Docmost is a collaborative wiki and documentation platform designed for teams to create, organize, and share internal knowledge. It provides a modern editor with real-time collaboration and structured spaces, making it a practical alternative to tools like Confluence and Notion.
Key Features
- Real-time collaborative editing with live cursors and instant syncing
- Team spaces for organizing documentation by department, project, or domain
- RBAC-style permissions with groups and granular access controls
- Inline comments for discussions directly on pages
- Page history for tracking changes over time
- Built-in diagram support (Draw.io, Excalidraw, Mermaid)
- File attachments and rich embeds from external tools
- Full-text search across content
- Imports from Confluence, Notion, and HTML/Markdown files
- Multilingual UI with support for many translations
Use Cases
- Internal company wiki for policies, runbooks, and engineering docs
- Project documentation hub with permissions per team or space
- Publishing selected pages as a public-facing knowledge base
Limitations and Considerations
- Some functionality is reserved for an Enterprise Edition under a separate license from the AGPL-licensed core
Docmost combines collaborative editing, structured organization, and strong access controls to help teams manage documentation at scale. It is well-suited for organizations that want control over deployment and data while retaining a modern documentation experience.
