Auto-Classify and file the document with AI the Moment a new file lands in your intake folder and Post It to Slack
Every time a new file lands in your intake folder, this workflow hands it to OpenAI, which identifies the document type and files it in the right place. You get every document sorted the moment it arrives without lifting a finger.

Frequently asked questions
How do I import the workflow into n8n?
Download the JSON, then in n8n open a new workflow, choose ⋯ → Import from file, and select it. Every trigger, node and connection appears on the canvas; you just add your credentials and activate it.
How much does the AI part cost to run?
Pennies. Each run sends a small amount of text to the model, so most teams spend a few dollars a month even at hundreds of runs. You set the model and can cap volume in n8n, so costs never surprise you.
Can I trust the AI to get the filing right?
The prompt is tightly scoped to one job and you can add a human-approval step in n8n before anything is sent or published. Start with review-mode for a week, and once you trust the output, switch it to fully automatic.
