Why this helps

Busy founders lose track of new evidence because review happens only when someone remembers.

  • Surfaces gaps and new evidence
  • Reduces manual workspace scanning

  • 4Choose a recurring Notis schedule and select a report channel.

Questions about this workflow

Can the review focus on one project?

Yes. Include the project or scope in the instruction when the available Dovetail data supports it.

Can it avoid repeating old items?

Ask Notis to prioritize data added or changed since the previous report, if that history is available.
