Action
Query Data
Tool to query structured data as json from a web page using an agentql query or natural language prompt. use after defining your query or prompt and a url or html.
Why this helps
Founders miss announcements because they don't subscribe to every press outlet. Competitors launch and they find out later through clients.
- Catches competitor announcements before customers mention them
- Keeps you informed without news site fatigue
- Alerts you to market shifts that affect strategy
Setup
Build it in a few focused steps.
- 1Connect Notion and Agentql to Notis.
- 2Create this automation: 'Every Friday at 2pm, scrape PRNewswire, Business Wire, and relevant industry news sites for press releases from [list your competitors and market leaders]. Send me a summary with titles, dates, and key announcements.'
- 3Set trigger to 'Weekly on Friday' and choose your channel (email, Slack, Telegram).
- 4Test manually first to verify the search works, then activate scheduled runs.
- 5Update your competitor list monthly as the market changes.
Questions about this workflow
Can it filter to only major announcements?
Yes - ask Notis to flag 'announcements about funding, M&A, new products, or leadership changes' so you get signal, not noise.
What if a competitor doesn't issue press releases?
Notis will report no releases found for them, but you can also ask it to scan their blog and social media for announcements.
How far back does it look?
Weekly automation looks at the past 7 days. If you want a summary of the past month, run it monthly instead.

Supported Triggers and Actions
Notis builds workflows that link Notion to Agentql. A trigger fires from one place; an action lands in another.

All Page Events
Triggers when any Notion page is created or updated across the workspace.
Create Remote Browser Session
Tool to create a remote browser session. use when you need to run browser automation on remote infrastructure.
Comment Created
Triggers when a new comment is created in Notion. Optional `page_id` filter scopes to comments on a specific page. When omitted, fires for any new comment in the workspace the integration has access to. Requires the 'Read comments' capability on the Notion integration. If a connection was authorized before that capability was enabled, the user must re-authorize the connection for comment events to flow.
New Comment
Triggers when a new comment is added to a specified Notion block or page.
Database Created
Triggers when a new Notion database (the container) is created. A database is the post-2025-09-03 container that holds one or more data sources. This trigger fires for the container's creation event (`database.created`), distinct from `NOTION_DATASOURCE_CREATED` which fires when a new data source is added to an existing database. Most customers calling Notion's `POST /v1/databases` (the legacy API) or creating a database via the Notion UI will see this event. Adding a new data source to an existing database fires `data_source.created` instead — use `NOTION_DATASOURCE_CREATED` for that. Notion's payload puts `entity.type: "block"` (the container is a `child_database` block in the content tree) and `entity.id` is the database id.
Data Source Created
Triggers when a new Notion data source is created. Fires workspace-wide. The payload's `data.parent` carries the data source's tree parent (typically the teamspace) for downstream filtering. A single template-based database creation can fire multiple `data_source.created` events at once — one per data source the template instantiates.
Data Source Schema Updated
Triggers when a Notion data source's schema is updated. Fires on column add / remove / rename. Payload includes `data.updated_properties: [{id, name, action}]` so consumers can discriminate the kind of change downstream. Optional `data_source_id` filter scopes to schema changes on a single data source. When omitted, fires for any schema change in the workspace the integration has access to. Note: adding a column also fires `page.properties_updated` once per existing row in the data source. Customers wanting a single structural-change signal should use this trigger.
