Hey all! I'm moving most of my activity to my personal feed. Feel free to follow if you'd like.
I will keep this profile as a company page.
Hey, I've decided to reactivate this profile and make it a bit more personal. Definitely less software.
More of my hobbies, experiments, and nature.
I'll keep @workfloows purely as a company feed.
Finally, all assets for PDFs in one place 😮💨
When generating documents (invoices, certificates, reports, etc.), you may want to add a logo or other images to your PDFs.
The thing is, you usually need to host them externally, then do a bunch of copy-pasting across your code/layouts. It’s always been a pain, at least for me.
So in PDFGorilla, I integrated copilot with assets. Now you can keep both your assets and templates in one place (and even tag them directly from AI chat!).

Another SaaS for generating PDFs 🙄
I’ve been using a similar service for my automations for years. But every time I needed a new template, I had to bounce between ChatGPT/Claude and my code editor - manually applying changes and trying to get a good-looking layout.
I REALLY wanted an integrated copilot that builds those templates and applies changes instantly. And here it is.
1. AI copilot generates templates on the spot
2. Edit the code anytime (play with HTML, CSS and mock JSON data)
3. Template version history
4. Auto-generated code snippets
5. Instant preview as you build
6. Straightforward, easy-to-follow API
And yes - there’s a light mode too (the most important feature).
If that sounds useful, join the waitlist: pdfgorilla.io/
🔇 Demo with no sound
So I got a mysterious package recently at my office. I guess it's a little nudge to finally drop something new on YouTube 😅 Many thanks @n8n_io, appreciate it a lot!

If you can’t find it, build it 🏗️
Recently I started a few experiments in my family business to see how more general AI assistants could support the team in day-to-day work.
One of the key steps was connecting our CRM to an assistant. We use @Firmao_io - quite common among small companies in Poland, but almost absent in the AI/MCP ecosystem.
That means no mature MCPs and very limited API documentation. There is one existing integration, but it’s fairly constrained and didn’t really fit what I needed.
So I built one myself.
It’s not perfect and it doesn’t cover the full Firmao surface yet, but it already includes:
✅ 44 full-CRUD tools for key CRM domains
☁️ Easy deploy on @Cloudflare Workers
🤫 Covers endpoints that aren’t documented in the official API
And most importantly:
❤️ It’s free and open source (MIT)
Realistically, most people reading this won’t ever use this MCP - and that’s fine.
The point is simpler: if you notice a gap like this, build the missing piece and make the road a bit easier for whoever comes next.

How I use PostHog for my API analytics 📊
From day one of launching Workflows APIs, I knew I needed solid visibility into how users interact with the platform.
That’s why I integrated @posthog right away - to track everything that matters, like:
🌍 User origin
👆 Click patterns
🛠️ API usage
⏰ Frequency of user activity
✅❌ Success vs. error rates
This setup helps me understand what parts of the platform bring the most value - and react instantly when something breaks.
And it only takes a few lines of code to get all this insight.
Adding PostHog was easily one of the best technical decisions I made while building Workflows (it was an obvious one too).
How I monitor health of my API services with Cloudflare Workers 💊
I take the availability of my services seriously - it’s important for me to always have a clear overview of how each part of my platform performs over time.
To achieve this, I built a @Cloudflare Worker that automatically sends test requests to all my APIs and validates the returned data.
It’s configured to check:
1️⃣ Each service individually (e.g. /check/serp)
2️⃣ All services together (e.g. /check/all)
With this setup, I can:
1. Power a status page (in my case, with @BetterStackHQ)
2. Run diagnostics across the entire platform at any moment
3. Instantly see which components are unhealthy
This gives me a quick view of how every key part of the platform is performing:
🧭 Browser
🔍 SERP
🧠 AI engine
🧩 API router
💻 Frontend
I like how flexible Workers are for this - lightweight and fast. Perfect for self-monitoring distributed systems.
Building an n8n community node was honestly one of the most fun parts of creating my platform.
After using n8n for so long, it felt great to finally add something to the ecosystem.
I started with a declarative node and got it working in under 2 hours.
A few days later, I wanted a bit more flexibility, so I rewrote it in programmatic style - and that’s when everything really came together.

How to quickly find company lookalikes (live results with browser automation, no 3rd party databases)
1. Choose "Similar companies API" from Workfloows APIs
2. Enter the target company URL
3. Wait a few minutes
4. Get the the list of companies with applied similarity score
Available in two options:
🪶 Lite (quick research, sync endpoint)
🤿 Deep (more and better quality results, async endpoint)

It took me a while to modify the default component to display sample requests and responses from my APIs on the home page, but I like the final result.
Original component from @TailarkUI.
One of my videos just crossed 100K views on YouTube (which is quite a big number for my channel).
Fun fact: I've created many tutorials about:
- complex data scraping,
- building APIs,
- generating PDFs,
- advanced AI flows.
Yet, my most viewed video is about... the basics of webhooks in n8n.
4. Always set up monitoring
Literally on the first day of public preview, one of the API services broke.
Fortunately, I fixed it super-quickly, all thanks to constant monitoring I'd set up for all my services the evening before publication.
Feel free to check out workfloo.ws and let me know what you think. I always appreciate good roast 🙃
