## The answer, as recorded

Asked on 2026-10-08 through Claude (Anthropic) with web search (model claude-opus-5).

> Two different tools get called "note taking for remote teams," so here's both, in the order I'd actually reach for them.
> 
> ## Shared notes / team knowledge base
> 
> **1. Notion** - My default recommendation. It's less a note app than a workspace that happens to take notes: shared docs, wikis, databases, and project boards in one connected system, with real-time collaborative editing and comments. For a remote team the killer feature is that meeting notes, the project they belong to, and the resulting tasks can live in the same place instead of three apps. Downside: it gets messy without someone owning the structure.
> 
> **2. Confluence** - The pick if you're already on Atlassian. Deep Jira integration, granular permissions, and enterprise-grade security make it the better choice for larger or compliance-conscious teams. Less pleasant to write in than Notion, but far better at being an organized, searchable system of record years later.
> 
> **3. Google Docs + Drive** - Boring and genuinely fine. If your team is small and already on Workspace, a shared folder of dated meeting notes beats a tool nobody adopts. Best-in-class simultaneous editing and commenting; the weakness is structure and find
