Convert Handwriting to Notion

Remember a few weeks ago when I mentioned we could now use Notion AI to analyze PDFs? Well, I hadn't thought of it at the time, but we can apply the same principle to analyze handwriting and import it into Notion.

  1. Take a picture of your handwritten note
  2. Open Notion AI
  3. Click "Attach file" and select your picture
  4. Ask Notion AI to "Create a new Notion page based on the data in this picture"
  5. Click "Save" and choose the desired location

To be honest, I thought the results wouldn't be great. So I tried it with my own handwriting—which is very bad, doctor-level unreadable.

And it works amazingly well! It's not perfect, but remember, my handwriting is atrocious. It even recognized that I had a to-do list and added the corresponding checkboxes, correctly marking items as checked or unchecked.
