Ways Notis can move work from Telegram to Affinda
Send candidate resumes from Telegram to Affinda
Forward a resume received in Telegram to Affinda for parsing, helping founders keep candidate documents moving without opening a separate intake routine.
Start contract parsing from a Telegram handoff
Send a contract to your Telegram bot and have Notis create an Affinda document for parsing, keeping an important review item from being stranded in chat.
Capture policy documents posted to a Telegram channel
When an administrator bot sees a new channel post with a policy document or public link, Notis can create an Affinda document for parsing.
Create Affinda tags from Telegram filing requests
Send a clear filing request in Telegram and have Notis create a reusable Affinda tag, making it easier to keep document labels consistent.
Record a document review decision from a Telegram button
Use an inline button tap to record a validation result in Affinda after a document has been reviewed, keeping the decision out of a separate manual log.
Keep an Affinda document name aligned with an edited Telegram message
When you correct a document note in a Telegram message, have Notis update the related Affinda document details so the current name is easier to find.
Correct parsed resume data from a Telegram note
Send a clear correction for a parsed resume in Telegram and have Notis update its structured resume data in Affinda, reducing repeated cleanup.
Parse job descriptions shared in a Telegram channel
Have Notis create Affinda documents for job descriptions shared in a channel, so useful role details reach your hiring workspace without a manual capture loop.

Trigger Types
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 schedule (recurring or one-time), and a change in one of your Notis databases.
Integration triggers
Fire when something happens inside a connected app. New Notion page, Stripe charge, Linear issue: any of 1,500+ apps can start a workflow.
New Notion pageStripe chargeCalendar event
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.

Scheduled triggers
Run a workflow on the clock, on a recurring schedule or once at a set date and time. Daily standups, hourly syncs, a one-off launch reminder: the workhorse of Notis.

Why AI automation
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.
