How it runs

  3. Clean PDF Links (Information Extractor): extracts structured fields from text with AI, with model: OpenRouter Chat Model
  4. Split Out: splits a list into separate items
  5. Download PDF (HTTP Request): calls an HTTP API
  6. Convert PDF to Base64 String (Extract from File): extracts data from a file (binary to propery)
  7. Analyze Bill with Gemini (HTTP Request): calls an HTTP API (POST)
  8. Set Analysis (Edit Fields (Set)): sets 1 field: analysis
