Give each new idea a useful first review

A quick, repeatable screen can help you decide whether an idea needs exploration, a small experiment, or a parking spot.

Trigger

New Page

Triggers when a new page is added to a Notion database.

Action

Execute Code

Execute python code in a sandbox and return any result, stdout, stderr, and error. use /home/user folder to write/read files. try to not use plt.show() as the code is executed remotely. use files for image/chart output instead.

Why this helps

Capturing ideas is easy, but deciding what to do with them can create a growing pile of unresolved possibilities.

  • Apply the same first-pass questions to each idea.
  • Expose assumptions and missing evidence.
  • Choose a next step without overanalyzing every possibility.

Setup

Build it in a few focused steps.

  • 1Connect Notion and Codeinterpreter to Notis once.
  • 2Create an Idea feasibility review automation.
  • 3Use one instruction asking Codeinterpreter to assess each new idea page against your chosen criteria and list assumptions and open questions.
  • 4Select New Page for the ideas data source and choose a report channel.
  • 5Test with one real idea and adjust the criteria if needed.

Questions about this workflow

Should the score decide which ideas to pursue?

Use it as a consistent prompt for judgment, not a substitute for founder context.

Can the criteria change?

Yes. Update the plain-language instruction with the criteria that fit your business.

Supported Triggers and Actions

Notis builds workflows that link Notion to Codeinterpreter. A trigger fires from one place; an action lands in another.

Notion triggers

Codeinterpreter actions

Recurring trigger

Notis starts this workflow on a schedule, such as daily, weekly, or during business hours.

TriggerScheduled

Create Sandbox

Create a sandbox to execute python code in a jupyter notebook cell. this is useful for agents to communicate, execute code, see output, read files, write files, etc. it's like you own personal computer, but in the cloud. use /home/user folder to write/read files.

ActionInstant

Webhook trigger

Notis starts this workflow when an external tool or custom backend sends an HTTP request.

TriggerInstant

Execute Code

Execute python code in a sandbox and return any result, stdout, stderr, and error. use /home/user folder to write/read files. try to not use plt.show() as the code is executed remotely. use files for image/chart output instead.

ActionInstant

All Page Events

Triggers when any Notion page is created or updated across the workspace.

TriggerPolling

Get File

Get a file from the sandbox and returns the file. the files should be read from /home/user folder.

ActionInstant

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.

TriggerInstant

Run Terminal Command

Run a command in the terminal and returns the stdout, stderr, and error code. use /home/user folder to write/read files.

ActionInstant

New Comment

Triggers when a new comment is added to a specified Notion block or page.

TriggerPolling

Upload File

Upload a file to the sandbox environment. the files should be uploaded to the /home/user folder.

ActionInstant

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.

TriggerInstant

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.

TriggerInstant

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.
