Description
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
Schedule: The workflow runs on a defined schedule (e.g., daily or weekly) via the Schedule Trigger.
Define Source: A Set node defines the specific Medium tag URL to track (e.g., /tag/artificial-intelligence).
Scrape Content: BrowserAct visits the target Medium page and scrapes the latest article titles, authors, and summaries.
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").
Create Report: A Google Docs node creates a new document using the digest title generated by the AI.
Build Document: The workflow loops through the analyzed items, appending headers and body text to the Google Doc section by section.
Notify Team: A Slack node sends a message to your chosen channel confirming the report is ready.
How to set up
Configure Credentials: Connect your BrowserAct, Google Docs, Slack, and OpenRouter accounts in n8n.
Prepare BrowserAct: Ensure the Automated Industry Trend Scraper & Outline Creator template is saved in your BrowserAct account.
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).
Configure Notification: Open the Send a message node (Slack) and select the channel where you want to receive alerts.
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
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").
Change the Output Destination: Replace the Google Docs nodes with Notion or Airtable nodes if you prefer a database format over a document.
Add Email Delivery: Add a Gmail or Outlook node at the end to email the finished Google Doc link directly to stakeholders.
