Developer uses LLM with fixed categories to sort website form inquiries

A developer has created an n8n workflow to sort website form inquiries using an LLM, ensuring the model only selects from a predefined list of categories. This approach prevents inconsistent categorization and ensures that any response outside the defined list is flagged for human review. The workflow handles various scenarios, including invalid emails, API errors, and special characters in form text, and has been tested with mock APIs. AI

IMPACT Provides a practical method for automating the categorization of unstructured text data from web forms.

RANK_REASON The item describes a specific workflow and tool implementation for a practical application of LLMs, rather than a new model release or significant industry event.
