Turn your company documents into a smart assistant. This RAG (Retrieval-Augmented Generation) workflow indexes PDFs, Word files, and other documents from Google Drive into a Pinecone vector database. With Gemini AI, you can ask questions in plain language and get instant answers about HR policies, procedures, or any other company information. Document updates are detected automatically.
Important WarningThis is a sample workflow template and is not guaranteed to work in every setup. You may need to adapt it to your own needs. To use this template, you need n8n version 1.49.0 or higher.
