Official pages confirm AI features including Notion Agent, Custom Agents, Enterprise Search, AI Meeting Notes, Research Mode, AI writing, translation, file/image analysis, and database creation. By default, Notion and its AI subprocessors do not use Customer Data to train models; subprocessors are contractually prohibited from doing so. Some data-retaining LLM features may be enabled by workspace administrators. Deleted pages/workspaces can be restored for 30 days and are then deleted, including AI-generated data and embeddings.
