Notis

Weekly Outreach Reminder

Every Monday, Notis reminds you which contacts you haven't reached out to in a while, so relationships stay warm.

Trigger

Recurring schedule

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

Action

Send Email

Sends an email via gmail api using the authenticated user's google profile display name, requiring `is html=true` if the body contains html and valid `s3key`, `mimetype`, `name` for any attachment.

Why this helps

Neurodivergent founders often neglect relationships due to context-switching and busy schedules; losing touch costs trust and opportunities.

  • Stay in touch without manual tracking
  • Maintain warm relationships with key contacts
  • Regular accountability for outreach

Setup

Build it in a few focused steps.

  • 1Connect Gmail and Airtable to Notis.
  • 2Create an automation: 'Every Monday at 10am, send me a list of contacts I haven't emailed in 2+ weeks.'
  • 3Notis reads your Gmail history and identifies dormant conversations.
  • 4Email includes contact names, last message date, and a suggestion to reach out.
  • 5Reply to the email or click through to start a new message.

Questions about this workflow

How does Notis know who my 'important' contacts are?

You can specify important people by name, label, or company. Or Notis can auto-detect frequent contacts.

Can I change the frequency to biweekly?

Yes. Set it to any schedule that works—weekly, biweekly, or monthly.

What if I recently emailed someone but I'm not done with the conversation?

Notis only flags dormant contacts, so active conversations won't appear in the reminder.
