Filing radar: instant Slack alert when a watch-list company files something high-signal

When a research card crosses a high strategic-signal threshold, posts a formatted alert to a Slack channel so the team sees competitive moves in real time.

What it does

Closes the loop between detection and action. Whenever a new patent or filing research card is scored high-signal, this workflow fires an alert into Slack with the company, the gist, the score, and a link — so a meaningful competitor move reaches the team in minutes rather than sitting in a database.

When to use it

Pair this with any of your filing-collection workflows when you want low-volume, high-importance interrupts: only the filings that actually change your thinking should ping the channel.

How it works

  1. 1A new high-scored research card in Airtable triggers the run.
  2. 2A logic step checks the strategic-signal score against your threshold and exits quietly if it's below.
  3. 3OpenAI drafts a tight Slack message — headline, one-line implication, recommended watcher.
  4. 4The alert posts to the designated Slack channel with the source filing link and an emoji-coded signal tag.
