Notis

Get context on unfamiliar Brex merchants

Notis can check public merchant websites for business names and descriptions, then summarize what it finds beside recent Brex activity.

Trigger

Recurring schedule

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

Action

Extract structured data

Ask for specific fields from a page.

Why this helps

An unfamiliar merchant name can stall expense review while you search across tabs.

  • Get a quick public description for unfamiliar merchants.
  • Reduce repetitive manual searching during spend review.
  • Flag merchants whose websites do not clarify the transaction.

Setup

Build it in a few focused steps.

  • 1Connect Brex and Web scraping once through the Notis portal.
  • 2Ask Notis to review recent unfamiliar merchants and extract each merchant's public business name and description.
  • 3Create the automation with a weekly cron trigger and choose where Notis reports runs.
  • 4Test with one unfamiliar merchant and check the result against its website.

Questions about this workflow

Can this prove a transaction is legitimate?

No. Public website details provide context, not transaction verification.

What happens if the merchant has no website?

Notis can note that it could not find accessible public business details.
