Questions about this workflow
Which sites should I monitor?
Start with top design sites: Dribbble, Behance, Design Observer. Add industry-specific sites and competitor portfolios. Notis handles any URL.
How do I keep images organized?
Notis auto-tags images by design type (UI, branding, layout) and by source site. You can create custom collections or ask Notis to organize by project type.
Can I use this to track design trends?
Yes - over time, Notis identifies emerging design trends in your collected references. Ask for 'trend reports' and see what's shifting in your design inspiration.
