### Key Observations for Fieldwork

1. Notion is ALL IN on AI — 24% of their ads (5/21) are AI-focused, and it's increasing (3 of the 5 started in April)
2. Zero ads target ops teams specifically — their audience is "everyone"
3. They actively position against Airtable in NT-003 (Airtable icon gets an X mark)
4. Strongest creative is NT-012 ("tool graveyard" with tombstones) — boldest in either competitor's portfolio
5. They never show structured data workflows — pure docs/wiki/projects play
6. TCO/cost argument (NT-020: "$1,200/person/year") is a newer angle for them (Apr 11)
