Creating content consistently is hard.
Finding high-quality news, trends, and insights every single day is even harder.
That’s why I built the Beast Content Engine, an automated content discovery system using n8n that:
• Scans multiple RSS feeds automatically
• Extracts titles and summaries
• Removes duplicate articles
• Filters important content using smart keyword logic
• Prioritizes high-impact news
• Stores everything neatly inside Airtable
- No more endless scrolling.
- No more missing trends.
- Just clean, curated content delivered on autopilot.
And the best part?
You can download the exact workflow I use.
🚀 What This n8n Automation Does
This workflow automatically pulls content from:

Then it intelligently processes everything by:

⚙️ Step-By-Step Workflow Logic (What Each Part Does)
🔹 RSS Feed Sources
The workflow pulls content from multiple curated RSS feeds across finance, startups, AI, layoffs, and geopolitics.
You can easily add more sources by editing the Set nodes.
🔹 Merge & Split System
All feed URLs are merged and converted into a loopable list so n8n can process each RSS source automatically.
🔹 RSS Reader
Each feed is scanned and all articles are pulled into the workflow.
🔹 Aggregate Node
All fetched articles are combined into a single dataset for processing.
🔹 Duplicate Removal
The workflow removes repeated articles using:
• Unique GUIDs
• Article links
This ensures only fresh content remains.
🔹 Smart Content Filtering
Articles are filtered using keyword intelligence across:
- Finance
- Startups
- AI & Technology
- Layoffs
- Jobs
- Geopolitics

Low-quality and irrelevant content like gossip, ads, sports, and lifestyle is automatically removed.
🔹 Priority Scoring System
Each article is assigned:
- High Priority
- Medium Priority
- Low Priority
Based on keywords like:
- Funding announcements
- IPO news
- Big financial numbers
- Layoffs
- AI breakthroughs
So you always see what matters most first.
