Sum Up a Week of User Interviews
For research that piles up faster than anyone reads it. DuckyHelper reads the week's transcripts through Notion's own web API, groups what people said into a few themes, and writes an insights page with real quotes linked back.
“Read this week's interview transcripts in our Notion Research folder and write an insights page with themes and quotes.”

Nothing to send, so it runs straight through.
Nothing in this job sends a message or pays for anything, so it works through to the end and tells you when it's done. If a step ever would, it's built to stop and ask you first.
If it hits a sign-in, you sign in yourself. It's built not to type your passwords or card numbers.
Do it once. Then let it repeat.
When it's done, it offers to keep doing it: every Monday at 9:00 AM. Each run goes through the API it learned the first time, so it's quick, and it's still built to ask before it sends or pays.
Always-on automations are in early access on Mac.
Before you ask it.
What do I say?
Press fn (Ctrl+Shift+Space on Windows and Linux) and ask out loud, in your own words, like "Read this week's interview transcripts in our Notion Research folder and write an insights page with themes and quotes."
Why is the second time faster?
The first time, it writes small JavaScript tools for Notion and builds an API from each site's own buttons, forms and requests. After that it calls them directly, so the job runs in one go instead of click by click. It costs less and breaks less.
Will it send anything without me?
It's built to ask first before it sends a message or pays for anything, and to wait for your yes. It may not recognize every send or payment, so keep an eye on tasks that involve messages or money. It's built not to type your passwords or card numbers: you sign in yourself, and it picks up from there.
Why not just do it by hand?
Interviews are gold, but turning ten transcripts into findings is a day of reading and sticky notes.
Can it keep doing this on its own?
Yes. When it's done it offers to make it automatic (every Monday at 9:00 AM). Each run goes the same way and is still built to ask before it sends or pays.
