Notis

Give competitor research a regular decision slot

Review competitor changes with a clear purpose and time to decide whether they call for action.

Trigger

Recurring schedule

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

Action

Create Event

Creates an event on a google calendar, needing rfc3339 utc start/end times (end after start) and write access to the calendar. by default, adds the organizer as an attendee unless exclude organizer is set to true.

Why this helps

Competitor research can turn into a stream of observations without a moment to decide what matters.

  • Provides a recurring time to review competitor data.
  • Keeps the session focused on decisions rather than endless monitoring.
  • Lets you specify the review timing and duration.

Setup

Build it in a few focused steps.

  • 1Connect Ahrefs and Google Calendar once in the Notis portal.
  • 2Create an automation with a name, prompt, report channel, and trigger.
  • 3Tell Notis to review Ahrefs competitor data and create a calendar block for assessing changes and deciding on responses.
  • 4Choose notis_cron as the recurring trigger and choose where run reports should go.
  • 5Test with one real competitor review and check the calendar event.

Questions about this workflow

Does Ahrefs provide a full history of competitor changes?

Not necessarily. Ask Notis to use the data Ahrefs returns, and supply any comparison baseline or history you need if it is unavailable.

Can I use a different schedule?

Yes. Choose the recurring schedule that suits your review routine.
