Introducing The Agentic Era Of Productivity

Notion introduced its new Developer Platform, expanding beyond collaborative note-taking and productivity tools into broader AI automation and workflow orchestration.

During a livestream presentation, the company unveiled a series of updates designed to extend the capabilities of its Custom AI Agents while improving integrations with external tools, databases and enterprise systems. According to Notion, users have already created more than one million AI agents through the platform.

Empowering Developers With Custom Code Execution

A central feature of the new platform is Workers, a cloud-based environment that allows developers and teams to run custom code within a secure sandboxed system. The feature is designed to eliminate the need for additional infrastructure while enabling companies to connect external databases, automate actions through webhooks and build customised internal tools directly within Notion workflows.

The company said the update allows databases inside Notion to function as operational workflow engines rather than static productivity tools.

Unifying Data, Agents And Third-Party Integrations

The platform also expands Notion’s orchestration capabilities across external software systems and AI tools. Integrations currently include platforms such as Salesforce, Zendesk and PostgreSQL, allowing AI agents to interact with updated external data sources.

Notion additionally introduced support for external AI systems, including Claude Code, Cursor, Codex and Decagon, while also launching an External Agent API intended for internal enterprise deployments and custom AI integrations.

Redefining Productivity As Core Infrastructure

The launch reflects a broader shift across the technology industry toward integrated AI-driven workplace infrastructure and workflow automation systems. Ivan Zhao said the platform was designed to support “any data, any tool, and any agent,” as the company positions itself beyond traditional productivity software. Free access to the Developer Platform will remain available through August as Notion expands adoption among developers and enterprise customers.

A New Twitter-Inspired Social Network Is Taking Shape

August 27, 2026

A new social network called Twitter.now is entering the market, with a founding team that includes former Twitter trademark counsel Stephen Coates. The service is being developed by startup Operation Bluebird.

As Ars Technica reported, X sued the company last year and asked a Delaware judge to block the launch. Operation Bluebird argued in a petition that X had abandoned trademarks including “Twitter” and “Tweet.”

Coates has said the project is not an attempt to recreate the original Twitter. In a LinkedIn post, he described the platform as a new public space focused on trust, transparency and user choice.

AI System To Rate Posts

Twitter.now is currently being tested, with early access priced at $20. Its main feature is VERA, an AI system designed to evaluate posts, verify claims and provide sources and context.

Posts receive a trust score, with users eventually able to set a minimum score to filter their feeds. The company says this approach will give people more control over what they see instead of leaving those decisions entirely to an algorithm.

Moderation Remains A Challenge

Scaling moderation will be one of the platform’s biggest tests. Social networks have repeatedly struggled with content moderation as their communities grow, and newer platforms such as Bluesky have faced similar criticism.

Operation Bluebird says VERA will form the basis of its moderation and verification system. A second version is already planned, with expanded tools that would let users set a specific trust threshold for the posts appearing in their feeds.

For now, Twitter.now remains in an early testing phase, combining the familiarity of the Twitter name with an AI-driven approach to evaluating online information.
