Good to know

Each job processed costs approximately $0.02-0.04 USD in Claude API fees (two API calls per job)
Processing time is ~45-60 seconds per job
The workflow uses Claude Sonnet for optimal cost/quality balance
Generated scripts are starting points - review and personalize before recording

How it works

Submit an Upwork job via the built-in form (title, description, optional client name and URL)
Claude AI analyzes the job to extract: industry classification, pain points, tools mentioned, budget/urgency signals, and competition level
A second Claude call generates the complete outreach package based on the analysis
All assets are saved to a Google Doc named by prospect
Lead data is logged to Google Sheets for tracking
Slack notification delivers the doc link and key insights

What you get for each job:
90-120 second Loom video script (hook, credibility, walkthrough, CTA)
Before/After process comparison with ROI calculations
Automation flow diagram structure
Upwork proposal opening snippet
Visual prompts for Whimsical/Figma diagrams
Quick reference card with pricing guidance

How to use

The form trigger creates a URL at your-n8n-instance/form/upwork-loom-generator
Paste the full job description for best results - more context = better analysis
Add the client name if visible for personalized script openings
After generation, review the Google Doc and customize the script to your voice
Use the visual prompts to create diagrams before recording your Loom
