Template description
This n8n workflow takes in a document such as a research paper, marketing or sales deck or company filings, and breaks them down into 3 templates: study guide, briefing doc and timeline.
These templates are designed to help a student, associate or clerk quickly summarise, learn and understand the contents to be more productive.
- Study guide - a short quiz of questions and answered generated by the AI Agent using the contents of the document.
- Briefing Doc - key information and insights are extracted by the AI into a digestable form.
- Timeline - key events, durations and people are identified and listed into a simple to understand timeline by the AI
How it works
- A local file trigger watches a local network directory for new documents.
- New documents are imported into the workflow, its contents extracted and vectorised into a Qdrant vector store to build a mini-knowledgebase.
- The document then passes through a series of template generating prompts where the AI will perform "research" on the knowledgebase to generate the template contents.
- Generated study guide, briefing and timeline documents are exported to a designated folder for the user.
Requirements
- Self-hosted version of n8n.
- Qdrant instance for knowledgebase.
- Mistral.ai account for embeddings and AI model.

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.
