Bottom line: Slite scores 3.9/5 — a focused, low-maintenance AI knowledge base that does internal documentation well, especially for small and mid-size teams that don't need a sprawling all-in-one workspace.
What is Slite?
Slite is an AI-powered knowledge base and team wiki built by the Paris-based company of the same name, founded in 2016 and part of Y Combinator's W18 batch. It gives teams a clean, distraction-free place to write and organize the documentation a company runs on — onboarding guides, processes and SOPs, project docs, meeting notes, and company policies — and then uses AI to keep that knowledge accurate over time. Slite positions itself as "the self-maintaining knowledge base your team and agents can trust," and that promise of verified, always-fresh documentation is what sets it apart from a generic docs tool.
Its headline AI feature is Ask, an assistant that answers questions in natural language by pulling directly from your documents. On the Basic plan Ask searches within Slite docs; on Pro and Enterprise it can search across connected tools like Slack, Jira, and Google Drive, turning scattered company knowledge into a single answerable source. The newer Slite Agent goes further: it monitors connected sources (Slack, Linear, GitHub, and your codebase) to detect when reality drifts away from what your docs say, drafts the fix, and routes the suggestion to the right owner. A doc verification workflow lets teammates mark content as verified so readers know what to trust.
Slite is priced per user — Basic at $10/user/month and Pro at $20/user/month (billed yearly), with custom Enterprise pricing — and offers a 14-day free trial rather than a permanent free plan. It competes with all-in-one workspaces like Notion and dedicated knowledge platforms like Guru, Confluence, and Slab, as well as enterprise search tools like Glean. Slite's niche is deliberately narrow: it is not a project manager or a database tool, but for small and mid-size teams that want a fast, opinionated internal wiki that stays accurate with minimal upkeep, it is one of the cleaner options in 2026.

Best For
Small and mid-size teams that want a focused internal wiki for onboarding, processes, and policies without the complexity of an all-in-one workspace. Remote and async-first companies that need a single, trustworthy source of truth their team can search and rely on. Support, product, and engineering teams that want documentation kept accurate automatically, with AI detecting drift and suggesting fixes. Companies migrating off cluttered Notion or Confluence setups who value a clean editor and verified, low-maintenance knowledge over maximum flexibility.
📋 Good to know
Sign up at slite.com, import existing docs from Notion, Confluence, or ClickUp, then connect tools like Slack and Google Drive so Ask can search across them.
Content is stored on Slite's cloud. AI features send document context to LLM providers for processing. Enterprise plans add advanced security controls, audit logs, and SCIM provisioning.
Move from Basic to Pro ($20/user/mo) when you need unlimited Ask, cross-tool search, the Slite Agent, doc fact-checking, or SSO.
Low — the editor is deliberately simple. Most of the value comes from setting up verification and connecting sources so AI answers stay accurate.

FAQ
Is Slite free?
Slite does not offer a permanent free plan in 2026. Instead, it provides a 14-day free trial with full access to Basic and Pro features and no credit card required. After the trial, you choose a paid plan: Basic at $10/user/month or Pro at $20/user/month, both billed yearly. If a free forever plan is essential, alternatives like Coda or Notion have free tiers.
How much does Slite cost?
Slite has two published plans plus Enterprise. Basic is $10/user/month and Pro is $20/user/month, both billed yearly. Basic includes unlimited docs and Ask AI within Slite (30 questions/mo per seat); Pro adds unlimited Ask with cross-tool search, the Slite Agent, doc fact-checking, 50 monthly credits per seat, SSO, and a custom domain. Enterprise is custom-priced and adds reader-only seats, audit logs, an SLA, and SCIM provisioning.
What is the Slite "Ask" AI assistant?
Ask is Slite's AI assistant that answers questions in natural language using your documentation. You type a question and Ask returns an answer drawn from your docs, with references to the source pages. On the Basic plan it searches within Slite; on Pro and Enterprise it can search across connected tools like Slack, Jira, and Google Drive, so it functions as a company-wide answer engine rather than a simple search box.
Slite vs Notion — which should I choose?
Choose Slite if you want a focused, low-maintenance knowledge base that keeps docs verified and accurate, with a clean editor and strong AI search. Choose Notion if you need an all-in-one workspace with databases, project management, and a huge template ecosystem. Slite wins on simplicity and self-maintaining documentation; Notion wins on flexibility and breadth. Many teams that feel their Notion workspace has become cluttered migrate to Slite for documentation specifically.
What is Slite best for?
Slite is best for small and mid-size teams that need a trustworthy internal wiki for onboarding guides, processes, project docs, and company policies. It is especially strong for remote and async-first companies that want a single source of truth, and for support, product, and engineering teams that want documentation kept fresh automatically. It is not designed for project management, spreadsheets, or databases.
Does Slite have a free trial?
Yes. Slite offers a 14-day free trial that unlocks both Basic and Pro features, with no credit card required to start. This lets you test Ask, the Slite Agent, doc verification, and cross-tool search before committing to a paid plan. After 14 days you'll need to pick Basic ($10/user/mo), Pro ($20/user/mo), or Enterprise to keep using it.
