Know Your Raw Material Costs Instantly

Supply chain margins depend on commodity prices. When you update an issue about supplier costs or material sourcing, Notis fetches real-time prices for the commodities you're tracking -- gold, oil, coffee, wheat, whatever your supply chain depends on.

Trigger

Issue Updated Trigger

Triggered when an issue is updated. For example labels are changed, issue status is changed, etc.

Action

Commodity Price

Tool to get real-time price for a commodity. use when you need the current market price by specifying the commodity name. example: "what is the current price of gold?"

Why this helps

Supply chain founders make purchasing decisions without current commodity pricing. By the time you manually check prices, rates have shifted and your quoted cost is stale.

  • Live commodity prices
  • Updated sourcing decisions
  • Margin awareness
  • No sourcing research breaks

Setup

Build it in a few focused steps.

  • 1Connect Linear and Api ninjas to Notis.
  • 2Create an automation: 'When an issue is updated, extract the commodity name (gold, oil, coffee, etc.) from the title or description, fetch its real-time price per standard unit, and post the current market rate as a comment.'
  • 3Select 'Issue Updated' as the trigger.
  • 4Choose a Slack channel for price updates.
  • 5Test by updating an issue 'Gold supplier quotes Q4' and verify commodity price appears.
