Find out who you are competing with
Finds the companies competing with you from a description of your business, and files a researched profile of each in Notion.
What it does
Each integration step this workflow runs, in order, what it is for, and the conditions and loops that decide when it runs.

How it works
What happens on each run, in plain English.
Every 30 days, what your company sells is turned into a search of a company index for businesses offering something similar. The text of each candidate's own website comes back with the search, a short profile is written from it, and that profile is filed as a new page in a Notion database you own.
You end up with one page per competitor covering what they sell, who they target, their positioning and their claims, with a link to its source page. Each profile is written only from that company's own site: anything the site does not say is marked 'Not stated on their site', and a page too thin to describe is skipped rather than filled in from memory. A company already in the database is never given a second page, your own company is left out by name, and a failure on one company does not stop the others.
Before the first run you need a Notion database shared with your connection. Only its title column is written, so a database of any shape will do.
