Notion

Connected workspace for firm-wide standards, wikis, and pursuit tracking

Notion is a connected workspace combining pages, databases, and a wiki layer with configurable properties, multiple views, and an API for automations. AEC firms can adapt these documented capabilities to centralize practice standards and knowledge, and to track business-development pursuits, without Notion providing any AEC-specific functionality.
