Notion

Create and manage pages, databases, and content in your Notion workspace

macOS Calendar

• Creates calendar events from natural language ("tomorrow at 2pm", "next Monday", "in 3 days")
• Sets up recurring meetings (daily standups, weekly 1-on-1s, biweekly check-ins)
• Adds reminders and alerts before events
• Handles all-day events and blocks of time
• Works with multiple calendars (personal, work, projects)

Notion

• Creates new pages and databases in your Notion workspace
• Adds and updates content blocks (paragraphs, lists, headings) on any page
• Queries databases to find specific items based on filters and sorts
• Updates page properties like status, dates, tags, and custom fields
• Searches across all your Notion pages and databases

• You want to update task statuses or add entries to a database from your chat
• You're gathering information and want to save it directly to your Notion knowledge base
• You need to pull specific data from a Notion database to review or reference
