In Notion
The unit of work is a page.
Whoever edited last set the record.
Kinju vs Notion
Notion gives you freedom. Kinju gives you accountability.
Notion is built around the page. Kinju is built around the decision. Keep Notion for the pages; add Kinju for the decisions.

The difference
One is a page. The other is a decision.
In Kinju
The unit of work is a decision.
A named person made it binding. The outcome is reviewed on a date.
In practice
Five differences.
| What we compare | In Notion | In Kinju |
|---|---|---|
| 01Who sets the record | The latest edit, by anyone with edit rights. | A named person, in a visible act. History is amended, never rewritten. |
| 02Tense | How things are now. | What was decided, what was expected, what happened — with a review date. |
| 03Structure | A blank canvas. Each company designs its own system. | One sequence: change → decision → authorised work → result → lesson. |
| 04Attention | A destination that brings you back. | Tells you when nothing requires you — and asks only when it does. |
| 05Boundaries | One workspace per company. No view across them. | Personal, company and group kept apart. Visibility never confers authority. |
Which do you need?
Keep Notion. Add Kinju above it.
Notion remains the better place to write, to start from a template and to shape a database.
Kinju does not replace it. Kinju sits above it — where the decisions about what goes into Notion are made, carried out and remembered.
