Get optional insights for new GitHub followers

Notice new audience interest without adding a recurring research chore to your day.

Trigger

Follower Changes

Triggers when new followers are detected on your GitHub account.

Action

Get Gender from Username

Tool to determine gender from a username or nickname. Use when you have an alias or handle and want to infer gender from that identifier.

Why this helps

Founder attention is limited, so follower changes can become another unnoticed stream of weak but useful signals.

  • Makes follower changes visible
  • Automates one small research step
  • Sends a focused update

Setup

Build it in a few focused steps.

  • 1Connect GitHub and GenderAPI.io to Notis once.
  • 2Create a new automation in the portal.
  • 3Tell Notis to query each new follower username and report the optional result.
  • 4Select Follower Changes and choose where run reports should arrive.
  • 5Use a real follower change to test it.
