AI Lead Intake & Triage (n8n)

Feature Highlights

One intake endpoint per form, protected by a shared header secret

Separate workflows for the contact form, newsletter sign-up and catering quote request
Each webhook requires a secret header, so only the website's own server can post to it
The browser gets its response before the slower steps run, so a slow AI or Sheets call never leaves a visitor waiting

n8n: Webhook, Code, If and Respond to Webhook nodes orchestrating each intake flow.
OpenAI: GPT models classify each message and return a category and a short reason as JSON.
Google Sheets: Append-only log of every submission, one sheet per form.
Google Chat: Card alerts with reply and call buttons for the team.
Gmail: HTML notification emails for contact and catering requests.
NeverBounce: Verifies leads' email addresses before follow-up.

Contact forms where most inbound messages are sales pitches rather than customers
Law firms and professional services that can't afford to miss a genuine enquiry
Catering or quote requests that need a fast, well-structured summary for whoever prices them
Newsletter sign-ups logged in one place, with an alert for each new subscriber
Any website form that should reach a team chat and a spreadsheet without a CRM

A visitor submits a contact, newsletter or catering form on the website.
The webhook checks the secret, replies to the browser and cleans the submission.
Bots are blocked, real messages are sorted by the AI and email addresses are verified.
Every submission is logged to Google Sheets.
The team gets a chat card and an email with Reply and Call buttons.
