October 16, 2025

This workflow automates the process of turning source documents (PDF, DOCX, or TXT) into structured study and reference materials using AI. By watching a designated folder, it automatically imports new files, extracts content, summarizes key insights, and generates multiple types of notes such as study guides, timelines, and briefing documents.

It leverages Mistral Cloud LLMs, vector storage (Qdrant), and retrieval-augmented generation (RAG) to deliver accurate, context-rich outputs. Finally, the generated notes are exported to your filesystem for immediate use.

Perfect for students, researchers, and professionals who want to save time while creating learning aids, reports, or knowledge summaries.
