What happens if @NotionHQ starts showing ads?

@immasiddx It depends on your use

Maturity is realising that Notes > Notion

ICYMI: we added fresh cover art for your pages 🍐 From four new libraries: → Texturelabs → Hudson River School (The Met) → National Museum of Asian Art → USDA Pomological Watercolors

@easlonotes I've also built one: x.com/Note_Shell/sta…

Wild seeing people build games in Notion. This one is Wordle.

@wustep @NotionHQ Not yet, still working on game instructions. I'll make it public once the instructions are done :)

@Note_Shell @NotionHQ very cute! thanks for sharing, is the template public? :)

continually blown away by what people create in @notionhq it’s a delight to build for such a creative community :)

Check out Habify yourself: notion.com/templates/habi…

I saw someone build Doom in @NotionHQ. So I thought… why not try something myself? Result: “Feeding the Lama” A small game, fully powered by formulas. After heatmaps, this might be my favorite build yet. (Some ideas come from Habify....)

@Note_Shell I've been cooking! The only thing is they never said anything about limits for the beta period, and then out of the blue they just stopped all my usage. I was looking forward to presenting all the possibilities with agents to the group. Hopefully I can get them turned back on. :)

Notion Custom Agents pricing explained: • Free till May 3 • Then $10 / 1,000 credits • Credits reset monthly (no rollover on unused credits) Each task consumes different credits depending on complexity. So you can’t estimate costs easily and the usage is unpredictable.

@DJEndoLive 300k? I've used around 500 credits. That's insane level of beta testing. That must be the reason why Notion banned you from the beta period.

@Note_Shell Apparently I used 390,000 credits (I built an insane productivity system). Just my email agent alone would cost me $1300/ month if my math is correct haha.

@DJEndoLive @mschoening Yup. Especially for the Stock Market related templates like Trading OS or for finance tracker.

@Note_Shell @mschoening Interesting. I’m not sure how much Google Finance formula updates but seems to keep all my sheets update and currency conversion for EUR and USD for every expense and invoice updated in real time via Google Finance. Would be great to have that feature.

You can now build a currency converter inside Notion using Custom Agents. Takes ~10–15 seconds. Not perfectly accurate, but good enough for quick use. But… 15 tasks used 182 credits. Even failed tasks consume credits Credits will matter a lot after May 3.

@DJEndoLive I've seen someone on reddit who had a similar problem. The problem with that person: When he downgraded his workspace from Biz to free plan, a window popped up and said, "You'll lose your 500 credits if you downgrade to free plan". The workspace was in beta but still showed it.

@Note_Shell I just got my use of Agents cut out of the blue during the beta period. I thought they were free untl May 3, but mine say "your workspace has reached its credit limit. I contacted support and they said I couldn't get them back even if I paid until May 4th. Is this a known issue?

@DJEndoLive @mschoening Yep but since the the exchange rates fluctuate, you cannot use a statc number in formulas. Formulas don't have any function to fetch exchange rate data so we have to fetch the data using Notion AI automation and then it updates the rate and the value gets reflected in the formula

@Note_Shell @mschoening More efficient (and accurate) to just have a formula that does it automatically in real time since exchange rates are constantly fluctuating.

@mschoening npm i -g ntn && ntn workers init

@Note_Shell Workers are available to the public. 🤫 npm i -g ntn ntn login ntn workers new What’s not yet available is a Notion agent that makes them for you.

@DJEndoLive @mschoening It's not about getting the exchange rate info. It's about automatically updating your database with the current rates.

@Note_Shell @mschoening You shouldn’t have to use AI for a simple formula. See also, Google Finance. Just add that to notion. Seems simple no? Charge people credits to do their exchange rates and make them make agents? Common now. lol.

Just 2 research tasks with Opus 4.6 for Notion Updates agent… Boom. 210 credits gone. After beta period, this is gonna cost real money. Better approach: • Use lighter models for simple tasks • Use frontier models only when needed • Set a credit limit

@mschoening @DJEndoLive Notion Worker, right? They are gonna be really awesome I think.

@DJEndoLive @Note_Shell Here is a worker I asked Codex to build with no manual input to automatically sync 165 currency rates into a database every couple of hours. There is no need to harm a GPU for this usecase. We will make this easier for you. I promise.

@mschoening @DJEndoLive Yep but you have to write a simple prompt for that. It's partially automated.

@DJEndoLive @Note_Shell Also, here is a future version of Personal Agent doing this for you if you really insist on using AI 😂:

@mschoening Notion workers can solve this problem but since they aren't available to public yet, custom agents are suitable for this task. You can do it in many ways, manual input, asking Notion AI or creating an custom agent. Though this is not the best way to use custom agents and I agree.

@Note_Shell There is absolutely no need to do this with AI.
