Notify me when the price drops below €50. Monitor new blog posts on [industry leader's website] and summarize key insights.

How it works When clicking 'test workflow' in the editor, a new browser tab will open where you can fill in the details of your espionage assignment Make sure you be as concise as possible when instructing AI. Instruct specific and to the point (see examples at the bottom). After submission, the flow will start off by extracting both the relevant website url and an optimized prompt.
