Recommended tools
Notion & workspace systems
Notion
Notion is the core platform we use to design connected workspaces, business systems, dashboards, and templates.
Best for: Building flexible operating systems for work, content, projects, clients, and personal planning.
Why we recommend it: It lets information, tasks, workflows, and documentation live in one connected structure instead of being scattered across disconnected tools.
Content creation
Canva
Canva is useful for creating simple visual assets, product graphics, social content, and lightweight brand materials.
Best for: Fast design work, visual content, and simple marketing assets.
Why we recommend it: It makes it easier to create consistent supporting visuals without turning every asset into a full design project.
Email & audience
KIT
KIT is an email platform for building and nurturing an owned audience.
Best for: Newsletter publishing, email capture, subscriber management, and simple nurture flows.
Why we recommend it: An owned email list gives The Notion Experience a more durable relationship with the audience than relying only on social platforms.
Website & business tools
Gumroad
Gumroad can be used to sell digital products, manage buyers, and distribute template files.
Best for: Simple digital product sales and customer delivery.
Why we recommend it: It keeps product delivery lightweight, especially for templates and smaller digital offers.
Super.so
Super turns Notion pages into fast, responsive websites with custom domains, clean styling, and instant sync.
Best for: Publishing websites, landing pages, and documentation directly from Notion.
Why we recommend it: It lets us manage site content entirely in Notion while delivering a fast, standalone web experience without custom code.
