Automate UX research planning with Gemini AI, Google Docs, and human feedback
This workflow automates the entire **UX research planning process** — from gathering context to delivering a ready-to-share Google Doc report. Built for UX researchers and designers, it combines **AI-powered generation** with **human feedback loops** to make research planning faster, smarter, and more collaborative. ### 🧠 What it does * **Collects context** through an online form (organization, product, and research goals) * **Generates research questions** automatically using an AI Agent * **Sends approval emails** to the researcher or designer for review and feedback * **Refines and rewrites** questions based on user input * **Recommends suitable research methods** for each question, with clear rationales * **Formats the content** into a structured, professional HTML report * **Creates and updates a Google Doc** with the final approved research plan ### 🎯 Who it’s for Perfect for **UX teams, design researchers, and product designers** who want to streamline their workflow without losing human oversight. Whether you’re preparing a usability study or strategic research plan, this automation helps you focus on insight — not administration. **Result:** a fully-approved, polished UX Research Plan — ready for collaboration and presentation.
Organizing UI toolbar icons: Apple HIG standards and Gemini AI
## Overview When designing user interfaces, toolbar icons often get overlooked, even though their placement and grouping dramatically impact usability and user flow. This workflow leverages **Gemini AI** to automatically analyze UI screens, classify toolbar icons based on **Apple’s Human Interface Guidelines (HIG)**, and suggest optimal placements. By combining AI analysis with structured placement logic, this workflow helps designers build more consistent, efficient, and user-friendly interfaces—without spending hours manually arranging icons. --- ## 🚀 Features * **AI Classification**: Uses Gemini AI to analyze screenshots and classify icons into roles like `.primaryAction`, `.navigation`, `.confirmationAction`, and more. * **HIG-Based Placement**: Automatically assigns icons to the correct toolbar areas—Leading (Left), Trailing (Right), Center, Bottom, or System-decided. * **Usage-Aware Reordering**: Reorders icons based on frequency of use so the most relevant actions appear where users expect them. * **JSON Output**: Delivers structured results for seamless integration into design tools or documentation. --- ## 🔧 Setup Instructions 1. **Install the Workflow**: Import the workflow into your n8n instance. 2. **Configure Input**: * Upload a **screenshot** of your UI. * Upload a **set of icons** you want to classify and place. 3. **Set Up Gemini AI Node**: * Add your Gemini AI API key in the node’s credentials. 4. **Run the Workflow**: Submit the inputs and let the AI classify and assign placements. 5. **Export Results**: Copy the JSON output or connect the workflow to your preferred design/documentation tools. --- ## ⚙️ How It Works 1. **Form Submission** – Capture screenshot + icons. 2. **Gemini AI Agent** – Interprets screen context and classifies each icon. 3. **Placement Logic** – Maps icons to the correct toolbar areas. 4. **Reordering** – Adjusts order based on relevance and HIG standards. 5. **Structured Output** – Produces clean JSON for further use. --- ## 🎨 Customization * **Change AI Prompts**: Modify the Gemini AI node prompts to reflect your app’s design language. * **Adjust Placement Rules**: Update logic to follow custom guidelines beyond Apple HIG. * **Integrate with Design Tools**: Send the JSON output directly to tools like Figma, Sketch, or internal systems. --- ## 💡 Why This Matters * **Consistency**: Ensures toolbar designs always follow Apple’s HIG. * **Efficiency**: Saves designers hours of manual icon placement. * **Scalability**: Works across multiple screens, flows, and apps. * **AI-Assisted Design**: Augments designer decisions with structured insights instead of replacing them.
