Keep a simple monthly baseline for the law you monitor
A recurring count gives you a lightweight way to notice when the size of a collection you follow changes.
Trigger
Recurring schedule
Notis starts this workflow on a schedule, such as daily, weekly, or during business hours.
Action
Count Sections in Scope
Count the law sections in a jurisdiction, corpus, code, title, chapter, or part.
Why this helps
It is easy to lose track of whether a monitored legal collection has expanded or shifted between research sessions.
- Creates a repeatable count for selected legal scopes.
- Makes changes in collection size easier to spot over time.
- Avoids re-running a setup search just to establish a baseline.
Setup
Build it in a few focused steps.
- 1Connect Prisma and Vaquill to Notis once through the portal.
- 2Create an automation in the portal or ask Notis conversationally to create one.
- 3Use one plain-language prompt to count sections in the code, jurisdiction, or corpus you want to monitor.
- 4Choose a recurring monthly trigger and a channel for run reports, then test with one real scope.
Questions about this workflow
Which scopes can be counted?
The action can count sections in a jurisdiction, corpus, code, title, chapter, or part.
Does a changed count explain what changed in the law?
No. A count is a size signal, not a summary of legal changes. Use a separate research step to understand any change.
