Better Notion

Overview

Better Notion is a Model Context Protocol server that lets you operate Notion with a single Markdown document, reading, creating, and updating pages in one call. Any MCP-compatible AI assistant can call its tools directly, deciding when to use them in conversation or agent runs.

It runs locally via the npm package better-mcp-notion, which speaks MCP over stdio on your machine. You'll need to set the NOTION_API_KEY environment variable to authenticate. The current release is v0.3.2, available at ai-aviate/better-mcp-notion on GitHub.

Better Notion is a Productivity tool on mcp.site and works with any MCP client including Claude Desktop, Claude Code, Cursor, VS Code, Windsurf, and Zed. If you maintain this server, claim your listing to verify ownership and keep the details current.
