Original n8n.io sourceStreamline management decision-making by automatically evaluating high-priority tenders, generating AI-powered executive summaries, and routing them for approval inside Slack. π€π© This workflow pulls pending tenders from Airtable, uses GPT-4o-mini to evaluate urgency, business opportunity, and risk, and generates a structured summary with a Go/No-Go recommendation. Tenders that qualify are pushed to Slack with interactive approval buttons, and the final decision instantly updates Airtable and triggers a confirmation email to your bid team. Perfect for fast-moving procurement, bidding, and sales teams that require structured, high-quality tender assessments. πβ‘
