Template notes
The "WhatsApp Productivity Assistant with Memory and AI Imaging" is a comprehensive n8n workflow that transforms your WhatsApp into a powerful, multi-talented AI assistant. It's designed to handle a wide range of tasks by understanding user messages, analyzing images, and connecting to various external tools and services. The assistant can hold natural conversations, remember past interactions using a MongoDB vector store (RAG), and decide which tool is best suited for a user's request. Whether you need to check your schedule, research a topic, get the latest news, create an image, or even analyze a picture you send, this workflow orchestrates it all seamlessly through a single WhatsApp chat interface.
The workflow is structured into several interconnected components:
WhatsApp Trigger & Incoming Message Processing: This is the entry point, starting when a message (text or image) is received via WhatsApp. A Route Message by Type (Image/Text) node then intelligently routes the message based on its content type. A Typing.... node sends a typing indicator to the user for a better experience. If an image is received, it's downloaded, processed via an HTTP Request, and analyzed by the Analyze image node. The Code1 node then standardizes both text and image analysis output into a single, unified input for the main AI agent. Core AI Agent: This is the brain of the operation. The AI Agent1 node receives the user's input, maintains short-term conversational memory using Simple Memory, and uses a powerful language model (gpt-oss-120b2 or gpt-oss-120b1) to decide which tool or sub-agent to use. It orchestrates all the other agents and tools. Productivity Tools Agent: This group of nodes connects the assistant to your personal productivity suite. It includes sub-agents and tools for managing Google Calendar, Google Tasks, and Gmail, allowing you to schedule events, manage to-dos, and read emails. It leverages a language model (gpt-4.1-mini or gemini-2.5-flash) for understanding and executing commands within these tools. Research Tool Agent: This agent handles all research-related queries. It has access to multiple search tools (Brave Web Search, Brave News Search, Wikipedia, Tavily, and a custom perprlexcia search) to find the most accurate and up-to-date information from the web. It uses a language model (gpt-oss-120b or gpt-4.1-nanoChat Model1) for reasoning. Long-Term Memory Webhook: A dedicated sub-workflow (Webhook2) that processes conversation history, extracts key information using Extract Memory Info, and stores it in a MongoDB Atlas Vector Store for long-term memory. This allows the AI agent to remember past preferences and facts. Image Generation Webhook:  A specialized sub-workflow (Webhook3) triggered when a user asks to create an image. It uses a dedicated AI Agent with MongoDB Atlas Vector Store1 for contextual image prompt generation, Clean Prompt Text1 to refine the prompt, an HTTP Request to an external image generation API (e.g., Together.xyz), and then converts and sends the generated image back to the user via WhatsApp.
