Make Every Screenshot Searchable
Screenshots contain important context but hide information in an unsearchable image. Notis extracts all text from screenshots when issues are filed, making everything findable and accessible.
Trigger
Issue Created Trigger
Triggered when a new issue is created.
Action
ASTICA_READ_TEXT
Tool to perform ocr on an image to extract text. use when you need to read raw text from images after confirming the image source.
Why this helps
Teams file issues with only screenshots, which aren't searchable, accessible to screen readers, or referenceable in future work. This creates a blind spot where critical information stays locked in images.
- All screenshot info becomes searchable text
- Accessible to team members using screen readers
- Create permanent text records from visuals
- Speed up future issue searches and reference
Setup
Build it in a few focused steps.
- 1Connect Linear and Astica AI to Notis via the portal (one-time setup).
- 2Create a new automation: 'When a new issue is created with image attachments, extract all text from the screenshots.'
- 3Select 'Issue Created' as the trigger.
- 4Choose your reporting channel (Slack or email) where Notis will send extracted text and the issue link.
- 5File a test issue with a screenshot and verify Notis extracts the text accurately.
Questions about this workflow
Will this extract text from all screenshots, or only specific ones?
By default, all images attached to new issues. You can refine the automation to specific projects or teams if you only want extraction in certain contexts.
What happens to handwritten text in screenshots?
Astica AI's OCR handles both printed and handwritten text. Handwriting accuracy depends on legibility, just like manual reading.
Can extracted text be automatically added to the issue description?
Yes. When you create the automation, ask Notis to 'append the extracted text as a comment' or 'add it to the issue description' and Notis will handle the formatting.
