1. 30 July 2026 · corrected by Emir Baycan

   Corrected a mistaken attribution for a person unaffiliated with the company described, along with a number of internal statistics and dates that could not be verified.

   What the page claimed

   Article attributed a 'Head of Research' role and specific productivity statistics to Marie Prokopets at Notion, though she is actually co-founder of Nira and is not affiliated with Notion. It also included internal studies for Roam Research, Superhuman, and Coda that could not be verified, altered Notion's and Roam's founding and revenue dates, and attached specific statistics to Cal Newport and Sophie Leroy that could not be verified in their published research.

   What was corrected

   Removed the Marie Prokopets/Notion attribution and the associated statistics entirely, corrected Notion's valuation timeline (roughly $2B in April 2020 to $10B in October 2021, not $1M to $10B) and revenue timeline ($67M ARR was reported in 2022, not 2020, with $250M following in 2023), corrected Roam Research's founding year (2019, not 2020) and ARR milestone (about six weeks, not four months), removed an unverifiable 2021 usage study, removed unverifiable Superhuman and Coda internal-research claims while preserving accurate facts such as Superhuman's $30/month pricing, and replaced the statistics attached to Cal Newport and Sophie Leroy with accurately hedged descriptions of their actual published work.

   Why: Verified against Forbes coverage of Notion's funding rounds, Indie Hackers' documented account of Roam Research reaching $1M ARR, and public biographical records for Marie Prokopets (LinkedIn, Nira) showing no affiliation with Notion.

   Microsoft 2023 Work Trend Index found ~57% communication and ~43% creation; the article inverted the two figures

   Before

   knowledge workers spend just 57 percent of their time on actual productive work. The remaining 43 percent disappears into communication overhead.

   After

   knowledge workers spend just 43 percent of their time on actual productive work. The remaining 57 percent disappears into communication overhead.

   Why: Content already correctly fixed on the page (verified: '43 percent of their time on actual productive' and '57 percent disappears into communication' both present, matching Microsoft's 2023 Work Trend Index figures in the correct order). FAQ field checked, no related content. Backfilling before/after for the record.
