Case Study

AI Reply Qualifier

An n8n workflow that catches every cold-email reply from Instantly, validates it, classifies sentiment with an LLM, then auto-routes hot leads into GoHighLevel as opportunities — neutrals to nurture, opt-outs logged. Fully hands-off.

01Problem

Cold-email replies pile up in the sending tool. Hot leads wait until someone reads them, and opt-out requests get missed, which is a compliance risk.

02Solution

An n8n workflow catches every reply from Instantly, validates it, classifies the sentiment with an LLM, sends hot leads to GoHighLevel as opportunities, moves neutrals to nurture, and logs opt-outs.
