Notion is a productivity and note-taking web application developed by Notion Labs, Inc. It is an online-only organizational tool with a freemium subscription model. It is headquartered in San Francisco.
Software
[edit]Notion is a collaboration platform with Markdown and includes kanban boards, tasks, wikis and databases. It serves as a workspace for notetaking, knowledge management, data organization, and project and task tracking.[2] It is accessable via cross-platform apps and most web browsers.[3]
Notion uses AI and a library of free and fee-based templates. Notion AI assists users in writing and improving content, summarizing existing notes, adjusting tone, and translating or checking text.[4][5][6]
History
[edit]Notion Labs, Inc. was created as a startup in San Francisco, California, founded in 2013 by Ivan Zhao, Chris Prucha, Jessica Lam, Simon Last, and Toby Schachman.[7]
In August 2016, Notion 1.0 was released, followed by Notion 2.0 in March 2018. At that point, the company had fewer than 10 employees.[8]
In September 2019, the company announced it had reached 1 million users.[9]
In January 2020, Notion received $50 million in investments from Index Ventures and others.[9] It was valued at two billion dollars later that year.[10]
In October 2021, a new round of funding led by Coatue Management and Sequoia Capital helped Notion raise $275 million. The investment valued Notion at $10 billion, and the company had 20 million users.[11]
In February 2023, Notion released the "Notion AI" service that can be used on the workspace,[12] and later added an AI feature allowing users to query an AI chatbot, and receive answers based on information stored in their workspace.
In April 2025 they released Notion Mail, a Gmail-based email client with Notion AI integration, intended to assist users draft replies, schedule meetings, and search across messages .[13]
Pricing
[edit]Notion has a four tiered subscription model: Free, Plus, Business, and Enterprise.[14] Notion also offers a free student plan called "Notion for education".[15]
