Description

Client Onboarding Automation: Google Forms → GPT-4o → ClickUp & Gmail

Who is this for?

Consultants, agencies, freelancers, and SaaS teams handling client onboarding who want automated workspaces + AI task lists without manual setup.

What problem is this workflow solving?
Onboarding chaos wastes hours:

Manual folder/task creation per client

Inconsistent project scopes and timelines

Forgotten welcome emails and links

No standardized AI-scoped task lists

This workflow auto-creates everything from intake form to production-ready ClickUp boards.

What this workflow does:
Trigger: Google Forms submission + proposal PDF
AI Analysis: GPT-4o extracts scope → generates 20-30 tasks
Google Drive: Client folder creation
ClickUp: Folder + lists + detailed tasks with assignees/dues
Gmail: Personalized welcome with all links
Bonus: Audit trail in Sheets for tracking

Setup (5 minutes)

Google Forms: Intake + PDF upload

OpenAI: API key (GPT-4o-mini)

ClickUp: API + Team/Space IDs

Google Drive: OAuth2 + parent folder

Gmail: OAuth2 credentials
Fully configurable via env vars—no hardcoded IDs.

How to customize
