Find investor firms that fit your thesis
Turn a recurring research prompt into a shortlist of public investor organization data to review.
Trigger
Recurring schedule
Notis starts this workflow on a schedule, such as daily, weekly, or during business hours.
Action
Diffbot Knowledge Graph Search
Searches the Knowledge Graph for entities using structured queries.
Why this helps
Keeping a pipeline of relevant firms current can take repeated searches across disconnected sources.
- Run a repeatable search against the Diffbot Knowledge Graph.
- Keep the search anchored to criteria you supply, such as geography or investment focus.
- Receive candidates as a review list instead of reopening the same research process.
Setup
Build it in a few focused steps.
- 1Connect Diffbot once in the Notis portal and keep your Affinity workspace connected for follow-up research.
- 2Create an automation in Automations, New Automation, and name it.
- 3In one instruction, specify the investor firm criteria and ask Notis to search Diffbot and summarize candidate organizations with source details.
- 4Pick a recurring schedule and choose where run reports should go.
- 5Test with one real search and adjust the criteria if the results are too broad.
Questions about this workflow
What criteria should I provide?
State the organization type and any filters you care about, such as location, investment stage, or focus area. The search can only use criteria supported by Diffbot's Knowledge Graph.
Does this add firms to Affinity?
No. The available action searches Diffbot and provides results for your review; no Affinity write action is included.
Can it repeat on a schedule?
Yes. Choose a recurring Notis schedule when setting up the automation.
