After embracing calendar apps earlier this year, Notion is ready to tackle emails with a fully customizable app launching next year. Like other Notion tools, the company says Mail will “distill email down to its basic components,” allowing you to create an inbox with views, layouts, and actions tailored to your preferences.
You can also use Notion ai to automatically organize, archive, or draft emails based on a message. Its ai can schedule meetings for you through integration with Notion's Calendar app, as well as help you quickly write personalized emails using “one-click snippets.” The Mail application bears some resemblance to Skiff, the secure email service Notion acquired in February..
Notion plans to launch its Mail app in “early 2025” and will integrate with Google and Gmail accounts at launch. It will also be available on iPhone and Android devices. The Notion Mail app is currently in preview, but you can join the waitlist to get access from Notion Website.
In addition to a new mail application, Notion launched a new Forms tool which you can use to collect responses, much like Google Forms. Notion is also rolling out more ways to customize layouts and new automation that will let you notify people via Gmail. Notion also launched an update to its marketplace, where people can sell and buy Notion templates.
As my colleague David Pierce pointed out earlier this year, Notion wants to become the only productivity app a company needs to get all of its tasks done. Now that it's about emails, maybe a presentation app is next.
