Notis

Keep up with public news about portfolio companies

Get a recurring, focused search summary for the companies you choose to monitor.

Trigger

Recurring schedule

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

Action

Search SERP Synchronously

Searches Google, Bing, DuckDuckGo, or Yandex and returns results immediately.

Why this helps

Remembering to check every portfolio company means repeated context switching and uneven follow-up.

  • Search for selected portfolio companies on a recurring schedule.
  • Summarize relevant public results in one report.
  • Keep the watchlist explicit so missing company names are not guessed.

Setup

Build it in a few focused steps.

  • 1Connect Affinity and Bright Data once in the Notis portal.
  • 2Create a Notis automation for portfolio company monitoring.
  • 3In one instruction, ask Notis to search for the specific portfolio companies you name and summarize relevant results with sources.
  • 4Choose a recurring schedule trigger and select where run reports should go.
  • 5Test with one real company and review whether the results are useful.

Questions about this workflow

Will Notis know which companies to monitor?

Name the companies in the instruction or provide the list in the automation context. Do not assume an unprovided watchlist.

Can I choose how often it runs?

Yes. Select a recurring schedule when choosing the Notis trigger.
