Search

Tool to perform unified search across 40+ search engines including Google, Bing, Yahoo, DuckDuckGo, YouTube, Amazon, and more. Use when you need to retrieve search results with rich structured data including organic results, ads, knowledge graphs, local listings, images, videos, and related searches. Supports advanced filtering by location, language, date, device type, and SafeSearch settings.

Why this helps

Switching away from a draft to research can break focus and make it hard to return to the same thought.

  • Start research from the moment a topic needs it
  • Keep a repeatable prompt for issue research
  • Reduce scattered manual searches during drafting

Setup

Build it in a few focused steps.

  • 1Connect Beehiiv and Search api to Notis once in the portal.
  • 2Create an automation that describes how Notis should search for context around a draft topic.
  • 3Pick an incoming webhook trigger and connect it to your writing process or custom backend.
  • 4Choose a report channel and test with a topic from a real draft.

Questions about this workflow

Can this start directly from Beehiiv?

Beehiiv has no trigger event here. Use a Notis webhook sent by your writing process or custom backend.

Can the search prompt stay consistent?

Yes. State the research approach once in the automation prompt, then send the relevant topic context when triggering it.
