   Notion Rebuilds Its Agents, Cuts Auto Costs by 90% and Adds a New Credit System

   Notion has given Notion AI a major upgrade. It rebuilt its AI agents with their own computer and browser, made Auto, which picks models automatically, smarter, and introduced a new credit system that brings all AI usage together.

   • Notion Agents can work for up to 24 hours using their own computer and browser, and a new Review for me mode adds safety checks.
   • Across more than 20 common tasks, Auto produced results similar to Opus 5.5 and Astra at about 90% lower average cost.
   • ChatGPT Plus, Pro, and Go plans can be linked to a personal Notion Agent, and bring-your-own-key for Enterprise is in private alpha, an early test open to a few.
   • Notion MCP, which lets outside AI tools use Notion, was overhauled and memory sync has started, while an AI Command Center for managing usage is coming soon.

   Notion 3.8 Expands Connections to Give AI Agents Shared Context

   Notion has released version 3.8, greatly expanding how data, tools, and skills connect. The update aims to keep a team's context, the background needed for the work, in Notion so it can be shared whichever AI agent or model people use.

   • Through MCP, a standard way to link AI to outside tools, outside agents can read and edit Notion, and Notion's own agents can connect to more than 150 tools.
   • On Business and Enterprise plans, a ChatGPT Plus or Pro subscription can pay for AI use in Notion, with no markup added.
   • Databases now have column permissions, so owners decide which fields each person or agent may see or change.
   • Improved version history shows who changed what and makes rolling back easier, and synced databases for GitHub, Jira, and Salesforce were rebuilt.

   Notion 3.7 Brings Agent Skills to the Whole Team

   Notion has released version 3.7 with skills, reusable instructions that teach AI how a team works. Turning a well-crafted prompt, an instruction given to AI, into a skill lets the whole team use AI the same way.

   • Team skills are gathered in a skills library and can be run by typing / in a Notion Agent chat or set to run automatically.
   • Skills made in Notion can be downloaded as SKILL.md files and used in Claude Code, Codex, Cursor, Gemini, and Grok.
   • A Custom Agent can now call other Custom Agents as sub-agents, helper AIs that take on parts of the work.
   • Connecting tools like GitHub and Amplitude through Custom MCP, a way to link outside tools to AI, is in beta for Business and Enterprise, and a Notion Agents app for iOS was also introduced.

   Notion Agents Can Now Suggest Edits Instead of Making Them Directly

   Notion's AI agents can now propose changes to a document instead of editing it right away. Users go through the suggestions from top to bottom and approve them one by one.

   • To get started, just ask the agent to suggest edits.
   • It is especially handy for line-level fixes such as a grammar pass.
