Why this helps
Comparing vendor offers takes repeated context switching when prices, terms, and caveats live in separate email threads.
- Puts new vendor offers into a single comparison view
- Summarizes terms and open questions for follow-up
- Makes it easier to revisit options before deciding
Setup
Build it in a few focused steps.
- 1Connect Agent mail and Google Sheets once in the Notis portal.
- 2Create an automation in Automations, New Automation, or tell Notis from any channel.
- 3In one instruction, ask Notis to identify new vendor quotes, summarize price, terms, and open questions, then update your comparison spreadsheet.
- 4Choose Agent mail's New Email Received trigger and choose a report destination.
- 5Test with one real vendor quote email and check that the summary is accurate.
Questions about this workflow
Can it decide which vendor is best?
You can ask Notis to compare offers against criteria you provide. The workflow should not infer criteria or facts absent from the messages.
What if pricing is not stated clearly?
Ask Notis to mark unclear or missing pricing for review rather than guessing.
