Notis

Keep competitor changes on your radar

A monthly review can surface the moves worth discussing without making competitor research a daily task.

Trigger

Recurring schedule

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

Action

Create label

Creates a new label with a unique name in the specified user's gmail account.

Why this helps

Competitor changes are easy to miss when checking each rival requires a separate research session.

  • Review competitor changes on a predictable cadence.
  • Focus the brief on named competitors and topics.
  • Make strategic discussion easier to prepare.

Setup

Build it in a few focused steps.

  • 1Connect Ahrefs and Gmail once in the Notis portal.
  • 2Create an automation in Automations, New Automation, and add its name and prompt.
  • 3Tell Notis which competitors and Ahrefs signals to review, then ask it to email the brief.
  • 4Choose a monthly schedule and where run reports should go.
  • 5Test with one real example and tune the scope.
