Automatically update
Notion from Email
Forward an email. Housecat extracts contacts, companies, deal notes and action items, then updates Notion in minutes.
How it works
Forward an email to Housecat
Any email — intros, follow-ups, pitch decks, meeting recaps. Just forward it.
Housecat extracts people, companies, and context
Names, emails, companies, roles, and the key details from the conversation are pulled out automatically. We download linked files or attachments and save them in the right place.
Notion databases are updated
New pages are created in your databases for contacts and companies. Existing pages are updated with notes, and relations between databases are preserved.
You get a confirmation and can edit or undo
Nothing happens without your knowledge. Review what was synced and make changes if needed.
Why Housecat?
- Works directly from your inbox, no need to learn new tools
- No engineering or Zapier setup required
- You're in control — review, edit, or undo any sync
- Data is stored securely (learn more about our security and privacy practices)
FAQ
How does Housecat work with my existing Notion workspace?
Housecat maps your existing databases and their properties automatically. It understands your workspace structure — including relations between databases — and asks you to confirm the mapping before syncing anything.
Does it work with shared inboxes?
Yes. You can forward emails from any inbox — personal or shared — and Housecat will process them the same way.
Can I review changes before they sync?
By default Housecat sends a confirmation for every sync, and you can edit or undo any changes before they're finalized. We can also enable full review mode where every change requires human approval before edits to Notion are made.
Is it real-time?
Near real-time. Forwarded emails are typically processed and synced to Notion within a few minutes.
Does it support multiple databases with relations?
Yes. Housecat works across multiple Notion databases and preserves relations between them. For example, it can create a person in your Contacts database and link them to a company in your Organizations database.
What if a page already exists in Notion?
Housecat detects existing pages and updates them rather than creating duplicates. It warns you if it detects a potential conflict.
What about DocSend or other links to files?
If an email contains links to files (like DocSend, Google Drive share links, or other file-sharing services), Housecat will download them and save them to Notion alongside any regular attachments.
