Ways Notis can move work from Slack to Exist
Check project momentum against your patterns
When a Slack channel update signals a project milestone or slowdown, fetch recent Exist correlations to surface relevant personal patterns.
Review your focus attributes when priorities shift
Use a Slack channel update to retrieve your Exist attribute list and identify which tracked attributes may be useful to review as priorities change.
Add personal context to a decision DM
When a Slack DM asks for a decision, retrieve recent Exist correlations so the response can include a quick, relevant personal-pattern check.
Review available templates at a new team ritual
When a Slack channel announces a new recurring ritual, fetch Exist attribute templates to see what tracking options are available for a deliberate review.
Reflect on patterns after a team celebration
When a Slack message receives a celebration reaction, fetch recent Exist correlations to support a short reflection on what helped the win happen.
See tracked signals during a workload check-in
When a Slack channel starts a workload check-in, retrieve your Exist attributes so you can choose which personal signals to consider.
Review personal correlations once a week
On a weekly schedule, fetch recent Exist correlations and receive a short prompt to reflect on recurring patterns alongside your Slack week.
Check your Exist preferences when priorities feel unclear
When a Slack DM signals uncertainty about what to prioritize, retrieve your Exist profile details and preferences as a cue for a personal check-in.
Review tracked attributes when delegating work
When a Slack channel assigns or delegates work, retrieve your Exist attributes as a prompt to check the personal signals that support your workload planning.

Four ways to start an automation.
A trigger is the event that kicks a workflow off. Notis supports four kinds: an event in a connected app, an inbound webhook, a recurring schedule, and soon, your own database.
Integration triggers
Fire when something happens inside a connected app. New Notion page, Stripe charge, Linear issue: any of 1,000+ apps can start a workflow.
Webhook triggers
A unique URL per workflow. Anything that can send an HTTP POST can start an automation, including no-code tools that speak webhooks.
Recurring triggers
Cron-style schedules run a workflow on the clock. Daily standups, hourly syncs, business-hours-only digests: the workhorse of Notis.
Database triggers
Watch a row, query, or threshold in your own database and fire the moment the data changes. Row inserted, value crosses a limit, query starts matching.
Classic automation breaks. AI adapts.
Same triggers and actions, smarter middle. AI handles the fuzziness that breaks traditional Zapier-style workflows the moment a field gets renamed.
Describe it. Notis builds it.
Skip the visual builder. Tell Notis what you want, in plain English. It writes the workflow, you review and deploy.
