Start Every Day With Meeting Context
Begin your day grounded and prepared. Notis sends a morning Slack summary of all your meetings, attendees, and links, so you're never caught context-switching between calls.
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
Many neurodivergent founders experience decision fatigue and context-switching anxiety. Without a morning briefing, they enter the day reactive, scrambling between meetings without time to prepare mentally or logistically.
- Mental preparation time before high-intensity meeting days
- Reduce context-switching chaos throughout the day
- Spot overlapping or back-to-back meetings early
- Allocate prep time proportional to meeting importance
Setup
Build it in a few focused steps.
- 1Connect Google Calendar and Slack to Notis.
- 2Create an automation called 'Morning Meeting Prep'.
- 3Set this prompt: 'Every weekday at 7:30am, send me a Slack message with all my meetings for that day. Include titles, times, attendees, and any Zoom links. Format it so I can quickly see which meetings are back-to-back and which have prep time.'
- 4Set the trigger to 'Recurring Schedule' for weekdays at 7:30am.
- 5Choose a Slack channel (your personal DM).
- 6Verify the summary arrives the next morning.
Questions about this workflow
Can I change the time to fit my schedule?
Yes. Tell Notis: 'Send my morning summary at 6am' or 'at 10am.'
What if I have no meetings on a particular day?
Notis will send a note saying your day is clear, which is helpful to know.
Can I include prep notes for each meeting?
Tell Notis: 'If a meeting has notes in the calendar event description, include them in the summary.'
