Turn weekly goals into spoken check-ins
Make a new goal easier to act on by hearing its purpose and a useful next step.
Trigger
New Page
Triggers when a new page is added to a Notion database.
Action
Text to speech stream
Converts text to a spoken audio stream, allowing latency optimization, specific output formats (some tier-dependent), and custom pronunciations; ensure the chosen model supports text-to-speech and text is preferably under 5000 characters.
Why this helps
Goals can be written with good intentions and then disappear under day-to-day demands.
- Reconnect with why the goal matters.
- Hear a practical next step when the goal is created.
- Keep weekly intentions accessible away from the planning page.
Setup
Build it in a few focused steps.
- 1Connect Notion and ElevenLabs to Notis once through the portal.
- 2Create an automation in the portal or ask Notis in plain language.
- 3Ask Notis in one instruction to create a brief spoken check-in and next-step cue for each new weekly goal.
- 4Select the Notion New Page trigger and choose the report channel.
- 5Add a real weekly goal and evaluate the spoken check-in.
Questions about this workflow
Can this speak a next step as well as the goal?
Yes. Include that in the plain-language automation prompt.
Can it run on an existing goal edit?
This version runs when a new database page is added.

Supported Triggers and Actions
Notis builds workflows that link Notion to Elevenlabs. A trigger fires from one place; an action lands in another.
Notion triggers
Elevenlabs actions
Recurring trigger
Notis starts this workflow on a schedule, such as daily, weekly, or during business hours.
Add a pronunciation dictionary from file
Adds a new pronunciation dictionary from a lexicon file to improve speech synthesis accuracy.
Webhook trigger
Notis starts this workflow when an external tool or custom backend sends an HTTP request.
Add new project with attributes
Use to create a new elevenlabs project for text-to-speech synthesis (e.g., audiobooks); a project `name` is required by the api for creation, and content can be initialized using `from url` or `from document`.
All Page Events
Triggers when any Notion page is created or updated across the workspace.
Add rules to the pronunciation dictionary
Adds one or more custom pronunciation rules (alias or phoneme) to an existing pronunciation dictionary.
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.
Add sharing voice
Adds an existing, shareable voice to a specified user's elevenlabs account library under a new custom name, requiring the user's public id and the voice id.
New Comment
Triggers when a new comment is added to a specified Notion block or page.
Add a voice
Adds a custom voice, requiring a `name` and a `files` list with at least one audio sample, to initiate cloning; returns `voice id` but voice is not immediately usable for synthesis.
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.
Convert chapter to audio
Converts the textual content of a chapter, identified by `chapter id` within a `project id`, into audio format.
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.
Convert a project
Converts an existing elevenlabs studio project, including all its chapters and using its configured settings and voices, into speech.
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.
Create a previously generated voice
Finalizes the creation of a voice using its `generated voice id` from a previous generation step by assigning a name, description, and optional labels.
