Notion AI is in Alpha

We’ve seen AI do a lot over the past few years, from creating houses out of thin air, to generating weird and wonderful profile images, to becoming your second brain for work.

Now Notion just dropped their latest feature: an AI assistant built directly into your workspace. Notion AI is currently in Alpha, but it can handle quite a lot already. It’s kind of like a new co-worker that lives in Notion and saves you a ton of time or helps you spend it more wisely.

What it can do: Co-Founder Ivan Zhao gave a taste of Notion AI in a demo video, which included summarizing those long Zoom meetings, instant language translation, automatically generating a list of ideas about any topic to get those creative juices flowing, and even being your personal editor.

What we’re watching for: We’ve seen A LOT of AI writers launch over the last few years. What will it mean for them, now that workspaces like Notion are building AI directly into their products? Google, of course, already integrates some AI into your docs (thanks, autocomplete), but it's only a matter of time until we see giants like Google with AI integration at Notion’s scale.

Notion AI is currently using a waitlist but Notion said it's giving people access every day.
