Microsoft's collaboration app is now out of preview and available on its app store. Microsoft Loop allows you to organize your content from different Microsoft 365 apps into workspaces and pages. Based on the screenshots, it reminds me a bit of Notion.

Microsoft Loop has what it calls components, which are the content you place within a project. You can share these components with other people. It means you don't have to share an entire workspace or project if you don't want. Initially, this app was only available for work accounts. But now, it gained support for personal accounts on Android and iOS.
