Page Creation Rate = New Pages Created / Time Period
Page Creation Rate measures the volume of new pages created in Notion over time. It tracks creation patterns by workspace area, team, and page type to reveal how actively teams are documenting their work, decisions, and knowledge.

How to calculate page creation rate
Why page creation rate matters for Notion users
Page creation is the leading indicator of knowledge capture. An active creation rate suggests that teams are documenting as they work, building an organisational knowledge base that persists beyond individual memory. Declining rates may signal documentation fatigue or process breakdown.
For Notion teams, creation rate analysis reveals which teams and workspace areas are actively growing and which have gone quiet. It helps knowledge management leads identify areas needing documentation drives and teams that may benefit from templates or writing support.
Understand and act on page creation rate with KPI Tree
KPI Tree calculates page creation rates from your Notion data warehouse. Place this alongside abandonment rate in your knowledge capture tree to see the full picture of creation versus follow-through.
Assign RACI ownership to knowledge management leads for documentation targets. Set alerts when creation rates decline in critical knowledge areas.

Page Abandonment Rate
Knowledge ManagementMetric Definition
Abandonment Rate = (Abandoned Pages / Total Pages Created) × 100
Page Abandonment Rate measures the percentage of Notion pages that are created but receive minimal subsequent editing or engagement. Abandoned pages typically have a single initial edit session followed by no further activity, indicating content that was started but never completed.
Page Edit Frequency
Knowledge ManagementMetric Definition
Page Edit Frequency = Total Edits / Time Period
Page Edit Frequency tracks how often Notion pages receive edits over time. It distinguishes between living documents that are regularly updated and static content that, once created, is rarely revisited. High-frequency edits indicate actively maintained content.
Template Usage Rate
Knowledge ManagementMetric Definition
Template Usage Rate = (Pages Created from Templates / Total New Pages) × 100
Template Usage Rate measures the proportion of new Notion pages created from templates versus blank pages. It reflects how well standardised content formats are adopted across the organisation and which templates are most and least used.
User Activity Score
Knowledge ManagementMetric Definition
User Activity Score quantifies how actively individuals engage with Notion by combining signals such as page views, edits, comments, database interactions, and content creation into a normalised activity score. It reflects both the breadth and depth of platform engagement.
