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.
