What it does
How it works - Submit one or more Apple Podcast episode URLs via the built-in n8n form - The workflow queries the iTunes API to retrieve each podcast's public RSS feed, then parses the XML to locate the matching episode's MP3 file - ElevenLabs Scribe transcribes the full audio by passing the MP3 URL directly - no file download needed - GPT-5-MINI generates a structured summary for each episode: title, key points, useful info, and a bottom line - All summaries are combined into a formatted HTML email and delivered to your inbox Set up steps - Setup takes about 5 minutes - Connect three credentials: ElevenLabs (HTTP Header Auth with your API key), OpenAI API, and Gmail OAuth2 - Update the recipient email address in the "Send Summary Email" node - Detailed instructions are in the sticky notes inside the workflow
