Keep a living Notion record of every automation you run

Automatically syncs details of your automations into Notion so you always know what's running and who owns it.

How the work actually flows

A straight line. Runs once per each tagged automation.

Pattern: Multiple Instances without Synchronization (12)

The problem it solves

As you build out more automations, it gets hard to remember what each one does, who owns it, or whether it's still working. Without a central record, tracking down the right automation when something breaks means digging through tools instead of just checking a list.

Who it fits

Operations teams or business owners running many automations who need a single source of truth.

How it works

  1. On a set schedule, the automation checks for tagged workflows
  2. Details like status, owner, and last update are pulled for each one
  3. A matching record is created or updated in Notion
  4. You get a current, searchable list of every automation and its status
What you get

Automations you can find the status of at a glance

You keep a current, searchable record of every automation running in your business, along with its status and who owns it.

What you get

An up-to-date Notion database listing every automation, its owner, and its status.

What you need

An automation platform account with API access, and a Notion account.

We can build this. But should you?

The hard question is not how to build it. It is whether this is the right thing to build first.
