Notis

Research competitors from a Telegram message

Send a competitor question in Telegram and let Notis gather relevant search results for your next decision.

Trigger

New Message Received

Triggered when your bot receives a new message in a private chat, group, or supergroup. To receive every message in a group, Privacy Mode must be disabled for the bot in BotFather.

Action

SERP Search

Tool to perform serp (search engine results page) searches across different search engines. use when you need to retrieve search results, trending topics, or competitive analysis data.

Why this helps

Competitor research can sprawl across tabs and interrupt the work you were trying to finish.

  • Start research without opening a search engine or building a manual checklist.
  • Receive findings in the channel you already use to capture questions.
  • Keep competitor discovery focused on the question you asked.

Setup

Build it in a few focused steps.

  • 1Connect Telegram and Brightdata to Notis once through the portal.
  • 2Create an automation in the portal or ask Notis to create one conversationally.
  • 3Use a plain-language instruction to search Brightdata for the competitor and question mentioned in each message, then summarize useful results.
  • 4Select New Message Received as the trigger and choose where Notis should report runs.
  • 5Test with one real competitor question in Telegram.

Questions about this workflow

What should I include in the Telegram message?

Name the competitor and the question you want researched, such as their pricing, positioning, or latest product news.

Will it search every message in a group?

The bot must be able to receive the group messages. Telegram Privacy Mode must be disabled in BotFather if you want it to receive every message.
