About Notion Gmail Sidebar

Notion Gmail Sidebar puts your Notion CRM right inside Gmail. Open an email, see the contact — instantly, automatically, without leaving your inbox. No more switching tabs to look someone up. No more copying email addresses into Notion search. The context you need is right there, every time. WHAT IT DOES Every time you open an email in Gmail, the sidebar detects who you're talking to — sender, recipients, and CC — and pulls up their record from your Notion database. Contact details, status fields, deal stage, notes, linked records — whatever you've chosen to see, it's there in one glance. HOW IT WORKS 1. Create a Notion integration and share your database with it 2. Enter your license key and Notion token in the extension 3. Choose your contact database and the fields you want to see 4. Open any email — that's it. Your contact info appears automatically. FEATURES - Instant context — open an email, see the contact. No searching, no tab-switching, no copying emails into Notion to look someone up - Works with your setup — any Notion database works. CRM, client list, lead tracker, custom build. If it has an email field, it works - Multiple databases — connect up to three contact databases, each with its own related database. Separate your leads, clients, and partners without merging them into one table - See what matters — choose exactly which fields show in the sidebar. Name, status, deal stage, last contact, notes — whatever you need at a glance - Stays out of the way — auto-opens when you want it, or toggle to manual mode and open it only when you need it - Your brand, your colors — custom accent color and Notion-native color coding for status and select fields - Private by design — your Notion API key never leaves your device BUILT FOR Solopreneurs, freelancers, and small teams who run their CRM in Notion and want client context without leaving Gmail. Travel agencies, consultants, agencies, coaches — anyone managing relationships in Notion who's tired of switching tabs. PRIVACY Your Notion API key stays on your device. It is never sent to our servers. The extension communicates only with the Notion API and our license validation endpoint. No data is collected, stored, or shared. PRICING Requires a license key from purplecactuslabs.com. Plans: $5/month or $39/year (save ~35%). Both include a 7-day free trial. SUPPORT Questions? Reach out at hello@purplecactus.io
