Notion killing Skiff-influenced email app since most users use AI agents instead

Notion is shutting down its Skiff-influenced email client, Notion Mail, citing a shift toward AI agents that now handle over half of user email workflows without manual inbox interaction. The service will cease operations on September 22, with email history remaining in Gmail while users must manually export drafts and scheduled emails before the deadline.

Background

Notion acquired the encrypted productivity startup Skiff in February 2024, subsequently launching Notion Mail as a Gmail client built by former Skiff employees. This move represents a strategic pivot from traditional email interfaces to AI-driven automation within the productivity suite.
