Overview

Unlock Actionable Community Insights with this AI Agent

This powerful AI Agent is designed to automatically gather, analyze, and report on the n8n community's top creators and their impactful workflows. It taps into data from the n8n community leaderboard on GitHub, processes it, and then employs Large Language Models (LLMs) like OpenAI's GPT-4o-mini and Google Gemini to generate insightful, structured reports. This agent essentially acts as your automated community analyst, highlighting key trends, popular solutions, and influential contributors within the n8n ecosystem.

Key Features & Abilities

  • Automated Data Sourcing: Fetches the latest creator and workflow statistics directly from the n8n community leaderboard GitHub repository.
  • Data Processing & Ranking: Parses, sorts, and filters data to identify top-performing creators and workflows based on metrics like weekly/monthly insertions and visitors.
  • AI-Powered Report Generation: Leverages an n8n Langchain Agent with OpenAI (GPT-4o-mini) to create comprehensive Markdown reports. The agent is specifically prompted to analyze contributor impact and workflow details.
  • AI-Driven Summarization: Uses Google Gemini to generate concise summaries, like a 'Top 10 Workflows' list, from the main report.
  • Multi-Channel Distribution: Delivers reports in various formats (Markdown, HTML for email) and through multiple channels: local file saving, Google Drive uploads, Gmail, and Telegram notifications.
  • Scheduled & Triggerable: Can be run on a daily schedule or triggered on-demand by other workflows, ensuring timely insights.
  • Customizable Reporting: The depth and focus of the AI-generated reports can be fine-tuned by adjusting the system prompts within the Langchain Agent node.
  • Insightful Community Analysis: Helps you understand what makes certain workflows popular, identify emerging trends, and recognize key community contributors.

Use Cases

  • For n8n Solution Providers & Consultants: Automatically track top-performing community workflows to identify new service opportunities, understand market needs, or find inspiration for client solutions.
  • For SaaS Companies with n8n Integrations: Monitor how your platform is being used in popular n8n workflows, identify key community advocates, and gather insights for improving your n8n connector or API.
  • For Community Managers & Developer Advocates: Effortlessly generate regular reports on community activity, highlight top contributors, and showcase the most impactful workflows to foster engagement and growth.
  • For Individual n8n Creators & Solopreneurs: Stay updated on what's trending in the n8n community, learn from successful workflows, and identify potential collaboration opportunities.
