Notion Shuts Down Its AI-Based Email Client Just Over a Year After Launch

Notion has announced the closure of Notion Mail, the AI-based email service introduced within its productivity ecosystem. The platform, launched in April 2025, will be definitively discontinued on September 22, 2026, and will no longer be available on web, desktop, and iOS versions.

Over time, the company expanded its offerings by adding tools like Notion Calendar, Notion Web Clipper, and Notion Mail, designed to transform email management into a more personalized experience.

Additional Details on the Closure of Notion Mail

The company explained that a significant portion of Notion Mail users now utilize automated systems to organize their email work. For this reason, Notion has decided to focus more on smart agents, aiming to develop tools that can manage tasks directly on behalf of users.

The company also thanked those who used the service and built their habits around Notion Mail, emphasizing the importance of the trust received from users in managing a personal element like email. To facilitate the shutdown, Notion has indicated some important dates. From June 25, users can export their exclusive Notion Mail data via the app or web version.

September 21 will be the last day available to save the information they wish to keep. The following day, September 22, the service will be disabled and all non-exported data will be permanently deleted. The closure only affects Notion Mail, while the other main tools of the Notion ecosystem will remain available. Until the service ceases, the application can still be downloaded from the App Store.
