Evaluation
Notion scores 65/D on the Designesy Compliance Index — 16 of 42 checks passed, 4 failed, 9 warned, 10 skipped. The cohort mean is 69.3/D across 30 scored sites. Notion sits 6% below the cohort mean.
Strongest category: Identity at 100.0%. Weakest scored category: Motion at 37.5%. The gap between best and worst is the finding — most systems are strong in one dimension and absent in another.
The engine detected 544 custom properties at :root — a rich token layer. The question is whether those tokens are structured (primitive → semantic → component) or flat.
This evaluation is deterministic — no LLM, no human judgment, no survey. The same 42-check engine that scored Notion scores every site on the leaderboard. Re-score notion.so live to see if anything has changed since 2026-08-03.
