Description

Who’s it for

This template is built for founders, sales teams, agencies, consultants, and growth operators who want a fully automated way to discover high-intent companies showing buying signals such as funding, hiring, launches, or expansion — without manual research.

It’s ideal for outbound sales, partnership scouting, market intelligence, and lead generation.

What it does / How it works

This workflow automates daily business signal monitoring and opportunity detection.

It runs on a daily schedule and collects data from multiple sources:

• LinkedIn
• X
• Product Hunt
• CrunchBase
• Google News

All incoming data is:

• Merged and normalized into a single unified feed
• Cleaned and deduplicated
• Passed to an AI agent powered by Google Gemini

The AI agent:

• Filters only relevant events (Funding, Launch, Expansion, Hiring)
• Generates a concise summary
• Explains why the event represents a business opportunity

Based on the AI classification:

• Relevant opportunities continue through the workflow
• Irrelevant noise is automatically discarded

For each qualified opportunity:

• Company/contact data is enriched via an external API
• The opportunity is saved to Google Sheets
• A real-time alert is sent via Telegram

All logic runs automatically end-to-end.

Requirements

• Google News (NewsAPI) API key
• Twitter/X API credentials
• Product Hunt API credentials
• Crunchbase RSS feed access
• Google Sheets OAuth2 credentials
• Telegram Bot credentials
• Google Gemini (PaLM) API credentials
• (Optional) Contact enrichment API

How to set up

1. Import the workflow into n8n.
2. Connect all required credentials:
   • Google Gemini
   • Google Sheets
   • Telegram
   • External APIs (News, X, Product Hunt)
3. Replace placeholders:
   • Google Sheet ID and range
   • Telegram Chat ID
   • Enrichment API URL (if used)
4. Adjust search queries if needed.
5. Run the workflow once manually to test.
6. Enable the Daily Trigger to activate automation.

How to customize the workflow

• Modify AI prompts to refine opportunity criteria
• Add new data sources (LinkedIn, Reddit, Hacker News)
• Change schedule frequency (hourly, weekly)
• Log opportunities into a CRM instead of Sheets
• Add email or Slack alerts
• Expand enrichment logic for deeper company insights

This workflow transforms scattered startup news into a clean, daily stream of actionable business opportunities — fully automated.
