Answer

Should I use Notion AI or Display?

Use Display when your team already pays for Claude, ChatGPT, Codex or Cursor, and needs one place for the docs that those agents write. Your agent publishes the doc. Your team comments on it and edits it on the page. Display has no AI plan and no credits. Team costs $59 a month for up to 150 Editors and Contributors, billed yearly. Use Notion AI when you want the assistant inside the docs tool. Display has no built-in AI writer, no meeting notes and no agents that run on a schedule. Notion AI has all three. It is part of the Notion Business plan, at $20 per member a month, paid annually. For 30 people, that is $600 a month.

Notion AI and Display, side by side

Notion AI is an assistant inside Notion. Since 2 November 2026, each member on a Business or Enterprise plan has a monthly credit allowance for it. Display keeps the docs that your own agents write, at one flat price for the company.

Edit any document in-line.

Fix any line right where you read it.

A Q3 delivery report is open on Display, with 89.7% in its On-time rate tile. Someone selects Edit in the header, changes the tile to 94.4% on the page, and selects Save changes. The report reopens as version 4 at the same URL.

Share each doc and Space with the right people

A doc stays private until you share it. Then choose who can open it – one doc, a folder or a whole Space.

  1. Private by default

    Every doc stays private until you share it with people and groups.

  2. One-click sign-in for colleagues

    On Solo and higher plans, colleagues use the Google or Microsoft account they already have. Readers need no seat.

  3. Invite people outside your company

    Invite clients and partners by email, and give each one a role: Viewer, Commenter, Contributor or Editor. They need no Notion account.

  4. Know who opened it

    On Team and Business, see who opened which doc, and when, before you follow up.

Notion AI or Display?

Choose by where the AI is. Notion AI is inside the docs tool. With Display, your team keeps the agents it has. Many teams use both.

Use Notion AI if

  • You want an assistant that writes, edits and translates inside the page.
  • You need AI meeting notes, or agents that run on a schedule.
  • You need answers from Slack, GitHub and other connected apps.
  • Your team works in Notion databases and edits pages at the same time.

Use Display if

  • Your team already pays for Claude, ChatGPT, Codex or Cursor.
  • Your agents write reports, specs and plans as HTML or Markdown.
  • Many colleagues only read and comment, and you do not want a seat for each one.
  • You want one flat price, with no AI credits to track.

Questions about Display and Notion AI

We already pay for Claude or ChatGPT. Why add Display?

Your agent writes the doc. Display is the place where your team opens it, comments on it and finds it again. Claude Code, Claude, ChatGPT, Codex and Cursor connect through the Display MCP server, the CLI or the API. Each person can use a different agent on the same doc. Display does not check anyone's AI plan.

What does Notion AI cost, and what does Display cost?

Display Team costs $59 a month for the whole company, billed yearly as one payment of $708, with up to 150 Editors and Contributors. Viewers and Commenters are free on every plan. The Free plan costs $0. The Display price does not include an AI model. Notion AI is part of the Notion Business plan, at $20 per member a month, paid annually. For 30 people, that is $600 a month. Each member gets 1,500 Standard credits and 500 Select credits a month. More credits cost $10 per 1,000 a month. From 1 December 2026, AI Meeting Notes also use Standard credits. We checked the Notion prices on 12 November 2026.

Our agents can already write to Notion through Notion MCP. What is different?

Notion MCP accepts outside agents, and those read and write actions use no Notion AI credits. Display is different in three ways. An HTML file opens as the page that your agent built. Notion's HTML import converts the file into blocks, and does not carry complex layouts, scripts or embeds. Colleagues who read and comment on private docs are free in Display. Notion charges for each member. Display has one flat price for the company.

Can we keep Notion and use Display too?

Yes. Keep databases, tasks and meeting notes in Notion, and publish the docs that your agents write to Display. For the full comparison of the two products, see the Notion alternative page.

Does Display have a built-in AI writer or meeting notes?

No. Display has no AI assistant, no meeting notes and no agents that run on a schedule. The agent you already use writes and updates the docs. If you want the assistant inside the docs tool, Notion AI is the better choice.

Notion lets me connect my ChatGPT plan. Is that the same?

No. In Notion, your workspace must be on the Business or Enterprise plan first. Each person connects their own ChatGPT Plus, Pro, Business or Go account. Notion uses that plan only when the person selects a GPT model in Notion Agent, and it does not work with Custom Agents. Display has no AI of its own. Your agent publishes the doc, and Display does not check anyone's AI plan.

Does Display use my content to train AI models?

No. We do not use customer content to train or fine-tune any AI or machine-learning model.

Is Display open source?

No. “Open” means three things. Any agent can publish to Display. Anyone you choose can open a doc without a seat. You can download the source file of any doc at any time.

Publish the next doc from the AI you already use

Display works with Claude Code, Claude, ChatGPT, Codex, Cursor and any other agent that writes HTML or Markdown. The Free plan costs $0.
