The AI Workflow I Charged Four Figures For — Now Anyone Can Build It for $20/Month

About six months ago, I built an AI workflow in n8n and charged low four figures. Now, pretty much anyone can build a simplified version of it with Cowork for $20/month.

It's a pretty compelling workflow that gives targeted feedback on each meeting:

  • After a meeting, pull the meeting transcript
  • Check if the attendee matches on a google sheet
  • If a match, run the transcript through a refined prompt to pull out specific feedback from the meeting
  • Create an email draft of that feedback for review and quick sending
  • Run the transcript through ANOTHER "coaching" prompt to provide targeted feedback on how the meeting host did on the things they cared about so they can work on getting better

Late last year that was an n8n workflow that took me hours to put together and get working, even with Claude code and the n8n mcp.

Now? You can get to something 80% as good in 10 minutes. You tell Cowork what to look for and what feedback to give. Connect your calendar, email, and transcripts, and it just runs on a schedule.

It's not as precise as n8n, but for most people I think a simplified version will be more than enough to be compelling. It's also pretty easy to set up, tweak, and maintain in a way n8n is not for a lot of folks.

Want to learn how to do this and more? Sign up for my next GSD with Claude Cowork workshop.

We'll cover more examples and get hands on automating the grunt work that eats your week and use agents to get things done that weren't feasible to hire someone to do.

I've explored the rough edges of working with agents and I can help you get to the good stuff faster.
