Why this helps

Useful research is spread across files, so founders spend time reopening documents to remember what matters.

  • Gather relevant Drive files on a recurring schedule.
  • Review key findings without reopening every source document.
  • Keep a dated digest in Drive for later reference.

Setup

Build it in a few focused steps.

  • 1Connect Apipie AI and Google Drive once in the Notis portal.
  • 2Create an automation in Automations, New Automation, and give it a name.
  • 3Tell Notis to find the research files you care about, summarize their available contents into a dated digest, and create the digest as a Google Drive file.
  • 4Choose a recurring schedule and select where run reports should go.
  • 5Test with one real research file and confirm the digest is useful.

Questions about this workflow

Can the workflow summarize every file type?

It can only summarize content available from the files returned and supported by the connected tools. Specify the file types and research scope in your instruction.

Does the schedule watch for new files only?

No. A scheduled trigger starts the workflow on a recurring basis. Instruct Notis to limit its search or use an appropriate date range if needed.
