Find websites using a technology from an email

A question about a specific technology can be the start of a focused site search. Notis can ask BuiltWith for websites using that technology when a new Gmail message arrives.

Trigger

Triggers when a new message is received in Gmail.

Action

Lists API Get List

Why this helps

A technology research request can get buried in email while the search itself remains a separate manual task.

  • Turn a specific technology mention into a list of websites using it.
  • Keep the research prompt close to the original email.
  • Reduce manual searching for sites with a technology.

Setup

Build it in a few focused steps.

  • 1Connect Gmail and BuiltWith once in the Notis portal.
  • 2Create an automation through Automations, New Automation, and name it.
  • 3Tell Notis to identify a specific technology clearly named in a new message and retrieve websites using it from BuiltWith.
  • 4Choose New Gmail Message Received as the trigger and select where run reports should go.
  • 5Test with one real inbound message that names a specific technology.
