Ways Notis can move work from Notion to World News API
Get a daily top-news brief before you open your first Notion tab
Every morning, Notis pulls the clustered top headlines for your country and language so you start the day already caught up instead of doom-scrolling for context.
Pull top headlines the moment you add a topic to your research database
Add a new row to your Notion research database and Notis instantly gathers the top clustered news for that market so the topic arrives with context attached.
Turn every article link you drop into Notion into a clean structured summary
Create a page with a news URL and Notis extracts the article into structured data, title, text, authors, date, and sentiment, so you never re-open the tab to remember what it said.
Extract any news article you drop in a Notion comment into structured data
Paste a URL in a Notion comment during a discussion and Notis quietly extracts the full article, so teammates get the substance without leaving the thread.
Refresh market headlines whenever you flag a Notion record to monitor
Flip a status property to Monitor and Notis fetches the top news for that market, so tracking a company or region takes one click instead of a manual search.
Scan a competitor newsroom for new article links every Monday
On a weekly schedule, Notis crawls a competitor's press page for all article links so you spot their announcements without babysitting their newsroom.
Resolve map coordinates automatically when you log a place in Notion
Add a location to your Notion database and Notis fetches its latitude and longitude, ready to power location-filtered news searches without a manual lookup.
Turn any news site you save into a clean RSS feed automatically
Add a source subpage under your Sources page in Notion and Notis converts that news site into an RSS feed, so following it is one paste instead of a hunt for a feed URL.
Check if a news source is monitored the moment you add it to Notion
Add a source to your Notion sources database and Notis checks whether World News API already tracks it, so you know if it belongs in your automated coverage.

Four ways to start an automation.
A trigger is the event that kicks a workflow off. Notis supports four kinds: an event in a connected app, an inbound webhook, a schedule (recurring or one-time), and a change in one of your Notis databases.
Integration triggers
Fire when something happens inside a connected app. New Notion page, Stripe charge, Linear issue: any of 1,500+ apps can start a workflow.
Webhook triggers
A unique URL per workflow. Anything that can send an HTTP POST can start an automation, including no-code tools that speak webhooks.
Scheduled triggers
Run a workflow on the clock, on a recurring schedule or once at a set date and time. Daily standups, hourly syncs, a one-off launch reminder: the workhorse of Notis.
Database triggers
Fire when a row in one of your Notis databases is added or edited, with optional filters on its properties. New lead added, status changed, value crosses a limit.
Classic automation breaks. AI adapts.
Same triggers and actions, smarter middle. AI handles the fuzziness that breaks traditional Zapier-style workflows the moment a field gets renamed.
Describe it. Notis builds it.
Skip the visual builder. Tell Notis what you want, in plain English. It writes the workflow, you review and deploy.
You · in the Notis Builder
