Slite review

Slite is a company knowledge base built to keep internal documentation searchable and current. Teams store docs in one place, then use AI search to get ranked answers with citations from connected knowledge sources. The product description also says answers respect the user’s permissions, including when a third-party agent searches the material.

The upkeep workflow is a central part of the pitch: Slite flags potentially outdated facts, drafts documentation changes, and routes those drafts to document owners for review. It also supports scheduled document reviews and MCP access, so AI tools can search and work with verified company knowledge.

That makes Slite more focused on company documentation and reliable answers than on being an all-purpose personal productivity app. The pricing page lists a 14-day free trial, but no ongoing free plan. Basic starts at $10 per user per month with annual billing; monthly prices are not published.

Slite’s clearest advantage is the combination of knowledge search and documentation upkeep. Search can return cited answers from connected sources, while permission-aware results are intended to prevent users or third-party agents from seeing material they cannot access. That matters for teams where a single shared knowledge base contains information with different access rules.

The update workflow is more specific than a generic AI writing assistant: Slite identifies outdated documentation, drafts changes, and sends them to owners for approval. Scheduled reviews add a way to bring docs back to their owners rather than waiting for someone to notice stale guidance. MCP access extends verified company knowledge to AI tools, according to the product description.

Pricing is straightforward if annual billing works for the team. Basic is $10 per user per month and includes unlimited docs, 30 AI questions per seat per month, 30 AI edits per user per month, and 5GB storage per user. Pro is $20 per user per month, with search across connected tools, unlimited AI edits, 50 Agent credits per seat per month, and 10GB storage per user. The plans draw a clear line between organizing docs and searching connected tools.

There is no free plan, only a 14-day trial. Basic’s 30 AI questions per seat per month and 30 AI edits per user per month may be a meaningful ceiling for teams that expect frequent AI use. Pro raises the allowance to 50 Agent credits per seat per month, but the pricing details do not explain how many searches or actions a credit covers. Additional credits cost $10 per 100 and each top-up is valid for one year.

The annual prices are published; monthly billing prices are not. That makes it harder to compare the real cost of trying Slite without an annual commitment. Enterprise pricing is custom, and the listed features include a custom credit allowance, reader-only seats, audit logs, and SCIM provisioning.

Slite also has limited sentiment evidence in the Reddit discussions provided. One commenter in an Evernote thread called it a worse version of Notion, but that is a single opinion, not a useful comparison of current features. A separate productivity discussion was mainly about alternatives and did not establish a clear user consensus. We would not treat those threads as proof of either a migration win or a product weakness.

Slite has no free plan, but the pricing details list a 14-day free trial. Basic costs $10 per user per month when billed yearly; Pro costs $20. That doubles the seat price for connected-tool search, not just a small step up. Basic includes unlimited docs, 30 AI questions and 30 AI edits per seat per month, plus 5GB of storage per user. Pro includes search across connected tools, 50 Agent credits per seat per month, unlimited AI edits and 10GB per user.

Monthly billing prices are not published, so you can’t compare the monthly commitment from the listed rates. Enterprise pricing is custom; its listed features include reader-only seats, audit logs, SCIM provisioning and a custom credit allowance. If you need more credits, additional credits cost $10 per 100, with each top-up valid for one year. Extra seats are billed on the next invoice for monthly plans and prorated for yearly plans. Budget around annual seat pricing unless Slite confirms a monthly quote.

The published product details describe Slite’s knowledge base, connected-tool search and review workflows, but don’t specify import tools, export formats or migration support. Treat migration effort as an open question: before committing, ask Slite how it handles existing docs, attachments, permissions and links, and test a representative export. Don’t assume that connected-tool search means those sources are copied into Slite.

The same gap matters if you leave. Data portability and what happens to connected-source access are not documented on the vendor's site, so get clear answers before building processes around Slite’s AI or scheduled reviews. We also don’t have enough Reddit evidence to say why users typically leave; the available sentiment evidence is limited. That makes it hard to call lock-in a proven problem—or to claim switching out is easy. For a team weighing a move, verify migration and export terms directly, especially if the knowledge base will become the source for permission-aware answers.
