Transform your lead management chaos into a systematic, AI-powered response engine that captures leads from WhatsApp, web forms, social media, and SMS—then automatically qualifies, scores, and responds to every prospect within minutes, ensuring you never miss another sales opportunity. What this workflow does This comprehensive n8n automation workflow creates a centralized lead processing hub that handles multi-channel lead intake seamlessly. The system accepts webhooks from web forms, WhatsApp Cloud API, Instagram/Facebook DMs, Twilio SMS, and missed-call adapters, then normalizes all inputs into a standardized lead format. The workflow features intelligent deduplication through idempotency checking, preventing duplicate processing of recent entries. Each lead is automatically scored 1-10 using OpenRouter's GPT-4o-mini AI model for instant qualification. All lead data, including scores, sources, and status updates, are logged to Google Sheets for comprehensive tracking. The system sends personalized acknowledgment messages back through the original contact channel and triggers owner alerts for high-scoring prospects.
