Notis

Revisit older research notes before they go stale

Bring older observations back into view when they may still affect decisions.

Trigger

Recurring schedule

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

Action

Create Note

Creates a note in a project; its content is stored but not returned.

Why this helps

Useful evidence can age out of attention while remaining technically available.

  • Prompt periodic review of older evidence.
  • Keep potentially relevant notes visible.
  • Reduce dependence on remembering past research.

Setup

Build it in a few focused steps.

  • 1Connect AnyDB and Dovetail in Notis once.
  • 2Create an automation and specify what age or review status defines stale notes.
  • 3Pick a recurring schedule as the trigger.
  • 4Choose where Notis should send run reports.
  • 5Test with real older research notes.

Questions about this workflow

How are stale notes identified?

Use a date, review status, or other available AnyDB record detail in the instruction.

Does this assert that older evidence is still valid?

No. It brings records forward for review; the team must assess whether the evidence still applies.
