Why this helps
Weekly context doesn't give big picture, month-long effort feels like zero progress when reviewed day by day, momentum invisible
- Big picture visible monthly
- Long work feels like real progress
- Momentum tracking across weeks
- Monthly planning backed by data
Setup
Build it in a few focused steps.
- 1Connect Linear and Carbone to Notis
- 2Ask Notis: 'On the first of every month, generate a monthly summary showing what was shipped, what blocked progress, and what's next'
- 3Notis pulls a month of Linear data, summarizes issues closed, patterns, and blockers
- 4Set the schedule for your preferred date (e.g., first of month) and post to your review channel
- 5Review the monthly summary alongside your weekly summaries to spot trends and see real progress across time
Questions about this workflow
Can monthly summaries compare to previous months?
Yes. Tell Notis to include trend analysis - 'Compare this month's productivity to last month, flag slower/faster areas' and it shows progress patterns.
What if some months are slower than others?
That's normal and visible. The summary will show what slowed things - holidays, projects, blocked work. Context matters more than raw numbers.
Can I use monthly summaries for OKR tracking?
Absolutely. Generate them consistently and you'll have data showing progress toward goals month by month.
