Automate your email with AI
A conversational agent that organizes your inbox, identifies what matters, drafts replies, writes scheduling emails and runs multi-step workflows from a single prompt.
Plain-language AI filters and scripts that automatically label, archive, star or sweep messages so you reach inbox zero faster.
Ask questions in natural language and search across your own messages — or your whole team's emails and attachments — to get answers rather than links.
Shared threads, private comments, assigned next steps and shared labels give a team one live view of important conversations.

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.
