Create Todoist Tasks from Telegram with AI (n8n Workflow)

Turn Telegram messages into Todoist tasks—powered by AI

This n8n workflow lets you create Todoist tasks directly from Telegram. Just send a voice or text message to your Telegram bot, and the workflow uses AI to transform what you say into actionable Todoist entries—so you capture tasks on the go without manual typing.

What this workflow does

Designed for effortless task management, this automation replaces the repetitive step of entering tasks into Todoist by hand:

1. Send a message (text or voice) to your Telegram bot describing what you need to do.
2. AI analysis: an LLM-based AI intelligently interprets your message and breaks it down into manageable sub-tasks.
3. Create tasks in Todoist: the workflow organizes the results and saves them as tasks in your Todoist account.

Use cases

• Busy professionals capturing action items during meetings—send a quick voice note and get Todoist tasks instantly.
• Students turning assignment updates into structured sub-tasks you can review later in Todoist.
• Anyone using AI for productivity who wants hands-free capture from mobile while keeping everything in Todoist.

Technical details

Built as an n8n automation workflow using these components:

• Telegram Trigger to start the workflow from incoming voice/text messages
• Telegram node for bot-based interaction
• AI-driven task breakdown (LLM) to analyze the message and structure tasks
• Todoist node to create the resulting tasks in your Todoist account
