I recently developed AntiCollab, an AI-powered system designed to streamline the management of sponsorship emails for creators and founders. As inbox volumes increase, sponsorship requests often become difficult to identify and manage. This solution automates the classification and organization of incoming emails, significantly reducing manual effort while improving visibility and response efficiency. The system enables automated detection of sponsorship-related emails, structured data storage with real-time synchronization, and a centralized dashboard featuring message previews, one-click archive and unarchive functionality, and light and dark mode support. It is built using Gmail integration, n8n for workflow orchestration, OpenAI for intent-based classification, and Supabase for data storage, alongside a custom frontend developed with Next.js, TypeScript, and Tailwind CSS. Claude AI was utilized to assist with end-to-end UI/UX development. Planned enhancements include the integration of Retrieval-Augmented Generation (RAG) to leverage historical collaboration data and brand insights, enabling AI-assisted evaluation of partnership fit and response strategy. This project is shared as part of building in public, and feedback or discussion is welcome. 🎥 Product Walkthrough:https://www.loom.com/share/70ea25f4b2cb4af385445fe68658fa12

Welcome. This is the starting point for learning how to actually use AI and automation in real-world scenarios without overcomplicating it. 🛑 Start by watching the quick video attached It’ll show you how to navigate the community and find workflows, templates, prompts, and strategy without getting lost. 🎯 What This Community Is For The goal here is simple: - Learn how AI automation actually works - See how workflows are built and used in practice - Apply AI to content, operations, and business systems - Move from guessing to data-driven execution You do not need a technical background to get value here. 📂 How to Use the Community - Browse the Classroom for workflows, guides, and breakdowns - Use the search bar to quickly find what you need - For templates and downloads, use Skool on desktop 💬 Introduce Yourself Drop a comment below and let me know: - What you’re working on - Your experience level with AI - What workflows or AI agents you want to see next I use community feedback to decide what I build and share next. 🌐 Follow & Connect If you want to see how I apply this stuff daily, here’s where I’m most active: 🌍 Website https://ccstrategic.io/ 📺 YouTube https://www.youtube.com/@charlieautomates 📸 Instagram https://www.instagram.com/charlieautomates/ 💼 LinkedIn https://www.linkedin.com/in/charlieautomates/

Quick story before we dive in... In 2017, I was living on less than $400 a month. No exaggeration. Rock bottom. But I kept stacking skills... WordPress, copywriting, operations, automation. Every failure deposited something. Fast forward: I've scaled agencies from $10k to $100k/month. I've been inside the biggest GoHighLevel accounts in the world at Extendly. I've seen exactly what works and what doesn't. Now? I build AI systems that actually work in production. Not toys. Not prototypes. Real systems that free you up for what actually matters. That's what this community is about. Three paths here: 1. Learn it yourself (we've got trainings) 2. Have us build it for you 3. You're an agency: get our systems to scale your fulfillment My philosophy? Strategic laziness. If you shouldn't be doing it, automate it. 👇 Drop an intro below: - What's your business? - What brought you here? - What's the ONE thing you'd automate if you could?

Most n8n workflows are more than just automations—they already contain the core logic of a SaaS product. When you combine n8n’s orchestration power with Claude Code, you can transform internal workflows into scalable, user-facing AI products without heavy backend engineering. Claude Code helps convert workflows into clean APIs, handle validation and edge cases, and structure logic for multiple users, while n8n continues to manage integrations and execution. The real shift isn’t technical—it’s moving from “this saves me time” to “this delivers ongoing value others will pay for.” Key points to think about: - Same workflow, different packaging = automation → SaaS - n8n handles logic, tools, and integrations - Claude Code bridges workflows to production-ready services - Add users, storage, and access control to unlock monetization - The hardest part isn’t building—it’s identifying who will pay Curious to hear: which n8n workflow would you turn into a product? 👇
