Developers: we’re opening up an early alpha for custom blocks.
It’s a new Notion primitive for building interactive blocks that can read your workspaces and databases.
Very early, very experimental, and we’d love to learn from what you build with it!
🧵 to be one of our first alpha testers

Spilling some beans 🤫 This very startup is actually looking for their first design engineer:

It's an incredible opportunity, owning the product design end-to-end. They've identified that great design is essential for them.
Funnily, I've told the founder to *not* look for a "design engineer." I told him, the most cracked product designers are all AI-pilled and now working with code anyway. If that's you and you're remotely curious, highly rec to get in touch with the founder.
Oh and, did I mention, it's the Firebase founder?!
There's a startup in the current YC batch (P26) that's adding $1M in ARR every two weeks 😳

The loudest story about AI is a lonely one. One person with an army of chatbots. Other humans are friction.
That gets the future wrong. The best things aren’t built alone.
In a moment of change, we want to remind the world (and ourselves) what Notion stands for:
— Think Together

Today we're launching Tasklet — an AI agent for automating your business.
Unlike ChatGPT, @TaskletAI actually does the work for you: connecting to your tools, triggering automatically, and handling tasks while you sleep.

The AI skills gap isn't about coding or prompt engineering—it's about systems thinking.
Companies scrambling to hire LLM experts are missing the point. We need people who understand both the business process and how AI can transform it.
