Slab
Freemium★ 4.6
Slite
Freemium★ 4.4
Slab and Slite are both modern team knowledge bases that position themselves as alternatives to Confluence and Notion. Slab wins on integration breadth with its Unified Search across GitHub, Jira, and Figma - making it the stronger choice for technical teams. Slite wins on async workflows and AI question answering with source citations - making it the stronger choice for remote teams that want fewer interruptions.
Feature Comparison
AI Search
Slite Ask returns direct answers with source citations - a question-and-answer experience rather than search-and-browse. Slab Unified Search is powerful but returns links, not direct answers.
Integration Depth
Slab Unified Search crosses GitHub, Jira, Figma, Loom, and Notion simultaneously. Slite has fewer third-party integrations and does not search connected tools.
Editor Quality
Both editors are clean and polished. Slab has a slight edge with richer embed support and a more refined writing experience for technical documentation.
Async and Remote Focus
Slite is designed explicitly for async-first teams - the AI Ask feature reduces time zone interruptions. Slab is async-friendly but less specifically optimised for distributed teams.
Pricing
Slab starts at $6.67/user/month (free up to 10 users). Slite starts at $8/user/month with a free tier. Comparable pricing at SMB scale.
Technical Documentation
Slab is the stronger choice for engineering and product teams with GitHub and Jira integration, topic organisation, and technical embed support.
Organisation Structure
Slab uses topic-based organisation that scales better than nested folders. Slite uses channel-style sections that feel familiar to Slack and Notion users.
Verdict
This comparison is context-dependent. Slab scores 30/35 and Slite scores 28/35. Choose based on your specific workflow needs.
