Start research from a new Notion database
Give a new research database a simple first step by requesting one small batch estimate for a documented sample.
Trigger
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.
Action
Predict Gender Batch
Tool to predict gender for multiple names in a single request. Use when batch gender predictions for several names at once.
Why this helps
New workspaces and databases often begin with setup friction before the first useful research pass happens.
- Turn database setup into a clear research kickoff.
- Reduce the chance a documented sample remains untouched.
- Review a batch result in one report.
Setup
Build it in a few focused steps.
- 1Connect Notion and Genderize to Notis once through the portal.
- 2Create the automation through the portal or by asking Notis in plain language.
- 3Give one instruction to request a batch estimate for up to ten first names explicitly documented for the new research database, then report confidence for review.
- 4Select Database Created as the trigger and choose where run reports should go.
- 5Test by creating one real research database with an explicit sample list available.
Questions about this workflow
Does database creation mean rows already exist?
No. The trigger fires when the database container is created. The instruction should use a separately available, explicitly supplied sample list.
Will it predict individual identities?
It produces probabilistic associations from names. Do not treat them as individual identity facts or use them to make individual decisions.

Supported Triggers and Actions
Notis builds workflows that link Notion to Genderize. A trigger fires from one place; an action lands in another.
Notion triggers
Genderize actions
Recurring trigger
Notis starts this workflow on a schedule, such as daily, weekly, or during business hours.
Predict Gender
Tool to predict gender from a given first name. Use when you need a quick gender estimation possibly localized by country code.
Webhook trigger
Notis starts this workflow when an external tool or custom backend sends an HTTP request.
Predict Gender Batch
Tool to predict gender for multiple names in a single request. Use when batch gender predictions for several names at once.
All Page Events
Triggers when any Notion page is created or updated across the workspace.
Batch Predict Gender with Localization
Tool to predict genders for a batch of names with optional country localization. Use after gathering 1-10 first names when needing localized gender estimates by country.
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.
