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 summary 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.
