**Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe.**  
This is a summary list of features I am using heavily in Notion. The reason I write this is because the most requested features (Collaboration and API) are NOT what are holding me back from switching right now.

**Describe the solution you’d like**  
**Set Views** or Inline Databases  
I know you are aware of this, but the most important thing for me right now is a missing “Dashboard Type”

**Database Relations and Rollups**  
It would be great to have access to “relations two ways down”. If I relate an object with a Project for example I might want to show the Projects ID in the set view. (Improvement over Notion would be if I could edit that property directly from my object)

**Formulas**  
This is probably the most important for me right now. I am really missing formulas …

**Set Grouping**  
I like to have Database views with groups (like here [Life |](https://heye.earth/life))

And thats all, as far as I can tell. With these four features I would make the switch.

**Additional features**  
Don’t get me wrong, Collaboration and APIs are awesome, but I wish they would be implemented later.  
Some thoughts:  
I bet you are going to do collaboration extremely awesome. Have you thought about offering a service like super.so right off the box (I mean publishing as a static site, unlike Notions heavy loading time?)

API: Two way sync is very important, consider collaborating with [unito.io](http://unito.io) or build this in yourself

P.s.: If adding additional developers would significantly increase when these features roll out, please DM me, I would be willing to search developers for you …

Inline Sets/Databases are on the roadmap and currently under development, see the roadmap here: [What We're Working on in Q2H2](https://community.anytype.io/t/roadmap-18-apr-2022/5790)

Rollups and formula’s are sadly not on the roadmap, neither have I seen anyone talking about it coming, so that is a big questionmark for me. These are much needed features in my opinion and I hope that they will get added!

Set grouping while not on the roadmap, it has been seen on the official website as well as the mobile app having a Set Group button (that currently doesnt work and when clicked says coming soon).

There are already requests available for them

Rollups:

> [@Automatic Bi-directional linking + Rollups](https://community.anytype.io/t/automatic-bi-directional-linking-rollups/1600):
>
> Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe. In Notion there is a way to make two-way/synced relations. In Anytype there is currently no way to reflect a two-way relation directly in sets expect for having a normal-relation and then looking into the navigation dialog of an object to find out which relation is linking to this object of the same type. But I think this can be a bit clunky if you want to use some sort of two-way relation. Describe the solution you’d like I can t…

Formulas:

> [@Derived Relations ( Formulas )](https://community.anytype.io/t/derived-relations-formulas/1554):
>
> Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe. An option to create derived relations based on the value of another relation of the same object Describe the solution you’d like Derived relations are basically formulas from notion. A simple derived relation editor with built-in functions to perform operations on the other relations assigned to the object. This enables the relations to be more dynamic and brings more flexibility to anytype. To improve on it, an option to add cust…
