Check unread Beamer posts before your deal review

See how many Beamer posts are unread before you sit down to review deals and plan follow-ups.

Trigger

Recurring schedule

Notis starts this workflow on a schedule, such as daily, weekly, or during business hours.

Action

Count Unread Posts

Counts a user’s unread posts.

Why this helps

Unread product updates can accumulate while deal work takes priority, leaving founders without a quick catch-up signal.

  • Get a simple unread post count on a recurring schedule.
  • Use the count as a cue to review updates before deal conversations.
  • Keep the check lightweight without requiring an announcement search.

Setup

Build it in a few focused steps.

  • 1Connect Affinity and Beamer once in Notis.
  • 2Create an automation in plain language or in Automations, New Automation.
  • 3Describe that the automation should count unread Beamer posts and report the result before your deal review.
  • 4Choose a recurring schedule and a channel for run reports.
  • 5Test once and confirm the returned unread count.
