Send Weekly AI News Digest

What It Does

Every Monday morning, this workflow searches the internet for everything significant that happened in AI last week. It delivers a structured weekly digest to your Telegram covering new model releases, top tool launches, pricing and API changes from major providers, the most discussed research result, and notable funding or acquisition news — plus the single most important development of the week in one line.

Why It Matters

The AI space moves faster than any other technology sector right now. A new model drops, gets superseded, and is forgotten in days. Pricing changes happen without announcements. Breakout tools go from launch to 100K users in a week. Trying to track this across X, Reddit, Hugging Face, and LinkedIn simultaneously is a part-time job. This workflow consolidates everything into one Monday message, so you start the week informed instead of catching up all day.

How It Works

1. Scheduled Trigger — Fires every Monday at 8 AM UTC, ready for your morning review.
2. AI Agent with Internet Search — Searches live sources for model releases, tool launches, API changes, research highlights, and funding news from the past 7 days across all major AI providers and startups.
3. Telegram Message — Delivers a structured weekly digest covering every major category in one clean message.

What You Get

• Every significant new AI model released last week with key capability and pricing context
• Top 3 AI tools or product features launched by startups and big tech
• Pricing changes and API updates from major providers
• The most talked-about research paper or benchmark of the week
• Major funding rounds and acquisitions in AI
• The week's single most important development in one sentence

Who It's For

• AI developers and engineers who need to know which new models to evaluate
• Founders and product managers building on top of AI APIs who need to track pricing changes
• AI researchers who want a curated weekly benchmark and paper summary
• Business leaders and consultants who advise on AI adoption and need to stay current

Setup

1. Connect your Telegram bot — Create a bot via @BotFather on Telegram, then get your chat ID via @userinfobot. This takes about 5 minutes.
2. Set your Telegram chat ID — Replace the placeholder chat ID in the Telegram node with your actual chat ID (a numeric value, not a phone number).
3. Submit the workflow — Do not publish, to preserve your Needle credits.
4. Receive your digest — Every Monday morning at 8 AM UTC.

Important: The Telegram chat ID is a numeric identifier (e.g., 123456789), not a phone number. You can find yours by messaging @userinfobot on Telegram.

Customize It

• Share with your team — Change the chat ID to a Telegram group to deliver the digest to your engineering or product team.
• Switch to a Friday recap — Change the cron schedule to 0 8 * * 5 if you prefer an end-of-week summary instead of Monday morning.
• Adjust the search scope — Edit the AI agent prompt to focus on specific areas (e.g., only open-source models, or only enterprise AI tools).
