## Questions

What does it need to run?

An n8n account, plus your own Airtable, Gmail, Google Drive, Google Sheets, HubSpot and Notion accounts, and a key for OpenRouter and a local model. You connect your own accounts after importing it; none are included.

What starts it?

It starts on someone submitting a form.

Does it use AI?

Yes. It calls OpenRouter and a local model. Model calls are billed by the provider, not by n8n.

How long does it take to set up?

Take your time. At 59 steps it is large: read it before trusting it with anything live.

How do I import it?

Copy the workflow, open a new workflow in n8n and paste. The steps appear on the canvas, ready for your own accounts.

**Before you run it**

Nothing here has been tested by us. It is somebody's working automation, read and described from its own steps. Treat the connections it wants as a list of accounts it will touch, and read the 59 steps before you point it at anything that matters.
