NOTION SCAN

Workspace Intelligence

Your workspace isn't broken. It just needs a diagnosis.

Notion Scan reads every database, page, and connection in your workspace, then tells you exactly what's healthy, what's at risk, and where to start.

How the scan works

A read-only snapshot of your workspace structure. Nothing more.

The scan runs through the Notion API on a connection you create and control. It only ever reads your workspace and never changes it. We store titles and structure, never what's written inside your pages and entries.

What we capture

  • Structure & titles: page and database titles, property schemas, and entry counts
  • Activity signals: page creation dates, last-edited timestamps, and edit attribution used to measure freshness and velocity
  • User metadata: workspace members, edit volume per user, and database-level contribution patterns
  • Database connections: the graph of relations between databases that defines your workspace architecture

What we never store

  • Page content: the text, images, and embeds inside your pages are never extracted or stored
  • Entry values: the contents of database rows are never stored
  • Comments & attachments: the comments API is never called, and files are never downloaded, opened, or stored
  • Write access: none; the scan never creates, edits, or deletes anything in your workspace
In practice: You create a Notion connection and share your workspace with it. Our scanner walks every page and database exposed to that connection, collecting only structural metadata. The entire process is automated and rate-limited. The result is a structural snapshot, not a copy of your content.
What your scan reveals

A complete map of your workspace, and everything hiding in it.

Duplicate and overlapping databases surfaced
Stale and abandoned systems identified
Ownership gaps and concentration risks
Most teams have never seen their workspace this clearly. That clarity is what makes cleanup possible, and it's the foundation an AI agent needs.
How we diagnose it

Every workspace experiences challenges in the same four areas.

We score each one independently, so you know exactly where the problems are and which ones to fix first.

01

Content Freshness

  • Identifies stale and abandoned content
  • Measures edit velocity across databases
02

User Distribution

  • Measures how concentrated editing is across your team
  • Groups users into cohorts by edit volume, from power users to non-users
03

Database Gravity

  • Classifies every database by type
  • Separates core systems from noise
  • Maps the relations between every database
04

Core Systems

  • Audits property utilization across your core databases
  • Checks relational integrity and connectivity
Getting started

Start with a scan. End with a plan.

From first connection to structured diagnosis. Then decide how deep you want to go.

1

Create a connection

Set up a read-only Notion connection and share your workspace with it. A few minutes, guided step by step.

2

Run the scan

We scan everything you've shared: every database, page, user, and relation. Fully automated.

3

30-min review

A live session with an expert: your workspace health score, key risks, and top recommendations.

4

Why Notion State

Your workspace in expert hands.

75+Notion implementations delivered across companies from 100 to 3,000+ employees

Personally recommended by Notion leadership

Notion refers customers to us by name. That's how we came to support Affirm, Notion Labs, Polymarket, Articulate, and Virta Health.

We don't just clean up. We unlock AI.

Recent work includes deploying a Slack-integrated IT agent that replaced a dedicated ticketing tool, built on a workspace we diagnosed and restructured first.

“I push for Notion State anytime we work with a partner. Gold standard!”
