Action

Why this helps

Competitor conversations can turn into unstructured speculation when nobody has time to check the company profile.

  • Anchor a competitor conversation in a company profile lookup.
  • Keep the lookup result associated with the Slack discussion.
  • Make it easier to decide whether a deeper comparison is worthwhile.

Setup

Build it in a few focused steps.

  • 1Connect Slack and Bigpicture io to Notis once through the portal.
  • 2Create an automation with a prompt to look up a confirmed competitor domain in Bigpicture io when it is shared in a channel message, then report the profile and message link.
  • 3Pick the Slack Channel Message Received trigger.
  • 4Choose a channel for run reports, then test with a real competitor domain.

Questions about this workflow

Can this find a competitor's website from its name?

This workflow is for a confirmed website domain. Use a name-to-domain search when only the competitor name is available.

Does the profile itself establish that a company is a competitor?

No. The workflow looks up the domain shared in Slack; the team should assess whether the company is relevant to its competitive landscape.
