What is Notion?
Notion's core unit is a page, which can hold text, media, embedded material, and structured data. Its databases are collections of pages with properties and views such as tables or boards. Teams can turn pages into a wiki and mark selected pages as verified, making it easier to indicate which internal guidance has been reviewed.
