Brief
Automate your morning tech brief! This workflow scrapes headlines from The Verge and Product Hunt, uses parallel AI agents to format them specifically for Slack (Markdown) and Telegram (HTML), and broadcasts daily updates to your team channels.
This workflow automates the creation and delivery of a professional morning tech briefing. It triggers daily at 10:00 AM to perform the following actions:
- Scrapes News: Uses BrowserAct to fetch the latest headlines and links from major tech sources like The Verge and Product Hunt.
- AI Formatting: Splits the data into two parallel paths where AI agents (via OpenRouter) format the content—creating clean HTML for Telegram and developer-friendly Markdown for Slack.
- Smart Splitting & Sending: Automatically handles character limits by splitting long digests into multiple parts before broadcasting them to your defined Slack channels and Telegram chats.
This template is designed to scrape:
- Headlines: The main titles of the latest articles and product launches.
- Article URLs: Direct links to the full stories.
- Context: Brief summaries or metadata associated with the headlines to populate the daily digest.
Scraping these sources allows you to:
- Save Time: Eliminate the manual effort of visiting multiple sites to copy-paste links every morning.
- Stay Informed: Ensure Product Managers and Dev teams never miss a trending tool or tech update.
- Consolidate Information: Create a single source of truth for your community or team to discuss the day's most important tech news.
- Credentials: Connect your BrowserAct, OpenRouter, Telegram, and Slack accounts in n8n.
- BrowserAct Setup: Ensure the "Automated Multi-Site Morning Brief" template is saved in your BrowserAct account.
- Configure Channels:
- Telegram: Open the "Send a text message" node and enter your Chat ID.
- Slack: Open the "Send a message" node and select your target channel.
- Activate: Turn on the workflow (default trigger is 10:00 AM) to start receiving briefs.
Customization Options:
- Change Sources: Update the BrowserAct node inputs to scrape other sites like Hacker News or TechCrunch.
- Adjust AI Persona: Modify the system prompts in the "Telegram Master" or "Slack Master" nodes to change the tone (e.g., from "Professional" to "Casual").
Requirements:
- BrowserAct account (with the relevant template).
- OpenRouter account (or other LLM credentials).
- Telegram Bot Token & Slack Workspace.
