​Build Bots To Do Your Busywork

​In this 2-part workshop, we will build workflow automations and AI agents in n8n. It is recommended to attend Session 1 before Session 2, but it's not required.

​By the end of the workshop, you will build & deploy a useful AI agent and establish a solid foundation upon which to build more.

​No coding or technical skills necessary. We will learn some basic concepts and apply them directly to building automations from scratch.

​Why Automate?

​Automate busywork so you can focus on what matters most—whether that's growing your business, honing your craft, or spending more quality time with family and friends.

​We are in the early innings of a historic shift toward fully automated workflows and AI agent workforces. None of us are NPCs destined to spend hours mindlessly inputting data and moving it from one place to another.

​It's time to let the bots handle the busywork so we can spend more time on the things that bring us joy.

​What to Expect in this Workshop?

​Session 1

​Understand how modern apps talk to each other and create your first fully automated pipeline in a low-code tool called n8n. Connect APIs, transform data, and build workflows that move information between tools like Notion and Slack.

​Session 2

​Level up your automation with AI agents that can make decisions and take actions. Build an AI agent, give it tools, add memory, and evaluate it's performance.

​Why Learn From Me?

• ​10 yrs in the AEC tech industry — coordinating virtual models and building workflow automations

• ​2 months @ Fractal AI Agency — helping other founders automate their operations

​Why n8n?

​There are many many ways to automate workflows and build AI agents, but we will be using a tool called n8n for a few reasons:

• ​n8n is no-code/low-code which means it can be used by both technical and non technical people

• ​n8n combines visual workflow diagraming with inline code, so it is simple to use and flexible enough to build complex automations

• ​n8n abstracts some—but not all—of the important functionality of a good automation, making it an ideal tool for teaching concepts AND building automations

• ​n8n has recently exploded in popularity, so there is plenty of existing templates, documentation, tutorials, and app integrations
