Trigger Types

Four ways to start an automation.

A trigger is the event that kicks a workflow off. Notis supports four kinds: an event in a connected app, an inbound webhook, a recurring schedule, and soon, your own database.

Integration triggers

Fire when something happens inside a connected app. New Notion page, Stripe charge, Linear issue: any of 1,000+ apps can start a workflow.

New Notion pageStripe chargeCalendar event

Webhook triggers

A unique URL per workflow. Anything that can send an HTTP POST can start an automation, including no-code tools that speak webhooks.

Recurring triggers

Cron-style schedules run a workflow on the clock. Daily standups, hourly syncs, business-hours-only digests: the workhorse of Notis.

Database triggers

Watch a row, query, or threshold in your own database and fire the moment the data changes. Row inserted, value crosses a limit, query starts matching.

Why AI automation

Classic automation breaks. AI adapts.

Same triggers and actions, smarter middle. AI handles the fuzziness that breaks traditional Zapier-style workflows the moment a field gets renamed.
