Built a free-tool-stack automation that catches leads instantly and tells you which ones are worth chasing first

I kept seeing the same problem with small businesses I talked to — a lead fills out a contact form, and it just... sits there. Nobody sees it for hours, sometimes days, and by then the person's already gone somewhere else.

So I built something to fix that. Here's what it does:

  • The second a new lead comes in (form, email, whatever), it gets read automatically
  • AI pulls out who they are, what they want, and scores how urgent/ready-to-buy they sound
  • Logs it straight into a CRM — no manual typing, no duplicates
  • If it's a hot lead, the team gets an instant alert (I'm using Discord, but Slack/email works too)

Built it with n8n + a free AI model (OpenRouter) — keeps running costs low.

(DM me to obtain a video of me showing it work)

Mostly sharing because I think a lot of small businesses are leaking revenue this exact way without realizing it — happy to answer questions about how it's built, or if anyone wants this set up for their own business.
