Hello there!! 👋
Context building 🏔
🧱 Project: Build an AI Chatbot
⏲️ Estimated time: 30 mins
🛠️ Tools: Zapier
Today, you'll make an AI powered chatbot that helps you brainstorm different automations you can apply to your work based on the tools you use.
An AI-powered chatbot for brainstorming automations is a digital assistant that taps into machine learning to suggest different workflow improvements based on the tools you’re currently using. It’s like having a virtual brainstorming partner that instantly knows the capabilities of your tech stack.
Here's why building this chatbot is super handy: the traditional way of brainstorming automations often requires hours of research, understanding integrations, and sometimes even hiring a consultant. This process can be tedious, time-consuming, and expensive for creators like you. With our AI-powered chatbot, you can quickly get suggestions tailored to your tech stack, helping you automate tasks faster and more efficiently.
🔥 In this lesson you’ll learn…
- The basics of Zapier and Chat-GPT
- How to build an AI-powered chatbot for brainstorming automations
- Integrating Chat-GPT with Zapier using the new Interfaces feature
Let's Prep 🥗

- Defining Your Automation Needs
In this phase, we're laying the foundation. Before the chatbot can suggest automations, it needs to know what tools you use and what tasks you perform with them. Think of this as teaching the bot about your workspace.
- Step 1: List down the apps and tools you regularly use in your work. (e.g., Google Sheets, Slack, Trello).
- Step 2: For each tool, note the primary tasks you perform. (e.g., For Google Sheets - "Store sales data").
- Step 3: Prioritize the tasks based on frequency and importance.

Reflect 🤔
Think about the automations that the AI-powered chatbot recommended based on your current tech stack and workflow. Which specific automation ideas stood out to you as potentially valuable or time-saving? Reflect on how implementing these automations could enhance your work efficiency and productivity. Are there any potential challenges or considerations you foresee in implementing these suggested automations, and how might you address them?
