It always starts with a simple question—“Where’s that spec?”
And then the scavenger hunt begins. Slack threads. Jira tickets. Figma files. Docs that haven’t been touched in weeks: is this the source of truth, or am I in the wrong place? What should take seconds takes minutes. What should feel collaborative feels fragmented. Multiply that by every engineer, every PM, and every designer and you start to see the real cost.
We kept hearing the same thing from product teams: AI held promise, but it fell short—disconnected from how they truly work day-to-day. The tools felt bolted-on, siloed, and out of sync with the fast, messy, cross-functional reality of building software today.
So we asked a different question: What if AI wasn’t just fast? What if it was fully plugged in to the way your team thinks, builds, and ships?
That’s what led us to build Notion AI for Work—a new kind of AI experience, deeply integrated with your knowledge, your workflows, and your tools. It’s designed for the full life cycle of product development, from sprint planning to design reviews to incident postmortems, so your team can stay in flow and ship with confidence.
Transforming modern product development
The most innovative teams like OpenAI, Ramp, and Vercel already rely on Notion AI to move faster and build smarter. Find out why here.
What’s new with Notion AI:
Enterprise Search with AI Connectors: Find information instantly across all your tools—Jira, Linear, GitHub, Slack, Microsoft Teams, SharePoint, and more—right within Notion.
Research Mode: Create detailed and comprehensive reports by synthesizing information from across your workspace, databases, connected tools, and the web. Use it for your PRDs, customer research, or drafting roadmap updates.
AI Meeting Notes: Automatically capture and summarize key points from design reviews, sprint planning sessions, and customer discussions.

How Notion AI powers every phase of product development
Your product-development process just got a whole lot faster, smarter, and easier. Notion AI enhances and automates your existing process, removing friction at each stage so your team can focus on building great products, fast. Here’s how Notion AI directly supports each step:
Research and discovery

Notion AI helps product teams spot opportunities and start more focused projects by turning scattered customer feedback, competitive insights, and internal knowledge into synthesized research reports.
Before any project planning begins, teams invest significant time gathering information across scattered sources—customer feedback, competitive research, previous project notes, Slack threads, meeting discussions, and more.
Notion AI brings it all together:
Automatically capture detailed conversations from customer calls, brainstorming sessions, and team discussions with AI Meeting Notes—making sure nothing slips through the cracks.

Build detailed, shareable research reports in minutes with Research Mode, which pulls context from across your Notion workspace, connected tools like Slack and Google Drive, and even the web. Simply ask:
“Can you prepare a report on what customers are saying about [this feature] and how competitors are addressing it?”

Soon, add even more customer signals with upcoming Zendesk and Salesforce integrations.
Requirement planning

Notion AI drafts requirements, PRDs, and specs from your past work and discussions—ensuring teams define more complete, higher-quality requirements up front and reducing costly rework later.
Successful projects start with strong documentation—product requirement documents (PRDs), technical specs, and decision records. Yet teams often waste time piecing together scattered information from Slack, GitHub repositories, Notion pages, and more.
Notion AI makes creating PRDs a snap:
Quickly find relevant past documentation with Enterprise Search, instead of manually searching for information across apps, folders, threads, and more.

Automatically generate a new PRD in your style that references previous examples and learnings. Ask Research Mode:
“Can you draft a PRD for the dashboard redesign, and reference our past project PRDs as a template?”

In seconds, you’ll have a well-organized, evidence-backed draft that your team can easily refine. Directly embed your Figma wireframes, Miro boards, and other relevant assets to keep all context in one place.
Update documents instantly as discussions and decisions evolve, keeping your documentation always aligned with the latest. With Meeting Notes automatically capturing ongoing discussions, you can ask Research Mode:
“Based on recent meeting notes, what updates should we make to the Dashboard Redesign PRD?”
Project tracking and progress updates

Notion AI compiles task updates, pull requests, and meeting notes into ready-to-share updates—helping teams surface risks, maintain momentum, and keep all stakeholders informed without the busywork.
Throughout development, teams are responsible for frequent updates—stand-ups, weekly reports, leadership check-ins—to track progress and plan next steps. But writing these updates sucks time away from actually building.
Notion AI covers routine updates:
Write detailed weekly updates in seconds, scanning the latest information across project tasks, GitHub PRs, Jira tickets, meeting notes, and more. Simply prompt Research Mode:
“Create a project update from the past week for the Dashboard Redesign project, using @weekly update template and referencing previous updates.”

Automatically capture notes and action items from project stand-ups and leadership syncs. Meeting Notes allow you to focus on the conversation while it summarizes discussions and action items, keeping up momentum.
Auto-update next steps or progress with AI Autofill, which will search all relevant information to generate your exact prompt and keep you updated without intervention:
“Highlight relevant next steps based on the most recent weekly meeting notes in the project.”

Product reviews & release planning

Notion AI prepares review documents and pre-reads for launch by connecting all project knowledge—helping teams run more decisive reviews, catch gaps before launch, and ship better products with fewer last-minute surprises.
Nothing ships without product reviews, and these critical meetings require preparing pre-reads, presentations, and decisions needed from stakeholders. Information for these reviews already exists, but it’s scattered.
Notion AI does all the prep for you:
Generate review documents informed by all your information across Notion pages, Jira or Linear issues, Slack conversations, meeting notes, and more. Ask Research Mode:
“Draft a product-review document for Project Dashboard Redesign, similar to previous reviews for Project Dark Mode.”
Leaders get instant help prepping for reviews. Try asking Research Mode:
“Summarize the review pre-read for the Dashboard Redesign Project, and flag areas where I’m likely to have questions based on past reviews for Dark Mode and Mobile.”
You can also ask Notion AI to scan recent project updates to surface any potential risks or areas needing special attention. For example, how a feature may affect permissions or how many users it will impact.
Capture review meeting notes with Notion AI by typing
/meeting
and leave the call with a clear summary and follow-up plan—so teams and leaders leave with instant alignment on next steps.

Build launch docs with little effort with Research Mode, which synthesizes information from PRDs, specs, Slack discussions, and Meeting Notes for a high-fidelity draft. For example:
“Build a launch doc for the Dashboard Redesign project, and pull from the PRD, specs, meeting notes, and Slack conversations.”
It’s easy to start. Notion’s here to help.
The benefits for product development aren’t theoretical. OpenAI shared that “what used to take hours of debugging can now be solved in minutes” with Notion AI. Cohere’s teams save an average of 7+ hours weekly and ship 30% faster by streamlining their work, knowledge, and AI in Notion, while Ramp cut overall tool costs by over 70%.
By bringing your team’s knowledge and workflows into a connected workspace enhanced by AI, you’re setting up your product teams to ship faster and with much less headache.
