Why this helps
When exploring new features, you need competitive context but switching between Linear and browser windows breaks your focus
- Capture competitor landing pages instantly when feature ideas arrive
- Build a searchable screenshot library without context-switching
- Share competitor intel with your team as proof-of-concept
Setup
Build it in a few focused steps.
- 1Connect Linear and Browserless to Notis in your account settings (one-time setup)
- 2Create a new automation: 'When a new issue is created, take a screenshot of [competitor URL] and save it'
- 3Set the trigger to 'Issue Created' and specify your feature-planning project
- 4Choose a Slack or email channel for Notis to report when screenshots are captured
- 5Test by creating a feature issue--Notis will auto-capture the competitor screenshot
Questions about this workflow
Will this work with any competitor URL?
Yes--just provide the URL in your automation prompt. Notis will screenshot it every time an issue is created. You can use different URLs for different issue labels.
Can I screenshot multiple competitors at once?
Absolutely. Describe multiple competitors in your plain-language automation prompt, and Notis will capture each one and organize them by URL.
Where do the screenshots go?
Notis saves screenshots to your Notis account and attaches them to the Linear issue. You can also set up automatic sharing to Slack, email, or download them as files.
