Notis

Listen to channel updates when reading is hard

Notis can send a new channel message to Jigsawstack text to speech and report the generated audio for listening later.

Trigger

Channel Message Received

Triggered when a message is posted in a Slack channel (public, private, or multi-party IM). Does NOT match direct messages.

Action

Text to Speech

Tool to convert text to natural-sounding speech. Use when you need to generate an audio file from text input.

Why this helps

Reading every update can be difficult during transitions, low-focus moments, or time away from a screen.

  • Listen instead of opening another text thread
  • Catch up during a screen-free moment
  • Make selected updates easier to revisit

Setup

Build it in a few focused steps.

  • 1Connect Slack and Jigsawstack to Notis once in the portal.
  • 2Create an automation in the portal or ask Notis to turn new messages in a chosen channel into speech.
  • 3Give one plain-language instruction to convert the incoming message text to audio and report how to access the result.
  • 4Choose Channel Message Received as the trigger and select a run-report channel.
  • 5Test with one real message that is appropriate to listen to.

Questions about this workflow

Does this summarize long messages?

The configured Jigsawstack action converts text to speech. It does not summarize the text.

Can I listen to direct messages with this trigger?

No. This workflow uses the channel message trigger, which excludes direct messages.
