I'm incredibly excited to share that @_ryannystrom and I are joining Notion to help build a better future for team collaboration. It's been an incredible run with @trycampsite, and it's only possible because of our insanely talented team, passionate customers, and supportive…
People asked for a breakdown of changes so here's one: the calendar's context panel.
Shipping this was a deeply personal endeavor — figuring out how to preserve the precision of Cron but introducing the familiarity of Notion. We're building for the masses and that means laying a solid foundation first. Big bets to come
Notion AI is getting really good internally. And the roadmap is so cool. The next year is gonna be awesome.
📢PSA if we're mutuals and you're a designer low key open to a new thing – I'd like to be your agent! 1. I'm discreet. Promise no doxx 2. I only show you top teams i'd work with myself 3. I'll negotiate the shit out of your offer to get you what you deserve slide into my DMs!
At a certain point every design problem can be boiled down to how to correctly model permissions.
Just shipped: every @-mention now has a little hover card. Say hi, book time, or go explore your teammate’s new profile page.
Design at Ambrook is so different than any other tech company. Our product designer Calvin Ku covered learnings "Designing for the Field" after joining the team from Stripe. The farmers, ranchers, and owner-operators we work with have unique challenges that demand top-notch…

“18 years ago” is hitting hard rn 😐
18 years ago today, the device that changed our lives. An iPod, a Phone, and an Internet Communicator.
i was interviewed about @NotionHQ design for YouTube! top comment is "Notion is for people who obsess about how to do something and never get anything done." 💀 we love our users 💕 come watch me get roasted in the comments section
Fun chat with @ShannonRhee, founding designer behind Research Mode, a new @NotionHQ product that launched just a month ago. We get into: - why we built it at all - how to design waiting (yep, really!) - surprising ways people are using it - and what’s coming next Hope you enjoy…
Startups are hard. Think carefully about where to spend your heartbeats. And then when you make the leap, go big.
During Config we put on an event for current and aspiring designer founders. We had space for maybe 90 people BUT over 1000 folks that wanted to attend! Totally blew us away. SO, we recorded the talks and the first one is now available on our Designer Founder Substack...
Notion Design team dinner last night. Box sushi. Memories and dreams. Good times. (Yes general consensus there's a design system now...)
Does anyone know about/maintain an up-to-date pricing comparison table for major providers + models?
I've been having lots of conflicting feelings about AI-assisted programming in the last week. deplet.ing/the-copilot-de… does a good job articulating some of the frustrations. I can also feel this happening in my brain ("the biggest threat is people get lazy"):…
So well done. Worth a download just to see it
Can’t overstate how good this app is. apps.apple.com/us/app/sudoku-…
