Turn Feedback Into Organized Issue Comments
When team members send you feedback in DMs, it's scattered and easy to lose. Notis automatically attaches that feedback to the relevant Linear issue so it stays organized.
Trigger
Direct Message Received
Triggered when a new direct message (DM) is sent to a user in Slack. Catches all DMs across all DM channels.
Action
Create a comment
Creates a new comment on a specified linear issue.
Why this helps
Feedback arrives through informal channels (DMs, quick Slack messages) but never makes it into the formal tracking system, leaving neurodivergent founders managing context in their head.
- Capture feedback in the moment without asking people to log into Linear
- Automatically attach feedback to the correct issue
- Build a comprehensive record of all input on a topic
- Reduce friction in the feedback process
Setup
Build it in a few focused steps.
- 1Connect Slack and Linear to Notis.
- 2Ask Notis: 'When someone sends me a DM with feedback, add it to the Linear issue I mention' or use the portal.
- 3Provide the prompt: 'When I receive a DM, check if it mentions a Linear issue ID. If it does, add the DM content as a comment to that issue.'
- 4Test by sending Notis a DM that mentions an issue ID and verify the comment appears.
Questions about this workflow
What if the feedback doesn't mention an issue ID?
You can configure Notis to prompt you for the issue, or to save it to a default location for manual sorting.
Does this preserve the sender's name?
Yes. Notis includes attribution so you know who provided the feedback.
Can I batch multiple DMs into one comment?
Notis creates one comment per message by default, but you can customize this in your prompt if needed.
