Automated AI News Digest in Telegram with Perplexity Sonar Pro

Get a daily AI news digest in Telegram—fully automated with Perplexity Sonar Pro

This ready-to-deploy n8n automation workflow automatically collects, filters, formats, and delivers a high-signal AI industry news digest directly to your Telegram group or channel—every morning at 10AM, with zero manual effort.

What this workflow does

• Fetches AI news from the last 24 hours using Perplexity AI (via Perplexity Sonar Pro).
• Filters for relevance so you only receive meaningful updates from trusted sources (e.g., OpenAI, DeepMind, HuggingFace, MIT Tech Review).
• Removes duplicates by checking previously posted items in a Google Sheets log archive.
• Formats results with an AI Formatter Agent that cleans the raw feed, adds summaries, and outputs a human-friendly, polished digest.
• Sends the final digest to Telegram so your team can read it immediately.
• Runs on a scheduled cadence (preconfigured for daily use, adjustable if needed).

Use cases

• SaaS operators who need a consistent AI news update workflow for product and engineering planning.
• n8n users and automation engineers who want a practical example of combining Schedule Trigger, LLM processing, and Telegram delivery.
• AI teams that want fresh daily summaries without searching and reposting links manually.
