Duplicate the Airtable: Use the template above to create your own Airtable with the same structure.
- Upload a Pitch Deck: Add the company name in the Name column and upload the PDF into the File column. Leave other fields blank.
- Trigger Workflow:
If the Airtable trigger is enabled, the workflow starts automatically when a new file is uploaded.
You can also manually trigger the workflow to process any "new" pitch decks in bulk.
Each pitch deck will be processed individually in separate executions.
Customization Ideas
Enhanced Validation: Add agents to verify claims from pitch decks (e.g., LinkedIn profiles, website traffic, product reviews).
Tailored Reports: Modify the extraction logic to generate customized reports for your accelerator’s needs.
Chatbot Extensions: Use the chatbot to compare multiple startups, filter based on specific criteria, or surface competitor insights.
With this template, you’ll scale your ability to uncover promising startups—turning overwhelming data into actionable insights in no time!

Actioning Your Meeting Next Steps using Transcripts and AI
This n8n workflow demonstrates how you can summarise and automate post-meeting actions from video transcripts fed into an AI Agent.
Save time between meetings by allowing AI handle the chores of organising follow-up meetings and invites.
How it works
This workflow scans for the calendar for client or team meetings which were held online. * Attempts will be made to fetch any recorded transcripts which are then sent to the AI agent.
The AI agent summarises and identifies if any follow-on meetings are required.
If found, the Agent will use its Calendar Tool to to create the event for the time, date and place for the next meeting as well as add known attendees.
Requirements
Google Calendar and the ability to fetch Meeting Transcripts (There is a special OAuth permission for this action!)
OpenAI account for access to the LLM.
Customising the workflow
This example only books follow-on meetings but could be extended to generate reports or send emails.

Invoice data extraction with LlamaParse and OpenAI
This n8n workflow automates the process of parsing and extracting data from PDF invoices. With this workflow, accounts and finance people can realise huge time and cost savings in their busy schedules.
Read the Blog: https://blog.n8n.io/how-to-extract-data-from-pdf-to-excel-spreadsheet-advance-parsing-with-n8n-io-and-llamaparse/
How it works
This workflow will watch an email inbox for incoming invoices from suppliers
It will download the attached PDFs and processing them through a third party service called LlamaParse.
LlamaParse is specifically designed to handle and convert complex PDF data structures such as tables to markdown.
Markdown is easily to process for LLM models and so the data extraction by our AI agent is more accurate and reliable.
The workflow exports the extracted data from the AI agent to Google Sheets once the job complete.
Requirements
The criteria of the email trigger must be configured to capture emails with attachments.
The gmail label "invoice synced" must be created before using this workflow.
A LlamaIndex.ai account to use the LlamaParse service.
An OpenAI account to use GPT for AI work.
Google Sheets to save the output of the data extraction process although this can be replaced for whatever your needs.
Customizing this workflow
This workflow uses Gmail and Google Sheets but these can easily be swapped out for equivalent services such as Outlook and Excel.
Not using Excel? Simple redirect the output of the AI agent to your accounting software of choice.

Extract expenses from emails and add to Google Sheets
This workflow will check a mailbox for new emails and if the Subject contains Expenses or Reciept it will send the attachment to Mindee for processing then it will update a Google sheet with the values.
To use this node you will need to set the Email Read node to use your mailboxes credentials and configure the Mindee and Google Sheets nodes to use your credentials.

Scrape and summarize webpages with AI
This workflow integrates both web scraping and NLP functionalities. It uses HTML parsing to extract links, HTTP requests to fetch essay content, and AI-based summarization using GPT-4o. It's an excellent example of an end-to-end automated task that is not only efficient but also provides real value by summarizing valuable content.
Note that to use this template, you need to be on n8n version 1.50.0 or later.

AI agent that can scrape webpages
⚙️🛠️🚀🤖🦾
This template is a PoC of a ReAct AI Agent capable of fetching random pages (not only Wikipedia or Google search results).
On the top part there's a manual chat node connected to a LangChain ReAct Agent. The agent has access to a workflow tool for getting page content.
The page content extraction starts with converting query parameters into a JSON object. There are 3 pre-defined parameters:
url** – an address of the page to fetch
method** = full / simplified
maxlimit** - maximum length for the final page. For longer pages an error message is returned back to the agent
Page content fetching is a multistep process:
An HTTP Request mode tries to get the page content.
If the page content was successfuly retrieved, a series of post-processing begin:
Extract HTML BODY; content
Remove all unnecessary tags to recude the page size
Further eliminate external URLs and IMG scr values (based on the method query parameter)
Remaining HTML is converted to Markdown, thus recuding the page lengh even more while preserving the basic page structure
The remaining content is sent back to an Agent if it's not too long (maxlimit = 70000 by default, see CONFIG node).
NB:
You can isolate the HTTP Request part into a separate workflow.
Check the Workflow Tool description, it guides the agent to provide a query string with several parameters instead of a JSON object.
