Automate Weekly Tech Research with Perplexity AI, Notion & Gmail

This n8n workflow streamlines weekly technology research and reporting. Triggered every Monday at 9 AM by a Schedule Trigger node, it activates an AI agent configured with a custom system prompt for web monitoring and research tasks. The agent leverages a powerful language model like DeepSeek from Perplexity via OpenRouter to generate relevant insights and summaries on specified tech topics.

The generated content is then seamlessly stored and updated in a connected Notion database, ensuring a centralized, organized repository of research findings that can be easily queried or shared. Finally, a Gmail node dispatches a polished summary report to predefined recipients, complete with the latest insights timestamped to the current date.

Benefits include significant time savings on manual research, consistent high-quality AI-driven reports, and effortless integration across tools. Ideal use cases: tech teams tracking industry trends, market analysts monitoring competitors, content creators automating briefings, or any business needing automated weekly intelligence without constant oversight. Customizable for prompts, schedules, databases, and recipients.
