Track team availability automatically
Every Friday at 4 PM, Notis checks who's marked away or active in Slack and posts a quick presence summary. The team knows who's present for end-of-week coordination without asking around.
Trigger
Recurring schedule
Notis starts this workflow on a schedule, such as daily, weekly, or during business hours.
Action
Find users
Find users in a slack workspace by any criteria - email, name, display name, or other text. includes optimized email lookup for exact email matches.
Why this helps
Understanding team availability requires manual checking; ADHD teams especially struggle to keep track of who's present and responsive without explicit signals.
- Monitor team availability automatically
- Reduce need for manual presence checks
- Build better async communication planning
- Help teams coordinate around actual availability

Questions about this workflow

Can I use this to plan meetings?
Yes. Your prompt can include: 'note who's available for Friday afternoon calls based on their presence'.
