Suggested field types

Specificity means specific actions feel more intentional and designed-for-purpose. Notion’s suggested field types use this by matching fields to context, which boosts input quality and user confidence.

Progressive Disclosure is showing complexity gradually. Notion only suggests relevant fields as you create a table, so users aren’t overwhelmed by all possible options at once.

Default Bias shows people often accept suggested or default options. Notion’s smart suggestions nudge users to pick useful fields, which can improve setup speed and data quality.

Linear uses a similar pattern by suggesting tags when certain keywords are typed. Both help users add better metadata by predicting what’s most relevant in the moment.

Etsy also shows dynamic suggestions in gift search, helping users who may not know what to enter. Both Notion and Etsy lower friction by guiding users with smart, timely prompts.
