Check a firm's stated investment geography

Confirm whether a firm publicly describes the geographies it invests in before assessing fit.

Trigger

Notis starts this workflow when an external tool or custom backend sends an HTTP request.

Action

Scrape webpage content using CSS selectors

Why this helps

Geographic fit can be easy to assume from a firm's location, even when its investment scope is different.

  • Separate a firm's location from its stated investment geography.
  • Use public page evidence for fit review.
  • Flag unclear or unstated geographic criteria.

Setup

Build it in a few focused steps.

  • 1Connect Affinity and Browserless once in the Notis portal.
  • 2Create an automation named Investor Geography Thesis Check.
  • 3Tell Notis to use the selected Affinity firm record to inspect public investment pages and report only explicitly stated investment geographies, with source page details where available.
  • 4Pick the webhook trigger and choose where run reports should go.
  • 5Test with one real firm and confirm the result does not infer geography from office location.

Questions about this workflow

Can it infer geography from the firm's office address?

The instruction asks for explicitly stated investment geographies. Office location alone is not evidence of investment scope.

What if the firm gives no geographic focus?

The result should say that no explicit geographic focus was found in the pages checked.
