Why this helps
Keeping up with competitor announcements means interrupting focused work to search headlines and sort what matters.
- Review relevant coverage in one short update.
- Use competitor names or topics supplied in your Affinda workflow context.
- Reduce manual headline searches.
Setup
Build it in a few focused steps.
- 1Connect Affinda and Currents api once in the Notis portal.
- 2Create an automation in Automations, New Automation, and give it a name and prompt.
- 3In one instruction, ask Notis to search Currents for specified competitors and summarize relevant results.
- 4Pick a recurring schedule and choose where run reports go.
- 5Test with one real example, supplying competitor names if they are not present in your Affinda context.
Questions about this workflow
Does Affinda start this automation?
No. Affinda has no listed trigger events, so this workflow starts on a Notis schedule. Its prompt can use relevant competitor context you provide from your Affinda workflows.
Can Notis find competitors automatically?
Only if their names are available in the supplied context. Otherwise, include the names in the instruction or provide them when testing.
