Setup

  1. Download the JSON and import it into an isolated n8n instance. Leave the workflow inactive.
  2. Connect your own credentials through n8n’s credential store. Replace REPLACE_WITH_* values with your resource identifiers.
  3. Inspect API destinations, Code nodes, database queries, file paths, and outbound actions.
  4. Run with synthetic data and harmless destinations. Enable triggers only after checking the actual outputs.

Requirements

An n8n instance with the listed node types and compatible versions. Service-connected workflows may require accounts, credentials, or paid APIs.

  • openAiApi

Workflow notes

Let AI read the tech news for you

Let AI read the tech news for you

This workflow fetches news via RSS feeds from selected tech websites, stores them in a vector database and uses an AI agent to send you a weekly, personalized newsletter - keeping you informed without daily distractions.

How it works

How it works

  • A daily scheduled trigger fetches articles from multiple popular tech RSS feeds like Wired, TechCrunch, and The Verge.

  • Fetched articles are:

    • Normalized to extract titles, summaries, and publish dates.
    • Converted to vector embeddings via OpenAI and stored in memory for fast semantic querying.

  • A weekly scheduled trigger activates the AI summarization flow:

    • The AI is provided with your interests (e.g., AI, games, gadgets) and the desired number of items (e.g., 15).
    • It queries the vector store to retrieve relevant articles and summarizes the most newsworthy stories.
    • The summary is converted into a clean, email-friendly format and sent to your inbox.

How to use

  1. Connect your OpenAI and Gmail accounts to n8n.
  2. Customize the list of RSS feeds in the “Set Tech News RSS Feeds” node.
  3. Update your interests and number of desired news items in the “Your Topics of Interest” node.
  4. Activate the workflow and let the automation run on schedule.

Requirements

  • OpenAI credentials for embeddings and summarization
  • Gmail (or another email service) for sending the newsletter
💡 Customizing this workflow

💡 Customizing this workflow

  • Want to use different sources? Swap in your own RSS feeds, or use an API-based news aggregator.
  • Replace the in-memory vector store with Pinecone, Weaviate, or another persistent vector DB for longer-term storage.
  • Adjust the agent's summarization style to suit internal updates, industry-specific briefings, or even entertainment recaps. Here’s an additional bullet point to include under Customizing this workflow:
  • Prefer chat over email? Replace the email node with a Telegram bot to receive your personalized tech newsletter directly in a Telegram chat.
