In Brief Posted: 12:14 PM PDT · June 25, 2026 Image Credits: Notion Ivan Mehta Notion Mail shuts down amid agent takeover Productivity company Notion is shutting down its email product, Notion Mail, on September 22.

The company said it is discontinuing its email inbox in favor of its AI agent offering.

It noted that users were increasingly handing over the reins of their email to the agents, and not opening their inbox at all.

As Notion agents have gotten more capable, we’ve seen more users hand off email workflows to them.

Today, more than half of Notion Mail users manage emails without ever opening their inbox.

So, we’re going all in on using agents to run your inbox, the company said in a post on X.

Notion Mail is connected with Gmail, meaning all emails in the inbox will stay intact.

However, users will need to export drafts and scheduled emails if they want to keep them.

The company said that users can export snippets and auto-label instructions and use them elsewhere and emphasized that Notion s email-based agents will keep working post-Notion Mail shutdown.

Notion announced its email product in preview mode in 2024 after it acquired security-centric productivity startup Skiff.

The company aimed to integrate email with Notion AI with features like auto-labeling, filtering, and handling scheduling for users.

The company made the product available to users in April 2025 to better compete with the likes of Superhuman and Fyxer.

Newer startups like AgentMail are in step with Notion s thesis and are trying to build an email service specifically for agents.
