## The answer, as recorded

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

> "Note-taking for remote teams" usually means one of two different things, so here are my picks in both lanes.
> 
> ## Shared notes / team wiki (the default read)
> 
> 1. **Notion** - my first recommendation for most remote teams under ~200 people. The block editor is the best of the bunch, databases let meeting notes, projects, and docs live in one linked system, and permissions scale well enough for a whole-company OS. Caveat: AI is only bundled at the Business tier (~$15/user/mo annual); Plus at ~$8 doesn't include it.
> 2. **Confluence** - pick this instead if your team is engineering-heavy and already on Jira, or if you're 100+ people with compliance requirements. Spaces and page hierarchy impose structure Notion won't, search has real operators, and it's cheaper at entry (~$5.42/user/mo annual). Less pleasant to write in.
> 3. **Coda** - the right call when your docs need to *do* something: genuinely relational tables, cross-table lookups, and conditional logic make it a lightweight no-code app platform. Best for ops teams building trackers and internal tools inside a doc.
> 4. **Google Keep** - not a serious wiki, but worth naming if all you actually want is quick shared capture of ideas a
