Docmost
What it is
Docmost is open-source collaborative wiki and documentation software for teams editing shared knowledge in real time. Multiple users can work on a page together with live cursors and instant synchronization. Bases organize structured content in table or Kanban views with properties, filters, sorts, and formulas. The editor includes Draw.io, Excalidraw, and Mermaid diagram tools, and listed integrations or embeds include Figma, Airtable, Google Drive, Google Sheets, Miro, Loom, and Typeform. Teams can import content from Confluence, Notion, HTML, and Markdown files. AI features include chat, search, and writing assistance, using cloud models or local LLMs such as Ollama; MCP is also supported. Docmost can run on customer infrastructure, and its documentation says data stays on those servers. It offers version history and SSO support, plus web, API, and self-hosted options. The Community edition is open source. Business is listed at $6 a month, billed at $6 per seat monthly on an annual basis, with a 10-seat minimum. Docker Compose with PostgreSQL and Redis is the recommended installation method.
