The Ask AI search feature answers questions using content already stored across your workspace, so you can ask about a decision, a date, or a detail instead of hunting through several pages manually.

To ask a question:

- Open the **Search** bar or the **Ask AI** panel from the sidebar;
- Type a question in plain language, for instance "when is the marketing budget due";
- Review the answer, along with the source pages it was pulled from;
- Click a linked source to open the original page for more context.

Answers are generated from your workspace content, so accuracy depends on how up to date and clearly written your pages are. Always check the linked sources before treating an answer as final.

Note

This feature works best for workspaces that already have organized notes and documentation; on a mostly empty workspace, there is little for it to search through.

Explore how Notion AI fits into everyday note-taking and project work. Draft and rewrite text without leaving a page, summarize long notes into a few key lines, brainstorm ideas on a blank page, translate content into another language, and set up databases that fill themselves in. Build the skills to plan, write, and organize a workspace faster using AI features built directly into Notion.

Practice using Notion AI for writing, summarizing, brainstorming, translating, and searching a workspace, plus setting up AI Autofill in databases, so everyday notes and projects come together faster.
