Notis

Identify Your Free Time During Business Hours

Each morning, Notis shows you free time slots during your business hours only, so you know exactly how much work time you actually have available.

Trigger

Recurring schedule

Notis starts this workflow on a schedule, such as daily, weekly, or during business hours.

Action

Find free slots

Finds free/busy time slots in google calendars for specified calendars within a defined time range (defaults to the current day utc if `time min`/`time max` are omitted), enhancing busy intervals with event details; `time min` must precede `time max` if both are provided.

Why this helps

Neurodivergent founders often don't distinguish between personal and business calendar time, overestimating how much work time they actually have.

  • See available work time separate from personal commitments
  • Plan realistically based on actual business hours capacity
  • Prevent overcommitting to more work than your hours allow
  • Make work/life boundary distinctions visible and actionable

Setup

Build it in a few focused steps.

  • 1Connect Google Calendar in Notis Integrations.
  • 2Create an automation: 'Every weekday at 6 AM, show me free time slots between 9 AM and 5 PM.'
  • 3Set the trigger to 'Scheduled (Cron)' with business day frequency.
  • 4Specify your business hours in the automation prompt (e.g., 9 AM to 5 PM).
  • 5Receive your daily business hours availability summary next business day.

Questions about this workflow

What if I work non-standard hours?

Specify your working hours in the automation prompt (e.g., 10 AM to 8 PM or 24-hour schedule).

Will this exclude weekends?

Yes. Set it to business days only, or customize to match your actual work schedule.

Can I include breaks (lunch, coffee) in the calculation?

Add those times as calendar events (marked as busy or personal), and Notis will treat them as unavailable.
