One emoji, your whole FreshBooks project list
You spot a message that raises a billing question, tap a reaction, and Notis pulls your live FreshBooks projects into the thread. It is the lowest-friction way to check your work without breaking flow.

Why this helps

- Stay in the conversation instead of opening billing
- Turn a passing thought into an instant, accurate answer

- 3Write the plain-language prompt: when I add my chosen reaction to a message, list my FreshBooks projects and reply in Slack.

Questions about this workflow
Can I use a specific emoji?
Yes. The reaction trigger supports filtering by emoji, so you can reserve one just for this.
Do I need to type anything?
No typing needed. The reaction itself is the trigger, so the whole flow is one tap.
