In this tutorial, you learn how to quickly add any kind of data to Notion - without having to manually copypaste or type it.
There is so much information that we could track and organise in Notion, but adding it can be a pain. If you're lucky, your information is in another tool with a great API so you can simply connect Notion to it.
But what about those situations where that isn't the case? Physical documents like letters or receipts? A PDF? Or even a screenshot from your phone?
Luckily, there's a simple workaround thanks to AI. AI excels when it comes to computer vision and it's super easy to leverage this to extract the relevant information.
All you need to do is use a tool like Relay.app that allows you to first extract information via AI and then sends that information to Notion.

It's a shame, that you've this less views with this quality content. Vielen Dank für deine Arbeit!
Getting there slowly! Thanks a lot for the compliment and kind words 😇
Loving the use case! I'm discovering Relay with your video and I'm impressed by the simplicity. Thanks Matthias!
Glad you liked it! Yeah it’s super cool, still needs a few additional features but they‘re on a great track! 😇
Got an idea for me what I should build next? 😎
I love all of the advanced features and ideas that you bring to the Notion community. Thank you for these very interesting videos. Please keep them coming!
Thank you so much! ☺️
Is there any specific use case that you‘d love to see in the future? ☺️
This is amazing. I’ve been searching for a way to quickly get written journal entries into notion without typing it out or clicking fields. Will test it out for my use case, thanks!
Let me know how this goes!
This will be even better with charts. Can't wait.
Ohhhh yess 😍😍
What would your first use case be?
@@mfreihaendig Personally show habits completion, with my student org probably task and project completion.
Thank you, very helpful video !
Glad to hear that! Anything else you‘d like me to cover in the future? ☺️
Brilliant thanks. I'd love to see how you wouuld process voice notes to Notion.
I‘ll add that to the list 😎 how do you typically capture them?
@@mfreihaendig Well actually now I don't have a system, I didn't find a nive and simple way to capture voice notes and send the text to Notion. I have seen serveral cumbersome systems with AI and Make but never tried to replicate them yet. Thanks
@@jcmoriaud Thomas Frank has a Voice Note to Notion capture, but you have to use pipedream which isn't too terribly difficult, and its all free. I have a feeling that @mfreihaendig could probably come up with a workflow that was much easier to follow and replicate.

😍 yay this is dumbed down enough for me 😅 thank you!
Ah so glad it was helpful and easy to follow! 😇
Hey Matthias! Thank you for the great tutorial. Can you help me, how can I use this method with multiple row documents. Forexample: I have a recipe with multiple rows and I want to add all of the rows to my notion. Is there any way for this?
This is really cool! I'm following it step by step and the issue I am running into is that when I am connecting to the notion page, it is not showing one of the fields I need. Any thoughts on shy this is? It is a URL link property
Do you know if you're able to separate the outputs into fields like that in Make? Or would you have to use Relay?
For that specific UI you need replay - in make, you‘d prompt it to respond in json and then parse the json before adding it to Notion 💪🏻
Can you do automation tutorials with n8n which has an open sourced version which we can even host ourselves?
Will add it to the list 😇
Thanks
Glad you enjoyed it! 😇
That’s a good way to help and I really appreciate your efforts to make things easier for everyone…
however, IMO, I don’t think it’s very useful… even when you use AI to extract information or data from whatever you’re adding to Notion, you need to review it anyway (you can’t rely on AI 100%… not yet anyway)… I think simple copy-paste or manually adding your information is much easier and faster than setting up a whole automation system on an AI tools that’s still “promising”, and you will review your data while you do it so you actually save time!!! 🤓
Fair point! I think it depends on the type of data that you need - particularly the vision api for OpenAI is quite reliable and if your data input is somewhat consistent, I wouldn’t feel the need to check that
Particular for a system where I mostly need it to be largely correct like the health data
For business data, I‘d still be fine with this - I’d only upload the file also and add that link to Notion so that once a month I can flip through things to check
Still faster than typing it manually I bet 😎
But totally see your point, still need human control to be sure
Do you know if it is capable of extracting data from multiple attachments or is it only singular?
Multiple should be fine in theory, but as with all things AI, I‘d reduce the risk of things not being processed by splitting the task, iterating over each entry and then processing it 💪🏻
@@mfreihaendigTried with multiple attachments and works fine! At least for now 😅, two attachments seem to work better using 4o model vs 3.5 so just gotta factor costs. Looks like Relay has a small cap with its internal feature.
So you are emailing a screenshot from your Ultrahuman app to relay everyday? Surely there is a better way.
Not without an API - that’s the only other way to get data out of tools easily
And this takes 4 clicks with a text expander, so not too much effort ;)
I love working with Relay and N8N
Oh nice! What are your favourite use cases so far? 😇
Hey Matthias ! I loved this video . I work with entrepreneurs like you who have under 15k subscribers to help them to grow to 100k subscribers in under 12 months with proper systems . I actually helped Chirag to achieve 92k subscribers in under 11 months . Could I do a free audit to see if I can help you do the same ? I just think it's really important that more people see your content and want to help you on that mission .
Not interested atm, but thanks for the offer! ☺️
