About Notion - Workspace & Documentation

Notion has redefined what a workspace can be. Starting as a note-taking app, it evolved into a powerful platform where teams can build databases, wikis, project trackers, and documentation—all connected through relational databases.

Its unique block-based approach means any page can contain text, databases, calendars, embeds, and more. Teams use Notion for everything from simple meeting notes to complex CRM systems.

About Notion

Notion was founded in 2013 by Ivan Zhao. After near-bankruptcy and a remarkable comeback, it has grown to over 30 million users and a $10 billion valuation.

Founded: 2013HQ: San Francisco, CA, USA
