Notion
FeaturedAll-in-one workspace for notes, docs, and collaboration
About Notion
Notion is the connected workspace where better, faster work happens. It brings together your notes, documents, wikis, projects, and databases into one unified platform that adapts to the way you work. Unlike traditional tools that force you into rigid structures, Notion gives you building blocks to create exactly what you need. Start with a blank page and add text, images, code blocks, databases, kanban boards, calendars, or embed content from hundreds of other apps. Teams use Notion to replace scattered tools like Google Docs, Trello, Confluence, and Asana with a single workspace. Everything lives in one place, making it easy to find information and keep everyone aligned. The real-time collaboration features let multiple people edit simultaneously, with comments and mentions to keep discussions in context. Notion's database system is particularly powerful. Create tables, boards, timelines, calendars, or galleries - all views of the same underlying data. Link databases together to build complex systems like CRMs, product roadmaps, or content calendars without touching a spreadsheet. The template gallery offers hundreds of pre-built setups for common workflows, from meeting notes to OKR tracking. Or create your own templates to standardize processes across your team.
