Issue #42: ☀️ Elliot’s WhatsApp Workflow Converts Leads While You Sleep

Workflow of the Week 🚀

Who Built It: Elliot

What It Does: Elliot’s n8n + Voiceflow workflow connects WhatsApp Business Cloud API with Voiceflow’s conversational AI engine to create an intelligent, always-on chatbot. This agent can qualify leads, answer FAQs, and route potential customers — all through WhatsApp.

The setup uses just three nodes, keeping things simple: one to receive WhatsApp messages, one to process them through Voiceflow, and one to send the AI’s response back to the user. The result is a minimal yet powerful automation that can replace manual DMs and basic support workflows.

Where to Find It: 👉 Access Elliot’s AI WhatsApp Chatbot Workflow

Why It’s Incredible: Elliot’s system shows the power of simplicity in AI automation. Instead of building everything in n8n, he lets Voiceflow handle the logic — from knowledge base responses to lead scoring — while n8n takes care of the messaging pipeline.

Key Advantages:

💬 Runs fully on WhatsApp — no website or dashboard needed.
🤖 Uses Voiceflow’s advanced agent routing and knowledge base.
🚀 Ultra-clean build (only 3 nodes) with easy API setup.
💡 Ideal for agencies building AI support or sales bots.
🧠 Maintains memory for each user via phone number.

📊 Difficulty Rating:
🌊🌊 (2/5 — beginner-friendly with Voiceflow and API setup guides)
