TinyIntranet
The Simplest Intranet for Small Business.
(Based on Google Apps & Notion)
Sometimes Less is More.
Small businesses don't need rocket science solutions. They need functional solutions that are easy and inexpensive. That's why we recommend using low-cost and open source technologies like Google and Notion.
"Introducing TinyIntranets... the first small business social intranet that helps you organize all of your business tools and information into one central Portal using Notion."
Make Some Magic
What's the alchemy to create a TinyIntranet ? Go ahead and use the best free tools you can find from SaaS vendors like Google. Then use Google authentication to log in to Notion for ultimate security. You are then logged in to a Notion portal that can point to all Google resources, and the magic begins.
Easy Customization
Your portal pages are Notion pages. Make them as simple or fancy as you like. Either way, they are easily customized through drag-and-drop. Here is an example of a simple portal page:

Notion and Google together are more extensible than you can imagine. Knock yourself out!
Got Google Apps?
If you're already using Google Apps, you're half way to a TinyIntranet. Notion is one of the most popular no-code tools being used by ordinary people to create amazing business solutions. . Combining Google Apps with a Notion portal creates a nicely integrated collaboration platform.
A TinyIntranet is Perfect If:
- You want greater productivity. How much more productive will your organization be when your employees have access to all information, documentation, and communications from one central place?
- You want the ultimate in flexibility. Use dozens of Notion solution marketplaces to find exactly the kind of business solution you are looking for, and then customize it exactly to your needs.
- You want more features and benefits for less money. If you always thought that a small business intranet was beyond your budget or time constraints, we have a surprise for you!
- You want "Easy Peasy". Most intranets require you to pull all of your documentation and information into the vendor's proprietary database. A TinyIntranet allows you to leave everything in Google Drive and Notion, and then just link to it from Notion. So there's no import. Easy! And if you ever need to move your content to a bigger system later, your files will already be nicely organized for import, lickity-split.
