Why this helps
Teams remember what they decided but later struggle to recall why, who owns it, or when to revisit it.
- Preserve rationale while the discussion is fresh.
- Make ownership and review timing visible.
- Reduce time spent reconstructing past decisions.
Setup
Build it in a few focused steps.
- 1Connect Slack and Byteforms once through the portal.
- 2Create an automation in the portal or ask Notis conversationally.
- 3Describe in one plain-language instruction which reaction marks a decision and what the form should record.
- 4Select the Slack reaction-added trigger and set a channel for run reports.
- 5Test by reacting to a message that records a real decision.
Questions about this workflow
Does it capture the full discussion?
Notis uses the available Slack event and instruction context; specify what decision details the form should preserve.
Can I use it for every decision?
Use a consistent reaction on decision messages and describe the decisions that warrant a record.
