Notis

Surface records with similar descriptions

Spot related entries in a backlog with similarity scores that make manual review more focused.

Trigger

Recurring schedule

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

Action

Compute Text Similarity

Calculates the semantic similarity between two texts.

Why this helps

Similar records can be hard to notice when wording differs, leading to repeated research or follow-up.

  • Highlights semantically related descriptions for review.
  • Provides a similarity score between text inputs.
  • Reduces time spent scanning a backlog for repeated ideas.

Setup

Build it in a few focused steps.

  • 1Connect AnyDB and Api Ninjas once in the Notis portal.
  • 2Create an automation in Automations, New Automation, or tell Notis what to do from any channel.
  • 3In one instruction, ask Notis to compare eligible descriptions and report likely related pairs with their similarity scores.
  • 4Choose a recurring schedule and select where run reports should go.
  • 5Test with two real descriptions that you expect to be similar.

Questions about this workflow

Does a high similarity score prove two records are duplicates?

No. Use the score to find candidates for human review, since related wording does not establish that records are duplicates.

What is compared?

The action compares two pieces of text. Your instruction should identify which descriptions to compare.
