- Create a durable record of client agreements
- Support consistent delivery and handoffs
- Reduce uncertainty about what was decided
Setup
Build it in a few focused steps.
- 1Connect Slack and Basecamp to Notis once in the portal.
- 2Create an automation in the portal or ask Notis in plain language.
- 3Tell Notis to publish clearly confirmed client decisions from the relevant Slack channel as a concise Basecamp vault document.
- 4Choose the channel message trigger and a channel for run reports, then test with one real client decision.
