Share Project Updates With Stakeholders Instantly
Your team posts a project update in Linear, but your board and investors aren't monitoring it. You end up rewriting the same update in email form. Notis reads the update and drafts an email for stakeholders—just review and send.
Trigger
Project Update Posted
Fires when a project status update is posted on the Linear project's Updates tab. Covers projects in both public and private teams — polls with the connected user's token.
Action
Create email draft
Creates a gmail email draft, supporting to/cc/bcc, subject, plain/html body (ensure `is html=true` for html), attachments, and threading.
Why this helps
Information lives in different places. Stakeholders miss important updates because they're buried in a tool they don't use. You become the communication bottleneck.
- Draft captures the full project update without you retyping
- Stakeholders get real-time progress without accessing Linear
- Reduces the communication lag between team and leadership
- You stay in control—review and send, don't auto-send
Setup
Build it in a few focused steps.
- 1Connect Linear and Gmail to Notis.
- 2Create an automation: 'When a project update is posted in Linear, draft an email summarizing it for my stakeholders.'
- 3Tell Notis who the stakeholders are and what tone to use (formal for board, friendly for team, etc.).
- 4Test by posting a project update in Linear; check that a draft appears in Gmail.
- 5Review, tweak if needed, and send—stakeholders now get the update without duplicating the work.
Questions about this workflow
Does the draft include the full project update?
Yes. Notis pulls the update text, timeline, blockers, and next steps into the draft. You can edit if you want to add context for specific recipients.
What if I post multiple updates in a week?
Notis drafts each one. You can batch them into one weekly email or send them individually—your choice.
Can I choose different recipients based on the update?
Yes. You can say 'Progress updates go to the team; blockers go to the CEO.' Notis routes each draft to the right people.
