🚀Launching: passwords for Notion pages
Hey everyone!
Launching Sotion.so, password protection for Notion pages.
I made this because:
- I noticed that a bunch of people on the Notion subreddit are asking for this feature
- It's on Super.so's roadmap so it's probably something their users are asking for
- One of my Cloakist customers asked if I could put their Notion pages (actually hosted via Super) behind a password
You can try Sotion.so out here:
(The password is Sotion, and it'll take you through to the landing page.)
Would love to hear your feedback!

Nice! But why not "Potion.so"?
Same reason it's not "Lotion.so"?
P as in password, potion is a word where a potion illustration could be used. I was just wondering, since it was available
Great question - basically a fellow indie hacker is making https://addpotion.so/ and I didn't want to mess him up!
Ah alright, gotcha :D
Oh, nice. I would use this.
But $12p/m for Super with a bunch of stuff and possibly passwords down the line.
Then $20 p/m for just password protection, feels pricey.
Yeah, that's fair. I figured I'd start high and see what demand's like. Great bargaining - I'll cut you a deal at $10/m!
I also just decreased the price on the landing page to that coz why not eh.
Congrats on the launch! I have a question:
How are you handling payments from users ? I saw the price is 10/mo but no way to purchase on the website. Is this something you are handling manually via email ?
Yes, exactly - I handle that by sending Stripe Checkout links to subscribers. Still extremely early-stage so not implementing a payment solution on the site just yet

Yeesh! Thanks a lot for pointing that out. Working on a fix
It's a nice project and would love to feature on Notion GMT+8 community.
I'm wondering if you'd head over to the memberstack / memberspace direction instead of just an auth wall?
Thanks a lot Felix! Would love to be featured. If there's anything I can do to help with that, please feel free to email me at [email protected]
I would definitely consider heading in that direction if people seem interested. As a next step I'm planning to launch a feature which will make Sotion DocSend for Notion.
(In other words - no password, but people have to put in their email to get access. And an additional option will be: only a certain list of emails can get access.)
Nice :) It's my pleasure.
Would you be keen on jumping on a 20-mins virtual coffee to discover future ideas / roadmap for your project?

Yes, I 100% would. Will tweet you now
