Notion Basics

An honest answer to whether Notion is still worth it in 2026: what each plan really costs, where AI earns its price, where Notion falls short, and a 30-minute test to decide.

Most interior design templates hand you a pretty dashboard and no architecture. This is the opposite: the seven databases behind a full-service studio, built and cleaned up step by step.
