📝 Description

🤖 What this workflow does

This workflow turns Reddit pain points into emotionally-driven comic-style ads using AI.
It takes in a product description, scrapes Reddit for real user pain points, filters
relevant posts using AI, generates ad angles, rewrites them into 4-panel comic prompts,
and finally uses Dumpling AI to generate comic-style images. All final creatives
are uploaded to Google Drive.


🧠 What problem is this solving?

Crafting ad content that truly speaks to customer struggles is time-consuming.
This workflow automates that entire process — from pain point discovery to visual
creative output — using AI and Reddit as a source of truth for customer language.


👤 Who is this for?

  • Copywriters and performance marketers
  • Startup founders and indie hackers
  • Creatives building empathy-driven ad concepts
  • Automation experts looking to generate scroll-stopping content

⚙️ Setup Instructions

Here’s how to set everything up, step by step:


🔹 1. Trigger: Form Input

Node: 📝 Form - Submit Product Info
This form asks the user to enter:

  • Brand Name
  • Website
  • Product Description

Make sure this form is active and testable.


🔹 2. Generate Reddit Keyword

Node: 🧠 GPT-4o - Generate Reddit Keyword
Uses the product description to generate a search keyword based on what your audience might be discussing on Reddit.


🔹 3. Search Reddit

Node: 🔍 Reddit - Search Posts
Uses the keyword to search Reddit for relevant threads.
Make sure your Reddit integration is properly configured.


🔹 4. Filter Valid Posts

Node: 🔎 IF - Check Upvotes & Text Length
Filters out low-effort or unpopular posts. Only keeps posts with:

  • Minimum 2 upvotes
  • Content at least 100 characters long

✅ You can adjust these thresholds in the node settings.


🔹 5. Clean Reddit Output

Node: 🧼 Code - Structure Reddit Posts
This formats the list of posts into clean JSON for the AI agents to process.


🔹 6. Check Relevance with AI Agent

Node: 🤔 Langchain Agent - Post Relevance Classifier
This node uses a LangChain agent (tool: think2) to determine if each post
is relevant to your product. Only relevant ones are passed forward.


🔹 7. Aggregate Relevant Posts

Node: 📦 Code - Merge Relevant Posts
Collects all relevant posts into a clean format for the next GPT-4 call.


🔹 8. Generate Ad Angles

Node: ✍️ GPT-4o - Generate Emotional Ad Angles
Writes 10 pain-point-based marketing angles using real customer language.


🔹 9. Rank the Best Angles

Node: 📊 GPT-4o - Rank Top 10 Angles
Scores the generated angles and ranks them from most to least powerful.
Only the top 3 are passed forward.


🔹 10. Turn Angles into Comic Prompts

Node: 🎭 GPT-4o - Write Comic Scene Prompts
Rewrites each of the top ad angles into a 4-panel comic strip structure
(pain → tension → product → resolution).


🔹 11. Generate Comic Images

Node: 🎨 Dumpling AI - Generate Comic Panels
Sends each prompt to Dumpling AI to create visual comic scenes.


🔹 12. Wait for Image Generation

Node: ⏳ Wait - Dumpling AI Response Time
Adds a delay to give Dumpling AI time to finish generating all images.


🔹 13. Get Final Image URLs

Node: 🔗 Code - Extract Image URLs from Dumpling Response
Extracts all image links for preview/download.


🔹 14. Upload to Google Drive

Node: ☁️ Google Drive - Upload Comics
Uploads the comic images to your chosen Google Drive folder.
✅ Update this node with your destination folder ID.


🔹 15. Log Final Output

Optional
You can extend the flow to log the image links, ad angles, and Reddit sources
to Google Sheets, Airtable, or Notion depending on your use case.


🛠️ How to Customize

  • ✏️ Adjust tone: Update GPT-4 system prompts to sound more humorous, emotional, or brand-specific.
  • 🧵 Use different styles: Swap Dumpling AI image settings for ink sketch, manga, or cartoon renderings.
  • 🔄 Change input source: Replace Reddit with X (Twitter), Quora, or YouTube comments.
  • 📦 Store results differently: Swap Google Drive for Notion, Dropbox, or Airtable.

This workflow turns real audience struggles into thumb-stopping comic content — automatically.
