Summary

Built a multi-user agentic freight RFQ system in n8n that runs the full quote lifecycle: Slack-triggered intake, AI-filled shipment details from chat replies and packing lists, dispatch by email or forwarder portals (Playwright), automatic follow-ups, and LLM extraction of quotes from replies and attachments. Cut quoting time by an estimated 25–40%. Built an agentic client-communication workflow that requests transfer orders in client Slack channels and parses replies, even out-of-thread or days later, matching each one to the right shipment and updating the planning sheet. Built and shipped five multi-user automations used across the supply chain team; on one client account, they cut the work from two people to one. Built an Amazon FBA shipment plan automation (SP-API, Slack, Google Sheets/Drive) across three inbound flows (SPD partnered, SPD non-partnered, LTL non-partnered), from plan creation through label delivery. Adopted by the full team for a task that was ~25% of its workload, cutting time spent by 50–55% (per user feedback). Built client-facing Slack alerts that turn SKU-level shipment errors into plain language, and secured Slack tokens behind an authenticated n8n proxy. Automated advance shipping notice (ASN) emails for 11+ suppliers, generated from new shipment plans with per-account templates and attached labels. The team now only reviews and approves, roughly halving ASN time.

Results

  • On one client account, automations cut the work from two people to one.
  • Automation adopted by the full team for a task that was ~25% of its workload, cutting time spent by 50–55% (per user feedback).
  • Roughly halved ASN time for 11+ suppliers.

Summary

Automated an ownership-filings workflow previously handled manually by a 5–6 person team: scrapers fetch financial forms, a custom code-based parser handles the core form, LLMs parse the remaining forms into enforced output schemas, and the extracted records are stored in PostgreSQL. Built that core form parser and validated it during development on 7,000+ documents, with the team manually reviewing its output: 96.5% accuracy. Built an end-to-end pipeline for HKEX share buyback filings: scraper → PDF parser → prompt-driven LLM step (LangChain) that processes the parsed output into structured JSON and CSV for validation, then stores the results in a database. Replaced a fully manual process; still running in production over a year later. Set up Arize Phoenix to trace production LLM calls, collecting traces and cleaning datasets for evaluation. Built an internal multi-agent analytics prototype translating natural language to SQL, with guardrails for cost, latency and failures. Built 12+ production scrapers in n8n across global stock exchanges and financial sites, each running end to end on trigger: extraction, cleaning, schema-enforced validation and database ingestion. Designed PostgreSQL schemas and optimized queries for high-volume financial data storage and analytics.

Urdu discourse parsing research

Researcheracademic
Ran input ablation studies (removing punctuation, removing connective words, shuffling the text) and measured the change in performance to investigate how UniRST, a multilingual RST discourse parser never trained on Urdu, is able to split Urdu text into elementary discourse units (EDUs) and build valid discourse trees.
