Questions about this workflow
Can Notis make investor claims from the data?
Ask it to report the available statistics and their periods. Any business interpretation or market claim should be reviewed against your own assumptions and evidence.
Will it share the document with investors?
This workflow creates the document in Drive. Use a separate review step before sharing externally.
