TIL i use SO MANY hand motions when i talk 💀

it has been exciting to watch amy go on this journey over the past many months as her friend!

my friend @tab_delete’s riveting book “HOW TO RULE THE WORLD” came out today. it was an honor to be theo’s editor while he wrote for @StanfordDaily. i hope you enjoy theo’s consequential and fiery behind-the-scenes story of silicon valley and stanford

well well well look who is parked illegally

You can now take the N train in San Francisco to go from Notion office to the Notion Way 🙃 (h/t @akm_io)

I just wrapped up @NotionHQ! From starting to use the product in 2020, to joining ~3 years ago and building lots, I’ve loved it all. I’m sad to leave… but can’t wait to be a customer again! Thankful to @ivanhzhao, @akothari, @mschoening and many others for believing in me every step of the way, even on the way out. Notion really cares about its people and it shows.

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

was able to sync 5 years of budget data into @NotionHQ from @ynab last night in under 15 minutes. now, I can: - make any charts or views of this data I want - use it as context for AI search over my life - trigger automations custom agents from it

bts of one of my recent projects!

me and my coworkers on twitter:

i wanted to ship something at Notion before tweeting too much, and now that dashboards shipped, i just wanna say - i feel so lucky to work here. i'm growing, i'm supported, i'm pushed. the designers are funny, i laugh so much every day. the leadership is really incredible, and the office is really beautiful. i'm excited to go to work in the morning. that's ikigai!

For the past few months, we've been building a new way to interact with Notion — a standalone Notion AI app. We'd love for you to try it 🖤 This is my first project at @NotionHQ and it's been sooo much fun!! Only the beginning :) Give it a try: testflight.apple.com/join/m2…

hope you get a chance to try these out! dashboards are deceptively simple products, particularly with the amount of craziness you can do in a Notion database. we spent a lot of time making these feel just right :)

have been working on the dashboards project with @wustep and @pifafu for a couple months. dashboards are underrated and deceptively simple! there are a lot of bad ones out there but I'm glad our approach seems to be resonating so far :)

We've got something dashing coming to @NotionHQ today. Hope it doesn't make you too board 👀

✨New demo: what if vibe coding felt more visual? @brian_lovin @maryrosecook and I did a game jam using Notion as our "IDE": launching Cursor agents from a task board, and making a custom image for each task 😎 The demo shows 3 ideas for the future of agents: 1) Agents should collaborate across apps. Each app has its focus--Notion AI is good at drafting specs and organizing tasks; Cursor is good at coding. So let them specialize! Today we're launching a new integration where Notion AI can kick off Cursor Cloud Agents to do coding tasks. The Cursor API accepts natural language prompts, so I think of this as "cross-app sub-agents" -- it's kinda cute how it resembles humans hiring outside contractors 😊 BTW: the parallelism of cloud agents is incredibly freeing for creativity, but it also creates a new problem: sooo much work to keep track of! Which brings us to the next idea... 2) Agent orchestration is a data visualization problem. A powerful frame for designing agent UIs is to think of the chat transcripts as the "raw data" and ask: what visual projections might help people make sense of this data at scale? We need to engage our human GPUs -- our visual processing -- to understand what the computer GPUs are doing for us! One thing we can do is use AI to populate traditional UIs like progress bars and status updates. But there are also new possibilities now... For example: when you have a lot going on, it can be hard to identify tasks just by text titles. So we tried generating an AI image for each task -- turns out this helps a lot by giving it a unique visual identity! And of course, it also just makes it super fun to build with friends 😃 Speaking of friends... 3) The future of coding is collaborative. Sometimes it feels like IC engineers are being reduced to middle managers: shuffling information between the team's context and the coding agents that they individually manage. The solution: bring all the people and agents into one shared space, with shared context and visibility! In the video you can get a glimpse of how this feels. Mary, Brian and I record ourselves chatting about ideas, and then we use AI to turn that conversation into a list of tasks on a shared board. As the ideas get built in parallel, we can all monitor progress and review the work together, nothing is siloed. My main takeaway from this game jam was: damn, creativity with friends, at the speed of conversation, is incredibly fun. --- Our goal here is to let anyone use Notion as a fun and creative "software factory" to build software together with your team. Give the Cursor integration a shot and let us know what you think! (AI Image gen in Notion isn't GA yet, but coming soon and already out to some users) And let me know if you'd want a template or more detailed instructions on the setup we showed in this demo...

this is how deploying a notion worker makes you feel.

Here's a sneak peek at our newly released "Workers" 👀 From @mschoening, who describes this as moving towards "the caching of intelligence".
