Creating a voice-controlled AI assistant that manages emails, calendars, and tasks is now possible using automation tools like n8n and AI integrations. Below is a breakdown of how to set up such a system.

You Should Know:

1. Setting Up n8n for Workflow Automation

n8n is a powerful workflow automation tool that can connect multiple services (Gmail, Google Calendar, Airtable, Telegram).

Installation (Linux/Docker):

docker run -d --name n8n -p 5678:5678 -v ~/.n8n:/home/node/.n8n n8nio/n8n 

Key n8n Nodes to Use:

  • HTTP Request Node (for API calls)
  • Gmail Node (send/receive emails)
  • Google Calendar Node (schedule meetings)
  • Telegram Node (send notifications)
  • Airtable Node (fetch contact details)

2. Voice-to-Text Processing

Use Python + Whisper (OpenAI) for voice recognition:

import whisper

model = whisper.load_model("base") 
result = model.transcribe("voice_command.mp3") 
print(result["text"]) 

Alternative (Linux Command):

sudo apt install speech-recognition pocketsphinx 
python3 -m pip install SpeechRecognition 

3. AI Agent Orchestration

Deploy specialized AI agents for:

  • Email Handling (GPT-4 for drafting responses)
  • Calendar Management (Automated rescheduling)
  • Priority-Based Email Sorting (NLP classification)

Example Workflow:

  1. User speaks: “Schedule a meeting with John at 6 PM.”

2. Whisper converts speech to text.

3. n8n triggers Google Calendar API.

4. Confirmation sent via Telegram.

4. Integrating Telegram for Notifications

Use Telegram Bot API:

curl -X POST "https://api.telegram.org/bot<TOKEN>/sendMessage" -d "chat_id=<CHAT_ID>&text=Meeting Scheduled!" 

What Undercode Say

Building an AI-powered assistant requires:

  • n8n for automation
  • Voice recognition (Whisper, Pocketsphinx)
  • AI agents for task delegation
  • Telegram/Email APIs for notifications

Expected Output:

A fully automated assistant that:

✔ Schedules meetings via voice

✔ Sends emails with HTML signatures

✔ Re-prioritizes tasks dynamically

Prediction

AI personal assistants will soon replace manual scheduling, with 90% of professionals using them by 2026.
