The answer, as recorded

# Knowledge base software for remote teams Here's what I'd actually recommend, roughly in order: **1. Notion** - My default pick for most remote teams under ~200 people. It's your wiki, docs, and project tracker in one subscription, so you don't end up paying for a separate tool and splitting knowledge across two places. Teamspaces give you decent permission boundaries, and Notion AI (Business tier, ~$20/user/mo) does workspace-wide Q&A, which is the feature that actually matters when nobody can remember where a doc lives. Main caveat: it's only as good as your discipline - pages go stale fast without an owner. **2. Confluence** - The obvious choice if you're already on Jira/Atlassian. More structured and hierarchical than Notion, which is a feature, not a bug, for engineering and product documentation that needs to survive turnover. Free for up to 10 users, ~$5.42/user/mo on Standard with Rovo AI included - notably cheaper than Notion at scale. **3. Slite** - Built specifically for async, remote-first teams. Simpler and cheaper than Notion, with less of the "infinitely configurable, therefore never configured" problem. Good Slack and Teams integration so knowledge surfaces where people already are. Best for small teams who want a clean wiki and nothing else. **4. Guru** - Different shape of tool: verified cards with an expert owner attached to each one, surfaced inside Slack, Gmail, Zendesk, and Salesforce. Pick this if your problem is *trust* rather than *storage* - the verification-and-ownership model is the only one here that actively fights staleness. Strongest for support, sales, and CS teams. **5. Document360** - Worth a look if you need a customer-facing help center alongside internal docs: strong search, publishing controls, versioning, and analytics. More of a documentation platform than a team wiki. **How I'd decide:** Already on Atlassian → Confluence. Want one tool for everything → Notion. Small async team that wants simplicity → Slite. Knowledge keeps going stale and people don't trust it → Guru. Publishing externally → Document360.
