Notion , as my colleagues at TechCrunch lift out earlier Thursday , is announcing an email client at its first “ Make with Notion”user group discussion . For now , Notion Mail is in trailer , and at least for the clip being , it ’s more of a Gmail client than a traditional email avail . The mind here , Notion says , is to build an email experience that allows users “ to ditch the old ways of a rigid inbox and encompass a newfangled way of life : where e-mail go for you and your workflow . ”
When exactly Notion Mail will launch , though , is still a question sucker . The caller is only charge to “ before long ” at this pointedness , but there is a waitlist for get early access .
With add together Mail , Notion ( which state it now has over 100 million users ) continues on its path to provide a more fully featured cortege of productivity options . The launch of Notion Mail , after all , comes only a few months after the company launched itsCalendar product . Notion Calendar , it ’s deserving noting , was the Cartesian product of an acquirement , with the company buying calendar app Cron in 2022 .
Similarly , Notion recentlyacquired Skiff , a security - centrical platform that also include an end - to - death write in code email service . It does n’t hail as a surprise , then , that Notion Mail is taking some design cues from Skiff , but the company ’s focus here is n’t so much on security department ( though I ’m sure that ’s top of nous for Notion as well ) but an integration with Notion AI .
There seem to be two part to the AI integration here : automatically organizing your emails by using an AI command prompt as a form of smart filtering mechanism ( think “ tag all recruiting emails by stage and show the part ” ) , as well as the ability to get “ Notion AI cover the tedious back - and - forth such as scheduling and follow - ups , ” the society said . How well that works in practice remains to be take in .
One nice feature Notion Mail will declare oneself that I often bid Gmail would is that it does n’t just allow for using different filters , but also allow you to prioritize email inside of those filtered position . Gmail , on the other mitt , only volunteer the “ priority inbox ” view in the main inbox , but when you drill down to any of its default categories like forums , updates , or societal , your only selection is a reverse timeline sentiment .
Another desegregation worth highlight is with Notion Calendar . exploiter will be able to add a scheduling clit to their emails that links them mightily to their calendar and accessibility .

Notion is also launching some improved automation features , admit the ability to connect Notion and Gmail to , for example , notify people via Gmail . And , to round all of this out , Notion has update its Marketplace with a redesign WWW experience .
