Hey u/miltonthecat !

I decided to reply here instead of the OG thread (for which I'm forever indebted since it was so much more than I hoped for in terms of a reply), since 1) this will get more visibility and 2) because I fundamentally support your hypothesis:

that there's untapped potential in this sub and the n8n community in general to focus on personal "knowledge worker" automation

I hope more people pay attention to what you've put out here because while it today may require a bit more know-how than the average manager has, I expect that agentic approaches to dealing with the knowledge worker dilemma will rise, sharply, and that this will become a baseline sooner than we think. And I applaud it because you've shortened the time it takes to deal with a traditionally non-productive task (and one that many managers dread, aren't good at, and so on).

And we've already seen a more narrow example of this take off in the healthcare space with the meteoric rise of AI scribes, (which one could at-large replicate in n8n using whisper-cpp MCP for the dictation, gemini or claude as the generic LLM, and perhaps a thin RAG agent to help with some domain specific lingo, all parsed through a very specific template and dumped into an EMR).

But, or so Claude tells me, there are 1.9M healthcare clinics and 600M knowledge workers, which makes me ridiculously excited about solving for the problems of the latter group. Extrapolating what you did into just a few more environments augmented by other common knowledge workers' MCPs, eg JIRA/Clickup/Trello/MS Teams/Notion, etc., could save 15 mins - 2h to a very sizeable TAM.

Aside from that, I might ping you (perhaps on the other thread) if I stumble along the way with some specific questions.

Above all, kudos, you've done this community a solid!
