Schedule Weekly Music Discovery Sessions
Every Thursday, Notis reminds you in Slack to spend 30 minutes discovering new music and updating your playlists. Discovery stays part of your rhythm.
Trigger
Recurring schedule
Notis starts this workflow on a schedule, such as daily, weekly, or during business hours.
Action
Create a reminder
Creates a slack reminder with specified text and time; time accepts unix timestamps, seconds from now, or natural language (e.g., 'in 15 minutes', 'every thursday at 2pm').
Why this helps
Neurodivergent founders deprioritize music curation because it's not urgent, leading to stale playlists and missed discovery.
- Build music discovery into your weekly routine without willpower
- Stay connected to new music and collaborative updates
- Create accountability for playlist maintenance
- Block time for creative listening and exploration
