About Angie, personal AI assistant with Telegram voice and text

Angie is an n8n workflow that runs a personal AI assistant through Telegram. It accepts both voice and text input — transcribing voice messages via OpenAI Speech-to-Text — then uses connected tools to summarize recent Gmail emails, look up Google Calendar entries, fetch to-do items and contacts from a Baserow database, and reply back to you on Telegram. A practical starting point for anyone building a voice-and-text personal assistant on n8n.

Telegram Trigger: The workflow starts with a Telegram trigger that listens for incoming message events. The system determines if the incoming message is voice or text. If voice, the voice file is retrieved and transcribed to text using OpenAI's API Speech to Text

AI Assistant: The telegram request is passed to the AI assistant (Angie).

Tools Integration: The AI assistant is equipped with several tools:

Get Email: Uses Gmail API to fetch recent emails, filtering by date.
Get Calendar: Retrieves calendar entries for specified dates.
Get Tasks: Connects to a Baserow (open-source Airtable alternative) database to fetch to-do list items.
Get Contacts: Also uses Baserow to retrieve contact information.
Response Generation: The AI formulates a response based on the gathered information and sends back to the user on Telegram
