We hosted a workshop with Chris Brownridge and he blew our minds with some of his sales-driven, Google Sheets-integrated AI workflows. One of them in particular—a Slack signals bot—we found particularly impressive. It checks a Google Sheet of target companies regularly, finds updates across the web about the companies, and sends these company updates to Slack to keep sales teams up to speed automatically on their key accounts.
We decided to create a step-by-step tutorial of this workflow with one of our favorite AI tools—Lindy. In this tutorial, we’ll build a company research AI assistant in Lindy that searches the Internet for new company updates from a list in Google Sheets and sends these updates to you via Slack—no code required.
In this tutorial, you will learn to:
- Create a scheduled trigger that scans a Google Sheet
- Browse the Internet for company updates
- Update the Google Sheet with recent news
- Send company updates via Slack
- Test the workflow
Tools needed:
- Google Sheets
- Lindy
- Slack
Let’s get into it!
