Building a Free Voice AI Agent with Gemini 3 and N8N

This guide details how to create a functional voice AI agent for an electric company using Google's Gemini 3 and the no-code platform N8N. The process is designed to be beginner-friendly, requiring no coding expertise.

Demo of the Voice AI Agent

The video begins with a demonstration of a voice AI agent for "Brightwire Electric." The agent, named Sarah, successfully handles a customer's request to fix kitchen lights. The interaction involves:

  • Customer Inquiry: John Doe calls about his kitchen lights going out.
  • Information Gathering: Sarah collects John's name, phone number (5103352211), and email ([email protected]).
  • Appointment Scheduling: John requests an appointment for tomorrow at 9:00 a.m.
  • Availability Check: The agent checks the calendar, finds 9:00 a.m. unavailable, and offers alternative times (10:00 a.m. to 1:00 p.m. and after 2:00 p.m.).
  • Confirmation: John chooses 12:00 p.m., and the agent confirms the appointment for tomorrow at 12:00 p.m.
  • Email Confirmation: A confirmation email is sent to the provided email address (though the demo shows a mail delivery subsystem error for a fictitious email).

The agent's ability to check the calendar, offer alternatives, and schedule an appointment demonstrates its integration with backend systems. The low latency is attributed to Gemini 2.5 Flash, a fast model for voice agents.

Step 1: Building the Frontend with Gemini 3 (Google AI Studio)

The first step involves creating the user-facing interface using Google AI Studio.

  1. Access Google AI Studio: Navigate to studio.google.com/apps.
  2. Initial Prompt: Use a prompt to guide Gemini 3 in building the website. An example prompt provided is: "Create a website that focuses on electricians based on the agency that I'm currently running, which is a voice AI agency that offers these services to electrical companies. Make sure the site includes two distinct voice agents: the front desk electrician assistant that handles everyday scheduling and questions, and the second, an emergency electrical dispatch agent."
  3. Agent Roles:
    • Front Desk Assistant (Alex): Handles general scheduling and inquiries. This agent is connected to N8N for backend operations.
    • Emergency Dispatch Agent (Marcus): Designed for emergencies, potentially advising users to call 911. This agent was not fully tested in the demo.
  4. Website Generation: Gemini 3 generates a website with a frontend interface, including options to interact with the "Alex" (front desk) and "Marcus" (emergency dispatch) agents. The website is named "Brightwire Electric" with the tagline "Never miss a call, never miss a job."
  5. Testing the Frontend: The "Alex" agent is tested, and it responds to a greeting. The prompt can be modified to make the agent initiate the conversation.

Step 2: Building the Backend with N8N

N8N is used to create the backend logic, enabling the voice agent to interact with external services like Google Calendar.

  1. N8N Account: Create a free 14-day account on N8N (link provided in the description). Self-hosting is also an option.

  2. Workflow Setup: The goal is to build an AI agent that can access Google Calendar and interact with the Gemini voice agent via webhooks.

  3. Importing a Blueprint: Instead of building from scratch, the presenter imports a pre-made N8N blueprint for the voice agent. This blueprint contains the entire workflow.

  4. Workflow Components:

    • Webhook: The starting point for N8N automations.
      • URL: Each webhook has a test and production URL. The test URL is used for development.
      • Path: A specific path (e.g., "test") is configured for the webhook. The full URL will be [your_n8n_url]/webhook/test.
      • HTTP Request: Set to POST.
    • AI Agent (N8N): The core AI processing unit.
      • Chat Model: The "brain" of the AI agent. The presenter uses GPT4.1 mini (OpenAI) but suggests Google Gemini chat models are also available.
      • Memory: Not configured in this setup.
      • Tools: These allow the AI agent to perform actions.
        • Get Events (Google Calendar Tool): Configured to retrieve events from a specified Google Calendar.
          • Operation: get_many to fetch all events.
          • Calendar: Select the user's calendar.
          • Parameters: The AI can automatically define parameters like after and before based on the query.
        • Book Meeting (Google Calendar Tool): Configured to create new calendar events.
          • Operation: create.
          • Calendar: Select the user's calendar.
          • Additional Fields: attendee, description, and summary are added to capture necessary event details.
          • Parameter Definition: The AI automatically defines parameters for these fields.
        • SER API (Optional): Provides internet access for the AI agent to search for information.
      • AI Agent Prompt (System Message): This is crucial for instructing the AI agent.
        • Role: "You're a helpful assistant who responds to user requests in a fun, friendly, and professional way."
        • Date/Time: The current date and time are provided.
        • Tool Usage Instructions:
          • "Web information queries for general purposes. Use SER API to fetch results from Google search."
          • Booking Logic: "If an appointment is being requested, first check the get_events tool to see if that requested meeting time is available. If it is available, then use the book_meeting tool to create the appointment and send that confirmation. If the time is not available, provide all of the available times."
      • Connecting Frontend to Backend: The prompt within the Gemini AI Studio needs to be updated to send scheduling requests to the N8N webhook URL. This prompt instructs the voice agent to collect required fields (name, phone, email, date, time, description), confirm them, send a POST request to the N8N webhook, wait for a response, and relay the confirmation.
    • Respond to Webhook: This node sends the processed information back to the frontend.
      • Response Type: JSON below.
      • Data: The output from the AI agent is stringified into JSON format to be sent back to the frontend.
  5. Data Flow:

    • The voice agent on the frontend collects user information (name, phone, email, desired time, issue description).
    • This data is sent as a JSON payload via a POST request to the N8N webhook URL.
    • The N8N webhook triggers the AI agent.
    • The AI agent uses the get_events tool to check Google Calendar for availability.
    • If the time is available, it uses the book_meeting tool to create the event.
    • If the time is unavailable, it informs the user of available slots.
    • The AI agent's response (confirmation or alternative times) is sent back to the frontend via the "Respond to Webhook" node.
  6. Parameter Mapping: The data received from the frontend webhook (e.g., body.name, body.phone, body.email) is mapped to the AI agent's prompt and tools. This is done by dragging and dropping the incoming data fields into the prompt or tool configurations within N8N.

Production-Ready Voice Agents

For building production-ready voice AI agents, the presenter recommends Retell AI, a more advanced no-code platform. They offer a comprehensive course and certification program, which can help individuals secure clients and projects in the voice AI space. Examples of successful client projects are mentioned, with one closing a $22,000 voice bid.

Community Resources

The presenter encourages viewers to join their community for access to resources, including:

  • N8N beginner, intermediate, and advanced courses.
  • Vibe coding courses with Gemini.
  • Links to all mentioned resources will be in the video description.
