Base risk

2.6/ 5

LowMediumHighCritical

Notion AI runs on top of Anthropic and OpenAI via Notion’s back-end, with a contractual no-training stance. The bigger risk is Notion content itself — a workspace with an open share-link or weak permission walls becomes ingestible by Notion AI Q&A across the org. Treat permission hygiene as a precondition for AI rollout.
