PDF Image Extraction and AI Analysis
This n8n workflow provides a powerful, automated solution for extracting images from PDF documents, applying advanced AI analysis using GPT-4o, and consolidating the insights into a structured text file. It's designed for anyone needing to quickly derive actionable intelligence from visual content within PDFs without manual effort.
Key Features
- Automated image extraction from PDF files via ConvertAPI.
- Intelligent image analysis and description generation using OpenAI's GPT-4o.
- Centralized compilation of all image URLs and their AI analyses into a single, cohesive text output.
- Seamless integration with Google Drive for PDF input and easy extensibility for output.
How It Works
This workflow begins by fetching a specified PDF document from Google Drive. It then utilizes ConvertAPI to extract all embedded images from the PDF. Each extracted image is processed individually: its URL is passed to OpenAI's GPT-4o model for a detailed AI-driven analysis. The resulting analysis for each image, along with its original URL, is then collected. Finally, all the analyzed content is combined into one comprehensive output and saved as a .txt file, providing a complete summary of the PDF's visual elements and their AI interpretations.
