Then type “Now turn this into a grocery list” and just like that, hours of your life—saved!

Still paying for a subscription you no longer use and should have cancelled months ago? Notion’s AI features can make this a thing of the past.

You can keep tabs on plenty more in Notion, too. The app’s AI capabilities and neat UI make it a fantastic companion for storing and tracking all sorts of information, like to-do lists, schedules, and goals.

Step away from your inbox for a few days and emails usually arrive in droves. When urgent ones pile up and a blank reply screen is staring back at you, head to Claude to create a quick, eloquent reply.

Type a prompt containing the context, your relationship with the recipient, and the tone you’re after—need something warm and friendly, or diplomatic and direct?—and the AI assistant will generate a natural-sounding response ready for you to check and send.
