Create Bidsketch fees from Google Docs word count thresholds

A growing scope document can signal that a standard fee is ready to add.

Trigger

Document Word Count Threshold

Triggers when a Google Doc's word/character count crosses a user-defined threshold. This trigger monitors a specific Google Doc and fires when its word or character count becomes greater than or equal to the configured threshold value.

Action

Create Fee

Tool to create a fee. use when you need to add a reusable fee to the account before adding it to a proposal. ensure required fields are set (e.g., unit for custom fees).

Why this helps

Teams notice expanded scope late and scramble to price it consistently.

  • Respond to scope growth
  • Standardize pricing preparation
  • Reduce last-minute admin

Setup

Build it in a few focused steps.

  • 1Connect Google Docs and Bidsketch in Notis.
  • 2Create an automation that reviews the document and creates the appropriate reusable fee when the threshold is reached.
  • 3Pick Document Word Count Threshold as the trigger.
  • 4Choose report delivery and test with one qualifying document.

Questions about this workflow

Can Notis choose the fee amount?

Yes, if your instruction provides the pricing rules and required fee details.

Does this add the fee to a proposal too?

This workflow creates a reusable fee. Adding it to a proposal requires a separate instruction and proposal context.
