Never Forget About All-Day Events or Blockers

All-day events are easy to overlook because they don't have a specific start time. Notis sends a morning Slack reminder of any all-day events today, company holidays, or personal blockers, so you navigate the day with full context.

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

ADHD time-blindness makes all-day events particularly easy to miss. They don't trigger at a specific moment, so they fade from awareness. Missing a company-wide event or forgetting that today is a holiday creates social awkwardness or scheduling failures.

  • Know about company-wide events without checking your calendar
  • Remember that today is a holiday or special day
  • Adjust your schedule around full-day commitments
  • Prevent scheduling mistakes due to forgotten blockers

Setup

Build it in a few focused steps.

  • 1Connect Google Calendar and Slack to Notis.
  • 2Create an automation called 'Daily All-Day Events Reminder'.
  • 3Write this prompt: 'Every morning at 8am, send me a Slack message listing any all-day events, company holidays, or full-day time blocks on my calendar for today. Include what they are and any relevant context.'
  • 4Set the trigger to 'Recurring Schedule' for daily at 8am.
  • 5Choose a Slack channel (your personal DM).
  • 6Verify the reminder arrives tomorrow morning.

Questions about this workflow

What if there are no all-day events today?

Notis will send a note confirming your day is clear of all-day commitments.

Should I exclude personal all-day events?

Tell Notis: 'Include work and team all-day events but skip personal or recurring time blocks like Birthdays.'

Can I get this at a different time?

Yes. Tell Notis: 'Send at 7am' or 'Send at 10am' depending on your preference.
