building nova with mode selection is smart - do you find yourself sticking to 2-3 modes mostly or using all 12 regularly?

I set it to auto-select based on the task.

So end of the day it’s really about what needs to be done on that day.

This is fine if you are only using the Notion AI Chat feature, but it will not propagate to AI Blocks where one can build automations. Have you had any success building automated flows that use the agent that these instructions apply to?

Have not tried automations yet. But the AI can create very good formulas already.

Yes, agree if you are satisfied with cutting and pasting into the chat window. However, the performance of the AI-Block-embedded LLM is very weak and prone to hallucination. I really hope Notion get the tool-calling functionality into AI-Block ASAP.

But the AI Chat (with Agent) is amazingly good.

Yes the AI block is un-usable at the moment.

Feel free to duplicate the instructions as well.

Have you set up your very own JARVIS?

Thank you!

I am still experimenting with it .

I do think that it is more powerful then charGPT and Claude because of its context capabilities.

The template is really helpful , going to steal this .

Thanks a lot

This looks awesome! Going to dig in during the weekend. I had lost a bit of faith in Notion until they added off-line capability, and the update related to AI agents, is a great step forward. I created a blueprint in Notion yesterday for my business and writing efforts online. I have done the same in ChatGPT and Perplexity. Going to have a look at the different outputs this weekend.

Yes, set up the Agent mode and you can see the difference.

Have fun!

I have had a first look at NOVA and it looks impressive and very good. This is a great and I would say an indispensable tool for any writer and/or solopreneur. Thanks for creating it and I can’t believe that you’re sharing this freely. One question pops to mind what difference will it make going paid on Notion compared to staying on the free tier in Notion. Will the quality of the output be impacted?

I am asking based on what I have learned through courses from Evolution Unleashed about prompting and creating frameworks for business with AI.

Only Business plan has access to Notion Agent. So no other way. Haha.

They made it so good that people struggle not to go for paid plan.

Probably need the business plan then 🤓

This was a super fun read! I'm not using Notion but I find it awesome how you turned basically a chatbot into a PM workflow? Nice! :)

Wow I'm very happy that a non-Notion user like yourself enjoy reading this post.

It means a lot.

Truly thankful.

Yes, when Notion introduced Notion Agent, the sky's the limit.
