Partly fits

Slappartial · 58

It connects Gmail to Notion so email can live inside your notes database, but it’s an email-to-Notion integration rather than a full unified email workspace.

Won’t cover: It focuses on moving Gmail threads into Notion, not a broader unified inbox plus workspace experience.

Missivepartial · 55

Missive is strong for organizing and assigning email via tags and tasks, but it’s primarily framed as inbox collaboration rather than notes/workspace consolidation.

Won’t cover: It emphasizes shared inbox and task ownership more than syncing email into a dedicated notes/workspace system.
