Scan and Protect Your Weekly Deep Work Blocks

Disruption is predictable. Find your free blocks before they disappear.

Action

Find free slots

Finds free/busy time slots in google calendars for specified calendars within a defined time range (defaults to the current day utc if `time min`/`time max` are omitted), enhancing busy intervals with event details; `time min` must precede `time max` if both are provided.

Why this helps

By Wednesday, your deep work intentions have been scattered into fragments. Manually identifying your largest uninterrupted blocks is a task you skip. Without protected time, strategic work never gets done.

  • Identify and protect your best work hours proactively
  • Prevent your calendar from fragmenting into chaos
  • Enable 2-3 hours of genuine deep work weekly
  • Reduce decision fatigue around scheduling priorities

Setup

Build it in a few focused steps.

  • 1Connect Google Calendar to Notis.
  • 2Create an automation: 'Every Monday morning, scan my calendar and show me my three largest free blocks this week, then suggest blocking 2 hours for deep work in the biggest one.'
  • 3Set the trigger to 'Weekly Schedule' (or adjust frequency) and choose your notification channel.
  • 4Review the suggestions Monday morning, adjust as needed, and Notis will block the time.

Questions about this workflow

Can I exclude certain hours?

Yes. Say 'Scan only Monday to Thursday, 9am to 5pm, excluding lunch.' Notis respects your boundaries.

What counts as a free block?

Notis searches for uninterrupted calendar time. You can define minimum duration: 'Find blocks of 90 minutes or longer.'

Can this integrate with my work-life balance?

Absolutely. Specify 'Don't block time before 10am or after 5pm' or 'Leave Friday afternoons free.' Notis protects your schedule holistically.
