Bubble and Notion Join Forces to Help Startup Founders

The rise of AI-powered app development is democratizing software creation. Less than 1% of the world's working population are software developers, and Bubble is on a mission to erase the distinction between software use and software creation, empowering the other 99%.

Bubble and Notion are two tools widely used and beloved by founders building digital products. If you’re a startup founder or entrepreneur working on an app idea, Notion helps you draft, collect, and organize all your notes, docs, wikis, and project ideas in one place. Once you’re ready to bring those ideas to life, Bubble lets you visually build fully-functional web and mobile apps with AI assistance‌ — ‌no coding required‌ — ‌that you can launch on Bubble’s all-in-one platform.

Now, Bubble entrepreneurs can join Notion’s startup program and get up to six months free on the Business Plan with unlimited AI — up to $12,000 value. Also, Notion startups can access exclusive Bubble credits on Notion's Deal Book. 

The spirit of both Bubble and Notion are highly aligned. Notion's mission is to "make toolmaking ubiquitous," while Bubble's mission is to "erase the distinction between software use and software creation." Together, we embody the essence of modern app development, empowering everyone to bring powerful products to life.

Founders use Notion and Bubble to succeed

Take Michael Novotny and Marc Fletcher. 

“We’ve used Notion for asynchronous communication in the development process over the past few months to suit the UK and USA time difference between us,” said Marc. “Expenses, alpha test-results, planning delegation and even our fledgling Knowledge base are all handled with Notion.” 

The pair have also built a To-Do App for Notion using Bubble to conveniently capture fleeting thoughts for Notion. After connecting their Notion through the app’s integration, users simply pick a Notion database, type their thoughts in the app, and click ‘Add’. Their thought is saved for triaging later in Notion.

“Navigating Notion can take effort, especially when using deeply nested pages. Notion has a ‘favorite’ feature, which is convenient, but we lower the friction further and hope to provide users with real time-savings over long term use,” said Marc.
