Why "Better"?
7 mega action-based tools that consolidate Notion's 28+ REST API endpoints into composite operations optimized for AI agents.

| Operations | Composite actions (create page + content + properties in 1 call) | Atomic operations (2+ separate calls required) |
| Pagination | Auto-pagination (transparent) | Manual cursor management |
| Bulk Operations | Native batch support (create/update/delete multiple items at once) | Loop through items manually |
| Tool Architecture | 7 mega action-based tools (30+ actions) | 28+ individual endpoint tools |
| Database Query | Smart search (auto-detect best match) | Manual filters + sorts required |
| Token Efficiency | Optimized for AI context | Standard API responses |
| Setup | Simple (NOTION_TOKEN only) | OAuth flow or token |
