I am building this WhatsApp bot that you can use to add notes to Notion (and other apps), files to Google Drive just by sending it to the bot.

I made it with the help of a friend cause I needed something like this for myself. Would you use it? Do you think it helps your workflow?

Being able to schedule meetings, drop files to cloud, check to-dos via WhatsApp text sounds convenient to me.

A workaround to do some of this is create a group with one other person then remove them (tell them first what you're doing so they don't feel hurt). This leaves a group with just yourself as a member. You can then send yourself messages, reminders, etc.

That's where this idea came from. The problem with the group was that I had to manually take actions later on after writing myself in that group.

We made the bot to initiate actions as well based on the messages there are.

If it's a PDF/image/doc - it gets uploaded to your Google Drive. If it's a text message - it gets added to Notion. It it's a text message that says "schedule" - a calendar event is scheduled.

More such routines will be added soon.

It looks interesting. More complete set of solutions than the manual process I described in my other comment.
