Collective Demand Gap Analysis
Every 20th of month: Notis clusters collective questions by topic. You see exactly where demand is high and where support is needed.
Trigger
Recurring schedule
Notis starts this workflow on a schedule, such as daily, weekly, or during business hours.
Action
Get Collective Questions
Tool to retrieve questions associated with the specified collective. use when you have a collective id and need its questions for a site.
Why this helps
Your collective grows but patterns hide in noise. You teach topics based on guesses, not data. Curriculum misses real learner needs.
- Monthly insight shows question clusters and demand patterns you'd otherwise miss in noise
- Data-driven curriculum planning instead of guessing what topics matter
- Identifies high-demand topics worth creating new courses around
- Shows where support is needed so you can intervene before learners ghost
Setup
Build it in a few focused steps.
- 1Connect both integrations to Notis.
- 2Ask Notis: 'On the 20th of each month, get all questions posted in my collective this month and group by topic. Flag topics with many unanswered questions.'
- 3Set trigger to monthly cron (20th).
- 4Route clustered analysis to your curriculum email or Slack.
- 5Use patterns to inform course creation and curriculum updates.
Questions about this workflow
Can I see trends over time?
Yes. Ask Notis to compare this month to last month or quarterly to spot trends.
How should I interpret the clusters?
High question count = high demand. Lots of unanswered = gap in support.
Can I export for reporting?
Notis sends to email or Slack. Copy/paste into your reporting tools or share with leadership.
