Over the past four years, I’ve worked with all kinds of clients—startups, solo founders, creators, product teams.
But one type of client stands out. One I didn’t necessarily expect when I started building Notion websites:
Venture capital firms.
And the request is almost always the same:
“We want to create a resource hub for our portfolio companies.Something our founders can actually use.”
At first glance, their reasoning is simple.
They’re already using Notion internally—for everything from deal flow to team onboarding.
Notion has quietly become the default workspace across their operations:
- Internal documentation
- Project and deal tracking
- Knowledge bases
- Operational playbooks
- Meeting notes, decks, templates—you name it
So when the idea of a founder-facing portal comes up, Notion feels like the obvious solution.
There’s no need to onboard a new tool.
Their team knows how to use it.
Their founders know how to navigate it.
And updating it? As easy as editing a doc.
So far, so good.
But then the second question comes up.
“Can we make it look... better?”
And this is where things usually shift.
Because what these firms quickly realize is:
A Notion page doesn’t look like a product.
It’s functional—but not branded.
Familiar—but not premium.
Great for working, but underwhelming for presenting.
That’s the problem with using Notion out of the box.
It doesn’t represent your brand the way you want it to—especially not in front of founders, partners, or LPs.
What VCs want isn’t just a workspace.
They want something that feels like a real platform, clean, sleek, and professional.
A founder portal that reflects their values, their brand, and the quality of their network.
That’s where Super.so comes in.
What Is Super.so?
Super is a modern website builder that transforms your Notion pages into fast, functional websites—styled to match your brand.
It connects directly to your Notion workspace and lets you control how your site looks, behaves, and performs—without writing code.
Think of it as a layer that takes Notion’s simplicity and turns it into something beautiful, fast, and easy to use.
1. Seamless with Notion
Super integrates directly with Notion.
You continue managing all your content inside Notion—just like you’re already doing.
There’s no need for a new CMS or complex workflows.
It feels like an extension of your existing setup.
2. Lightning-Fast Deployment
Traditional web projects can take weeks—or months.
With Super, I’ve helped clients go live within a week.
You build your content in Notion. Super takes care of the rest—instantly.
No long dev cycles. No bottlenecks.
3. Full Branding Control
Super supports custom CSS, which means you can:
- Match your exact brand fonts and colors
- Style headers, buttons, and navigation
- Use custom layouts
- Add branded visuals and interactions
This is one of the biggest reasons VCs love it—it doesn’t look like a “Notion page” anymore.
4. No-Code, Cost-Effective
You don’t need to hire a developer to maintain your portal.
Your ops team can manage updates on their own.
This keeps costs down and makes the system future-proof.
5. Fast & Lightweight
Super-built sites are fast.
They’re mobile-friendly, SEO-optimized, and have better performance than sharing raw Notion links.
Plus, you can use a custom domain with SSL.
6. Built-In Analytics & Page Protection
Super includes built-in analytics, so you can track which pages are getting used (and which aren’t).
You can also password-protect specific sections—or the entire portal.
If you're a VC, accelerator, or innovation team already using Notion internally—Super is the fastest and cleanest way to build a founder portal that reflects your value.
You don’t need to reinvent the wheel. You just need to build a better version of the one you're already using.
And that starts by taking Notion seriously—not just as a workspace, but as a resource hub for your partners, investors etc.
If you’re ready to build something better, let’s talk I’d be happy to show you how.
