Thank you @benln for the hunt!
Weβre a trio of best friends who recently started building projects together. We love Notion, and believe automation is key to productivity.
We felt existing solutions are too hard to set up, and can get expensive quickly! We built the:gist to help make Notion more useful for important needs like tasks, CRM, and hiring.
How is the:gist different?
1. Do more: if you can write a formula for it, you can automate it (others don't monitor formulas!)
2. Keep it simple: no more elaborate scenarios/zaps.
3. Spend less: we only charge you per trigger (when something useful happens).
Popular use cases:
- π€ Auto-generate page titles, based on property values
- π₯ CRM reminders: get notified in Slack when it's time to nurture a lead or contact
- β Create recurring tasks
- π€ Hiring: automate emails to candidates as they move in the funnel
- π Great for agencies: get notifications in customer-specific Slack channels
Need ideas for what to automate?
Tell us how you use Notion in the comments below π
And we will suggest useful automations for you πͺ

Easily my favourite supporting tool in my work designing custom Notion workspaces. the:gist has helped me overcome some of the biggest limitations of Notion and enabled a new level of automation I'd been dreaming about. Congrats on the product, it's a game changer!
Love that you built a solution for a very real need that you both observed and personally experienced. I'm not a Notion user (yet?) but it seems that you've added real value to the service.
This really feels like a notion product to me (and my team), rather than a 3rd party tool. I can honestly say that it has massively helped us to improve our communications throughout our team - because it helps us to automate much of the stuff that humans tend to forget to do.
I could not rate the:gist any more highly than I do.
Also, I have had such excellent interactions with @danpeguine and @eladmallel who has been waaaay more accommodating to our questions than he should have been.
If you love Notion as I do, then you should be using the:gist, in my humble opinion. It genuinely takes it to another level.
I've been using The:Gist for a couple of months now and it's a total game changer. Being able to trigger automations when a change is made to a page is such a key feature and I'm so glad that these guys have figured out how to do it. I've already created several automations like setting up email notifications, setting up recurring tasks, rescheduling overdue tasks and sending e-signature agreements, when a checkbox is ticked. Every Notion user should check out this service.
@aplssf Thank you Alex for helping us figure out what this tool should be from day one! It's thanks to your feedback that a lot of product decisions were made!
