Why this helps
A founder can spend hours investigating an isolated metric without noticing a market event affecting traffic or infrastructure.
- Spot external causes faster
- Focus technical investigation on likely factors
- Keep incident notes grounded in current events
Setup
Build it in a few focused steps.
- 1Connect Pingdom and Serpapi to Notis once in the portal.
- 2Create the automation in the portal or ask Notis in plain language.
- 3Use one instruction: when a scheduled Pingdom performance review shows a material regression, search Google News for the product, industry, hosting, and relevant incident terms, then summarize likely context.
- 4Choose a recurring trigger and a channel for run reports.
- 5Run one test with a known slowdown or sample condition.
Questions about this workflow

Your instruction can tell Notis which Pingdom report pattern or threshold should count as material.
