Questions about this workflow
How does Notis know to trigger on stress issues?
You tag issues with a stress marker (e.g., 'stress', 'anxiety', 'overwhelming') and Notis recognizes that trigger.
What kind of station information is calming?
Notis pulls info about station amenities, quiet zones, seating, and accessible features that help create calm.
Is this only for commute-related stress?
No. This can work for any high-stress issue. The transit data serves as a grounding anchor regardless of the issue type.
