Overview
We’re excited to announce our newest challenge in partnership with Major League Hacking (MLH) and Notion! Running through March 29, the Notion MCP Challenge invites you to centralize your workflow with AI‑powered docs, projects, and notes. Scale side hustles or empires with “human‑in‑the‑loop” systems that run globally without ever hitting snooze.
Whether you’re an engineer, a founder, or someone who just likes to build cool things, this is your chance to show the world what AI‑powered workflows can accomplish.
