Real-time X post monitoring & auto-categorization with Airtop
Monitor X for Relevant Posts
Use Case
This automation monitors X (formerly Twitter) search pages in real time and extracts high-signal posts that match your categories of interest. It’s ideal for community engagement, lead discovery, thought leadership tracking, or competitive analysis.
What This Automation Does
Given a search URL and a list of categories, it:
- Logs into X using Airtop
- Opens the specified search URL
- Scrolls through the results
- Extracts up to 10 valid, English-language posts
- Filters and classifies each post by category (or marks as
[NA]if unrelated) - Returns the structured results as JSON
Input parameters:
- airtop_profile — An Airtop browser profile authenticated on X
- x_url — X search URL (e.g.,
https://x.com/search?q=ai agents&f=live) - relevant_categories — Text-based list of categories to classify posts (e.g., "Web automation use cases", "Thought leadership")
Output: A JSON array of posts, each with:
writertimetexturlcategory
How It Works
- Trigger: This workflow is triggered by another workflow (e.g., a community engagement pipeline).
- Input Setup: Accepts the Airtop profile, search URL, and categories to use for classification.
- Session: Starts a browser session using the Airtop profile.
- Window Navigation: Opens the provided X search URL.
- Extraction: Scrapes up to 10 posts with
/status/in the URL and text in English. - Classification: Each post is labeled with a category if relevant, or
[NA]otherwise. - Filtering: Discards
[NA]posts. - Output: Returns the list of classified posts.
Setup Requirements
- Airtop profile with an active X login.
- Airtop API key connected in n8n.
- List of category definitions to guide post classification (used in prompt).
Next Steps
- Feed into Engagement Workflows: Pass the results to workflows that reply, retweet, or track posts.
- Use in Slack Alerts: Push classified posts into Slack channels for review and reaction.
- Customize Classifier: Refine the categorization logic to include sentiment or company mentions.

Real-Time X-Post Monitoring & Auto-Categorization with Airtop
This n8n workflow automates the process of monitoring and categorizing posts using Airtop. It's designed to process incoming data, apply custom logic for categorization, and then interact with the Airtop platform.
What it does
This workflow performs the following key steps:
- Receives Data: It's triggered when executed by another workflow, suggesting it's part of a larger automation system.
- Edits Fields: The "Edit Fields (Set)" node allows for initial data transformation or setting default values.
- Applies Custom Logic: The "Code" node executes custom JavaScript, enabling flexible data manipulation and business logic application, likely for categorization or data preparation.
- Filters Data: The "Filter" node conditionally processes items based on specified criteria, allowing for branching or selective actions.
- Interacts with Airtop: The "Airtop" node is used to perform actions within the Airtop platform, such as creating, updating, or retrieving data, likely related to post monitoring and categorization.
Prerequisites/Requirements
To use this workflow, you will need:
- n8n Instance: A running instance of n8n.
- Airtop Account: Access to an Airtop account and the necessary API credentials configured in n8n.
Setup/Usage
- Import the workflow: Import the provided JSON into your n8n instance.
- Configure Credentials:
- Set up your Airtop credentials within n8n.
- Customize Nodes:
- Edit Fields (Set): Adjust the fields and values as needed for your specific data.
- Code: Modify the JavaScript code to implement your desired categorization logic or data processing.
- Filter: Define the conditions for filtering items based on your requirements.
- Airtop: Configure the Airtop node to perform the specific operations (e.g., create post, update category) relevant to your use case.
- Connect to a Trigger Workflow: As this workflow starts with an "Execute Workflow Trigger" node, it's designed to be called from another n8n workflow. Ensure you have a parent workflow that triggers this one with the appropriate data.
- Activate the Workflow: Once configured, activate the workflow to start processing data.

Ai website scraper & company intelligence
AI Website Scraper & Company Intelligence Description This workflow automates the process of transforming any website URL into a structured, intelligent company profile. It's triggered by a form, allowing a user to submit a website and choose between a "basic" or "deep" scrape. The workflow extracts key information (mission, services, contacts, SEO keywords), stores it in a structured Supabase database, and archives a full JSON backup to Google Drive. It also features a secondary AI agent that automatically finds and saves competitors for each company, building a rich, interconnected database of company intelligence. --- Quick Implementation Steps Import the Workflow: Import the provided JSON file into your n8n instance. Install Custom Community Node: You must install the community node from: https://www.npmjs.com/package/n8n-nodes-crawl-and-scrape FIRECRAWL N8N Documentation https://docs.firecrawl.dev/developer-guides/workflow-automation/n8n Install Additional Nodes: n8n-nodes-crawl-and-scrape and n8n-nodes-mcp fire crawl mcp . Set up Credentials: Create credentials in n8n for FIRE CRAWL API,Supabase, Mistral AI, and Google Drive. Configure API Key (CRITICAL): Open the Web Search tool node. Go to Parameters → Headers and replace the hardcoded Tavily AI API key with your own. Configure Supabase Nodes: Assign your Supabase credential to all Supabase nodes. Ensure table names (e.g., companies, competitors) match your schema. Configure Google Drive Nodes: Assign your Google Drive credential to the Google Drive2 and save to Google Drive1 nodes. Select the correct Folder ID. Activate Workflow: Turn on the workflow and open the Webhook URL in the “On form submission” node to access the form. --- What It Does Form Trigger Captures user input: “Website URL” and “Scraping Type” (basic or deep). Scraping Router A Switch node routes the flow: Deep Scraping → AI-based MCP Firecrawler agent. Basic Scraping → Crawlee node. Deep Scraping (Firecrawl AI Agent) Uses Firecrawl and Tavily Web Search. Extracts a detailed JSON profile: mission, services, contacts, SEO keywords, etc. Basic Scraping (Crawlee) Uses Crawl and Scrape node to collect raw text. A Mistral-based AI extractor structures the data into JSON. Data Storage Stores structured data in Supabase tables (companies, company_basicprofiles). Archives a full JSON backup to Google Drive. Automated Competitor Analysis Runs after a deep scrape. Uses Tavily web search to find competitors (e.g., from Crunchbase). Saves competitor data to Supabase, linked by company_id. --- Who's It For Sales & Marketing Teams: Enrich leads with deep company info. Market Researchers: Build structured, searchable company databases. B2B Data Providers: Automate company intelligence collection. Developers: Use as a base for RAG or enrichment pipelines. --- Requirements n8n instance (self-hosted or cloud) Supabase Account: With tables like companies, competitors, social_links, etc. Mistral AI API Key Google Drive Credentials Tavily AI API Key (Optional) Custom Nodes: n8n-nodes-crawl-and-scrape --- How It Works Flow Summary Form Trigger: Captures “Website URL” and “Scraping Type”. Switch Node: deep → MCP Firecrawler (AI Agent). basic → Crawl and Scrape node. Scraping & Extraction: Deep path: Firecrawler → JSON structure. Basic path: Crawlee → Mistral extractor → JSON. Storage: Save JSON to Supabase. Archive in Google Drive. Competitor Analysis (Deep Only): Finds competitors via Tavily. Saves to Supabase competitors table. End: Finishes with a No Operation node. --- How To Set Up Import workflow JSON. Install community nodes (especially n8n-nodes-crawl-and-scrape from npm). Configure credentials (Supabase, Mistral AI, Google Drive). Add your Tavily API key. Connect Supabase and Drive nodes properly. Fix disconnected “basic” path if needed. Activate workflow. Test via the webhook form URL. --- How To Customize Change LLMs: Swap Mistral for OpenAI or Claude. Edit Scraper Prompts: Modify system prompts in AI agent nodes. Change Extraction Schema: Update JSON Schema in extractor nodes. Fix Relational Tables: Add Items node before Supabase inserts for arrays (social links, keywords). Enhance Automation: Add email/slack notifications, or replace form trigger with a Google Sheets trigger. --- Add-ons Automated Trigger: Run on new sheet rows. Notifications: Email or Slack alerts after completion. RAG Integration: Use the Supabase database as a chatbot knowledge source. --- Use Case Examples Sales Lead Enrichment: Instantly get company + competitor data from a URL. Market Research: Collect and compare companies in a niche. B2B Database Creation: Build a proprietary company dataset. --- WORKFLOW IMAGE --- Troubleshooting Guide | Issue | Possible Cause | Solution | |-------|----------------|-----------| | Form Trigger 404 | Workflow not active | Activate the workflow | | Web Search Tool fails | Missing Tavily API key | Replace the placeholder key | | FIRECRAWLER / find competitor fails | Missing MCP node | Install n8n-nodes-mcp | | Basic scrape does nothing | Switch node path disconnected | Reconnect “basic” output | | Supabase node error | Wrong table/column names | Match schema exactly | --- Need Help or More Workflows?
