Why this helps
A broad progress summary can bury the few goals that deserve a closer look.
- Bring potentially urgent goals into one inbox view
- Keep the review focused on exceptions
- Review the draft before sharing it
Setup
Build it in a few focused steps.
- 1Connect Beeminder and Gmail once in the Notis portal.
- 2Create an automation in Automations, then New Automation.
- 3Tell Notis what signs in the Beeminder data should count as needing attention, then ask it to draft a short email listing those goals.
- 4Pick a recurring schedule and choose where run reports should go.
- 5Test with one real example and check that the attention criteria match your intent.
Questions about this workflow
Can Notis decide what counts as at risk?
Give Notis the criteria in your instruction. It can only assess information returned by Beeminder, so include any missing baseline or rule yourself.
Does this workflow change my Beeminder goals?
No. It reviews returned information and creates a Gmail draft.
