Capture commercial follow-up when interest appears
A new star is a small signal. Notis turns it into a visible business-context checkpoint.
Trigger
New Stargazer Added
Triggers when a new user stars a GitHub repository. Emits an event for each new stargazer detected on the monitored repository.
Action
List Businesses
Tool to list all businesses associated with the authenticated user.
Why this helps
Early interest can lead to opportunities, but founders often lose the thread among product work.
- Notice commercial signals without constant monitoring
- Keep opportunity follow-up lightweight
- Surface business context before deciding on outreach
Setup
Build it in a few focused steps.
- 1Connect GitHub and FreshBooks to Notis once through the portal.
- 2Create the automation in the portal or ask Notis conversationally.
- 3Use this instruction: “When a new user stars my GitHub repository, list my FreshBooks businesses and report whether this looks like a commercial follow-up signal.”
- 4Select the new stargazer trigger, choose a report channel, and test with one real star event.
Questions about this workflow
Is this for every star?
It works best on repositories where stars are meaningful signals; configure the monitored repository accordingly.
Does it contact the stargazer?
No. It only surfaces FreshBooks business context and a suggested review.
