Put the most relevant Hex research first
Turn a broad set of matches into a more focused reading order when an important question lands.
Trigger
Webhook received
Notis starts this workflow when an external tool or custom backend sends an HTTP request.
Action
Rerank Documents
Tool to rerank documents by semantic relevance to a query. Use when you need to order retrieved documents by their semantic relevance to a user's search query using Pinecone's hosted reranking models.
Why this helps
A long list of plausible research results still takes effort to sift through when attention is already split.
- Prioritize documents by question relevance.
- Reduce scanning through loosely related results.
- Help your team get to useful context sooner.
Setup
Build it in a few focused steps.
- 1Connect Hex and Pinecone to Notis once in the portal.
- 2Create an automation in the portal or ask Notis conversationally.
- 3Write one plain-language instruction asking Notis to rerank the Hex-derived documents supplied by your search tool for the incoming question.
- 4Choose the incoming webhook trigger and a channel for run reports.
- 5Send one real question with its candidate documents and review the reordered results.
Questions about this workflow
Does this find candidate documents itself?
The rerank action orders documents by relevance. Your workflow should supply the documents to be reranked.
How does a request arrive?
An internal search tool or backend calls the Notis webhook with the question and candidate documents.
