Weekly Research Task Automation
Run a set of research tasks every week at the same time without having to remember or manually trigger them.
Async Research Auto-Launch & Completion Tracking
When you update an issue status to In Progress, it automatically launches async research in Apify and tracks completion.
Automatic Context Storage for Research Issues
When a research issue is created, automatically store the description and context in Apify's key-value store for later reference.
Timeout Detection & Long-Running Task Alerts
Every 4 hours, check for Apify actors that have been running too long and create urgent Linear issues to investigate.
Sync URL Content Harvesting from Issues
When a public team issue contains URLs, automatically run your Apify scraper, collect the data, and reply with results in the thread.
Competitor Research Auto-Logging
When you create a competitor research issue in Linear, it automatically launches market research in Apify without manual triggering.
Automatic Error Diagnosis & Log Retrieval
When you flag an issue with an error label, Notis fetches the relevant Apify actor logs and posts them as a comment for quick diagnosis.

Trigger Types
Four ways to start an automation.
A trigger is the event that kicks a workflow off. Notis supports four kinds: an event in a connected app, an inbound webhook, a schedule (recurring or one-time), and a change in one of your Notis databases.
Integration triggers
Fire when something happens inside a connected app. New Notion page, Stripe charge, Linear issue: any of 1,500+ apps can start a workflow.
New Notion pageStripe chargeCalendar event
Webhook triggers
A unique URL per workflow. Anything that can send an HTTP POST can start an automation, including no-code tools that speak webhooks.

Scheduled triggers
Run a workflow on the clock, on a recurring schedule or once at a set date and time. Daily standups, hourly syncs, a one-off launch reminder: the workhorse of Notis.

Database triggers
Fire when a row in one of your Notis databases is added or edited, with optional filters on its properties. New lead added, status changed, value crosses a limit.

Why AI automation
Classic automation breaks. AI adapts.
Same triggers and actions, smarter middle. AI handles the fuzziness that breaks traditional Zapier-style workflows the moment a field gets renamed.
