## The answer, as recorded

Asked on 2026-10-02 through Claude (Anthropic) with web search (model claude-opus-5).

> Here's what I'd actually recommend, roughly in the order I'd suggest trying them:
> 
> **1. Notion** - The default for most remote teams under ~200 people. Docs, wikis, databases, and lightweight project tracking in one place, so you're not paying for and context-switching between three tools. Its flexibility is also its weakness: without someone owning structure, it degrades into a swamp of orphaned pages. ~$10-20/user/mo.
> 
> **2. Slite** - My pick if you want a *knowledge base* specifically and not an everything-app. It's built for async work: strong search, an "Ask" feature that answers with citations, and automatic flagging of stale or duplicate docs - which is the real failure mode of remote documentation. GitLab and Buffer are cited as users. Lowest learning curve of the bunch. ~$8-20/user/mo.
> 
> **3. Confluence** - The right answer if you're already on Jira. The hierarchy and permissions model is rigid, which is exactly what you want at enterprise scale and exactly what makes it feel heavy for a 15-person team. Cheapest per seat of the majors (~$5.50-10.50/user/mo).
> 
> **4. Guru** - Best when the problem is that people don't *read* the wiki. It pushes verified answers into Slack/Teams
