Vision makes a highly customizable email app

After taking on calendar apps earlier this year, Notion is ready to tackle email with a fully customizable app to launch next year. Like Notion’s other tools, the company says Mail will “break email down to its own building blocks,” allowing you to create an inbox with views, layouts, and actions that match your preferences.

You can also use Notion AI to automatically sort, archive, or filter emails based on notifications. Its AI can schedule meetings for you by integrating with the Vision Calendar app, and help you quickly write personalized emails using “one-click snippets.” The Mail app has some similarities to Skiff, the secure email service Notion acquired in February.

Notion plans to launch its Mail app in “early 2025,” and it will integrate with Google and Gmail accounts at launch. It will also be available for iPhone and Android devices. The Notion Mail app is still in early testing, but you can join the waiting list for access on the Notion website.

In addition to the new Mail app, Notion has introduced a new Forms tool that you can use to collect responses, just like Google Forms. Notion is also rolling out more ways to customize layouts and new automations that will let you notify people through Gmail. Notion has introduced an update to its marketplace as well, where people can sell and buy Notion templates.

As partner David Pierce noted earlier this year, Notion wants to be the only productivity app a company needs to accomplish all its tasks. Now that it’s following emails, maybe the launch app will really follow.
