Here's what I'd actually recommend, in order.\n\n## Shared team notes & wiki\n\n**1. Notion** - the default for most remote teams, and for good reason: notes, wiki, databases, and project tracking in one place, with real-time editing and good permissions. Free tier works for small teams; Plus is $10/user/mo annual, Business $20/user/mo with full AI and enterprise search. The downside is the per-seat cost applies to everyone, including people who only read.\n\n**2. Coda** - pick this over Notion specifically if most of your team consumes rather than creates. Coda charges only \"Doc Makers\"; editors and viewers are free. For a 25-person team with 10 creators that's roughly $100/mo vs ~$212/mo on Notion. Docs feel more like living apps (tables, buttons, automations) than pages.\n\n**3. Confluence** - the right call if you're already on Jira/Atlassian. Cheapest at scale (Standard ~$5.42/user/mo, Premium ~$10.44), with proper space-level permissions and structure that holds up with hundreds of pages.
