AI search and retrieval platform for modern apps and commerce
Deliver keyword, semantic, and hybrid results from a single index, with natural-language query understanding built in.
Create, test, and deploy AI agents, and generate grounded conversational answers via retrieval-augmented generation over your own content.
Use behavioral signals to surface related products and tailor results to each visitor's journey.
Curate category pages, pin or boost items, and track performance in dashboards without engineering support.

The AI workspace where teams and agents get work done together
Combine docs, wikis, projects, and databases into one structured system of record that stays linked as your content grows.
Draft, summarize, translate, and answer questions inline, or build custom agents that automate recurring workflows around the clock.
Find answers instantly across Notion and connected apps, with citations so you can verify where each answer came from.
Use relations, rollups, views, and a large template gallery to model anything from a CRM to a content calendar.
