People Management

Smart HR chatbot answers PTO questions.

This one comes from u/digit540 and it's a super clean way to handle employee PTO queries without touching spreadsheets or dashboards.

Instead of snooping around trying to figure out "Who's on PTO this week?" or "Why do requests keep getting declined?", this workflow lets you ask a chatbot and get answers instantly.

Cost breakdown: Under $0.02 per query in AI processing + free Google Sheets = no more $500/month HR dashboard subscriptions and way faster answers.

Content Creation

Chat with any YouTuber's entire knowledge.

This one comes from Shub Noor and it's an incredibly smart way to turn any YouTube channel into a personal AI mentor you can actually talk to.

Instead of rewatching hours of videos to find specific advice, use a chatbot that mimics the creator – powered by all the content on their YouTube channel.

Cost breakdown: About $10 in Apify scraping costs for 1,000+ videos + free Supabase tier + OpenAI embeddings = your own personal YouTube mentor without the monthly coaching fees.

Content Creation

AI newsletter that writes itself.

This one comes from Lucas Walter and it's an insanely comprehensive system that scrapes 100+ AI stories daily, picks the best ones, and writes an entire newsletter automatically.

If you’ve got the skills, you can modify this for any niche – and start growing a newsletter today.

Here are the free workflow links:

• AI News Story / Data Ingestion Workflow

• Firecrawl Scrape Url Sub-Workflow

• AI Newsletter Generator Workflow

Cost breakdown: About $2/day in API calls (Firecrawl + OpenAI) + basic S3 storage = a fully automated newsletter that's grown to thousands of subscribers without touching the keyboard.

That’s it for this week.

Keep showing up, cheering each other on — and as always, keep automating.
