Notion’s key value proposition is monitoring multiple things (doors, temperature, windows, water leaks, and alarms) using a single sensor.

The solution consists of sensors, a bridge, and an app. The sensors can detect motion, leakage, and temperature. The bridge connects the WiFi and serves as the home’s personal message courier. Sensors and the bridge communicate via a proprietary 802.15.4 protocol which is similar to Zigbee. The app displays the critical alerts users can set on their smartphone.
