## The use case: how Candidly deploys Notion

Candidly's product team uses a Notion task board to manage Cursor coding agents alongside product and engineering staff, with each ticket linking to PRDs, decisions and documentation. They also use agents that read the codebase and write into Notion to keep product documentation current for Sales, Customer Success and Support.

Summary written by usedby from the source page, in English. The figures are those of Notion and Candidly, not ours.

> Ben combined planning data, Jira tickets, and GitHub commits to measure customer value delivered over time. His analysis found that Candidly’s EPD organization shipped 73% more value per employee after adopting agents—even as the team became more than 25% smaller.

- **41%**: “Building this way has reduced the time it takes to deliver a full user story by about 10 days, making development 41% more efficient.”
- **90 minutes**: “PMs spend roughly 90 minutes per week reviewing documentation work, down from about 10 hours spent repeatedly reconstructing and rewriting it.”
- **$2.5 billion**: “Candidly has generated more than $2.5 billion in impact on users’ finances.”

> Notion isn’t just where our documents live anymore—it’s where the work happens.
