Notion Shuts Down Email App as AI Agents Take Over
Notion is closing its email app, a product influenced by the Skiff acquisition, and is instead going all in on AI agents that handle inboxes. This shift reflects how AI agents are transforming everyday tasks like managing emails, moving beyond simple automations to directly running your inbox.
Notion announced it will shut down its Skiff-influenced email app and is now "going all in on using agents to run your inbox." The company says most users now rely on these AI tools to sort, respond, and organize emails automatically, reducing the need for a separate email client.
This shift highlights how AI agents are changing routine tasks. Instead of manually sorting emails, AI agents can prioritize messages, draft responses, and even schedule meetings—freeing up time for more important work. The move signals a broader industry trend toward AI-driven inbox management rather than traditional email apps.
