Notis

Find competitor topics missing from your Algolia index

Pair scheduled Ahrefs research with an Algolia search so gaps are easier to spot and review.

Action

Why this helps

Competitor research and your searchable content or product catalogue can drift apart without a simple comparison.

  • Check whether competitor topics are represented in your index.
  • Surface gaps for human review before changing content.
  • Keep the comparison in a repeatable scheduled workflow.

Setup

Build it in a few focused steps.

  • 1Connect Ahrefs and Algolia once in the Notis portal.
  • 2Create an automation in Automations, New Automation, and name it.
  • 3Describe: Review the specified competitors in Ahrefs, search my confirmed Algolia index for relevant topics, and report likely coverage gaps without changing records.
  • 4Choose a recurring Notis schedule and where run reports should go.
  • 5Test with one competitor topic and confirm the index name and search are correct.

Questions about this workflow

Will it automatically add competitor topics to Algolia?

No. This workflow searches the index and reports likely gaps for review.

What should I specify?

Name the competitors, the Algolia index, and what counts as relevant coverage for your business.
