Why this helps
Competitor research often gets buried in a browser tab before its implications reach the people making decisions.
- Start a review when a launch, campaign, or planning question arises.
- Receive findings in a familiar team channel.
- Keep the brief focused on evidence and actionable implications.
Setup
Build it in a few focused steps.
- 1Connect Ahrefs and Telegram once in the Notis portal.
- 2Create an automation in Automations, New Automation, or tell Notis to create one from any channel.
- 3Describe the outcome: review the named competitor in Ahrefs for relevant organic search changes and send a concise evidence-based brief to Telegram.
- 4Pick a webhook as the trigger and choose where run reports should go.
- 5Test with one real example, including a competitor name and the question to investigate.
Questions about this workflow
What starts the competitor review?
An HTTP request to the Notis webhook starts it. Include the competitor and research question in the request or automation context.
Will the brief include historic changes?
Only when Ahrefs provides the relevant history or baseline. Supply a comparison period or baseline if it is not available in the returned data.
