About Notion
Notion is turning itself into the place teams and their AI agents share one board.
Notion has moved well past docs-and-databases into an agent platform. Its 3.5 and 3.6 releases stood up a full developer platform — a hosted Workers runtime, a CLI, and an External Agents API — then wired Claude, Cursor, and Codex into shared boards where teammates can @-mention them. AI Meeting Notes with speaker labels, Microsoft file read/write, and Outlook control round out a workspace being rebuilt around agents doing real work.
