How has your experience with Notion changed over time?

We still use Notion almost every day.

It's where ideas start, meeting notes live, and product discussions happen. Notion itself even recommends it as a central place for product specs, project overviews, and engineering documentation.

But I'm curious...

Have you ever opened a Notion page that you wrote six months ago and thought:

"Why did we make this decision?"

Or even:

"Is this still the latest version?"

It's not because Notion is missing features.

It's because software projects evolve much faster than documents do.

While building MySpec, we noticed the same thing. A feature doesn't just need documentation. It needs a process that keeps asking questions, captures decisions, tracks revisions, and lets the team refine requirements before implementation.

That's one of the reasons we built MySpec around an AI-guided interview instead of starting with a blank page.

Rather than expecting you to remember every edge case, constraint, or user scenario yourself, MySpec helps uncover them through structured conversations, then turns those discussions into implementation-ready specifications that can continue evolving with your project.

We're not trying to replace Notion.

We just found that, when it comes to building software, a blank document isn't always the best place to start.

I'm curious how other founders and developers handle this.

Do your product ideas still live comfortably in Notion, or have you found yourself needing something more structured as your projects grow?
