GetItDone vs Notion
An AI workspace for notes, docs and projects.
Every statement below links to the source it came from and the date someone last read it. Nothing here is a summary of a review site, and nothing claims one product is better than the other — the two do different things, and this page is about which of those you need.
What Notion publishes
- "Notion MCP is a remote MCP server hosted by Notion"; after the user authorizes with OAuth, a client can "read and update content that you can access". Sourcechecked 2026-09-26
- Its overview names Claude Code, Cursor and Codex as example MCP clients. Sourcechecked 2026-09-26
- The docs publish no tool count and point to a Supported tools page "for the current tool list". Sourcechecked 2026-09-26
- Its attachment tool "does not fetch arbitrary URLs or return binary files"; for binary attachments it points to the signed file URL returned when a page is read. Sourcechecked 2026-09-26
What GetItDone publishes
- The GetItDone MCP server registers 11 tools, each with an explicit required scope, and the full catalog is published on one page. Sourcechecked 2026-09-03
- get_task_video_context returns the visual content of a task — image attachments and video frames — into the assistant’s context, rather than a link the assistant cannot open. Sourcechecked 2026-09-03
What GetItDone does not do
- No Google Calendar sync. The integrations grid lists it as planned; the dated roadmap row says it has not been started and there is no calendar code in the product. Sourcechecked 2026-09-05
- Voice capture is built but gated on a transcription provider being configured, so it is off in production and the app offers typing instead. Screenshot capture ships today. Sourcechecked 2026-09-05
- GetItDone is not listed in the consumer connector directories, so connecting an assistant means pasting the MCP server URL from the setup guide and signing in, rather than picking it from a catalog. Sourcechecked 2026-09-26
The dated roadmap for those is on the changelog.
