- Worth the price (main value)
An internal knowledge base that keeps every doc version, shows who read a doc and asks owners to re-verify docs, from $10 per member billed yearly.
Slite is built for a company’s internal docs rather than published sites. Its Basic plan, $10 per member billed yearly, keeps each doc’s full history, shows views and, once an admin turns it on, who viewed a doc, and adds a verification workflow so owners re-check docs before they go stale. Ask answers questions from your docs in natural language. All production data is hosted in the EU, and the security page lists SOC 2 Type II.
- History and viewers on the entry planBasic includes doc history from creation and doc insights with views, unique visitors and a viewer list.Evidence: Pricing page and help center (2026-10-15)

- Best for
- Teams that want a focused internal wiki where docs stay current and they can see who read them, and that are comfortable with EU hosting.
- Good to know
- There is no free plan, every member is billed until Enterprise reader-only seats, and SSO on Pro uses OpenID Connect rather than SAML.

No free plan, readers billed until Enterprise and admin controls on Enterprise are what lower its score. | From its public pages, Confluence puts the most security-review controls on its first paid plan and keeps every page version. Budget for Atlassian Guard if you need SAML SSO, and compare monthly and annual billing at your team size. | From its public pages, Notion is the broadest workspace here, with open export formats on every plan and viewer analytics on Plus. Paying for every member and keeping audit logs and residency on Enterprise are what hold its score back. | From its public pages, Coda (now Superhuman Docs) costs the least here when few people create docs, because Editors and Viewers are free. Admin, analytics and compliance controls sit on Enterprise, which is what lowers its score. |

Review
Review from public pages
Written from Slite's public pages (pricing, security or privacy, and docs) as read on Oct 15, 2026. We did not sign up, and no hands-on run is published yet.
What the public pages show
We read Slite's pricing page, its security page and help center articles on SSO, guests, roles, billing, doc history, doc insights, exports and backups on Oct 15, 2026; we did not sign up for this review. The pricing page lists Basic at $10 per user a month and Pro at $20, both billed yearly, and Enterprise through sales. No monthly rate appears, although the billing help describes switching from a monthly to a yearly plan. There is no free plan: sign-up starts a 14-day trial of Basic and Pro with no card required.
The plan table puts most of the wiki on Basic: doc history, doc verification and ownership, doc insights, workspace analytics, Ask with 30 questions per seat a month, the public API and MCP access. Pro adds the Slite Agent, search across connected tools and SSO through OpenID Connect for Okta, Azure AD and others. Reader-only seats, SCIM, the audit log and HIPAA are on Enterprise. Guests are free, up to 5 per paying member.
The security page lists SOC 2 Type II and says all production data is hosted in the EU, on Google Cloud in Belgium; it mentions no ISO certification and no choice of region. It also refers to a "Knowledge Suite" plan for enforced SSO, a name the pricing page does not use. We found no SAML option on the pages we read.
Strengths
- Full doc history on every plan
The help center says doc history shows every change since a doc was created, with restore.
vs Notion: Notion keeps 30 days on Plus; Coda 30 days on Pro.
- See who read a doc
Doc insights show views and unique visitors on Basic, and a viewer list once an admin enables it.
vs Confluence: Confluence Standard shows view counts; its viewers list needs Premium.
- Keeping docs current
Doc verification, doc ownership and the Knowledge Management Panel are on every plan.
- Workspace backup in open formats
The workspace owner can request a Markdown or HTML backup, or a monthly automatic Markdown backup.
Compared: Coda’s bulk export covers only your own docs.
Things to know
- No free plan
After the 14-day trial, a paid plan is needed to keep using Slite.
- Readers are billed until Enterprise
Reader-only seats are an Enterprise feature; on Basic and Pro every member is billed. Guests are free but meant for external collaborators.
- SSO is OpenID Connect, not SAML
Pro includes SSO through OpenID Connect for Okta, Azure AD, OneLogin and others; the pages list no SAML option. SCIM and the audit log are Enterprise only.
- No region choice or ISO certification stated
All production data is hosted in the EU; the security page lists SOC 2 Type II but no ISO 27001.
Pricing reality
Slite bills per member: Basic $10 a month and Pro $20, billed yearly; the pricing page lists no monthly rate. For 30 people on Basic that is 30 × $10 = $300 a month ($3,600 a year); on Pro, with the Slite Agent and OpenID Connect SSO, $600. Reader-only seats, which would leave readers unbilled, are an Enterprise feature priced by sales. Guests are free, up to 5 per paying member. On yearly plans, members added during the term are prorated each month; removed members free a licence, and the lower count applies at renewal. Ask on Basic is limited to 30 questions per seat a month; Pro includes 50 monthly credits per seat for the agent.
Exit path
Single docs export as PDF, Markdown or HTML, without history or comments. The workspace owner can request a backup of the whole workspace as Markdown or HTML, or turn on a monthly Markdown backup; files over 200 MiB are left out.
