The Guru alternative that keeps knowledge accurate, not just verified
Verification tells you a document was right on the day someone checked it. Slite Agent checks your documentation against Slack, GitHub, Jira and your other tools, drafts the update, and sends it to the owner to approve. Your team stays in charge of every change.

Answers your team can check
Some Guru reviewers report that its AI answers and search don't always hit the mark. In Slite, every answer shows its sources, verified documents rank first, and Slite Agent skips Outdated documents when it searches. On Pro, it also searches 100+ connected tools, like Slack, Google Drive and Jira.
A knowledge base, not a stack of cards
Guru stores knowledge as cards, and reviewers call the editor rigid. Slite is a full editor anyone can write in, with long documents, collections, sketches and embeds. So documentation doesn't stay with one team: it's designed to be used by 100% of employees in teams of hundreds.
Easier to test the waters
Guru is sales-only and asks for a $50K minimum just to get a demo. Slite offers a free demo, so you can see it on your own use cases before you commit. Enterprise teams can also start with a pilot on their own data. Start with one team, grow from there, and be up and running in days.
One source of truth, kept accurate
Can we bring everything into one place?
Yes. Import from Confluence, Notion, Google Drive or files, and on Pro search across 100+ connected tools. Your team gets documentation and search in one product.
How does documentation stay accurate?
Your team keeps ownership: every document has an owner, a review cycle and a "Verified by" label. Then Slite Agent does the chasing: it checks your documentation against 100+ connected tools, finds what changed and drafts the update for the owner.
Do we stay in charge of what changes?
Yes. Your experts have the last say on every important document change. Slite Agent sends each suggestion to the owner with a before and after and the reason for the change. Approve it in one click, dismiss it, or handle them all at once.
Can our AI tools use it too?
Yes. Slite's MCP server gives Claude, ChatGPT and Cursor read and write access, on every plan. Document history shows who made each change, a person or an AI tool, and edits made through MCP are labelled.
“With 20 years in software development and support, I've worked with a number of wiki platforms. Slite is by far the easiest to enter information into and format it in a human readable way. This has led to widespread company utilization across departments, making it an invaluable business tool.”
Sounds great, but I have a few questions...
Guru also has verification and AI agents. How is Slite different?
Guru's knowledge agents are something your team builds: agent settings, skills, prompts and quality rules. So someone has to know how document updates should work. Slite Agent comes ready to be your team's knowledge manager, built on 10 years of making knowledge tools. Turn it on for a document or collection, pick the sources to watch, and it does the rest.
Finding your way around Guru can be confusing. How does Slite's navigation work?
Documentation lives in channels and nested documents, like folders. Inactive documents fade out in the sidebar, and archived ones stay hidden until you need them. Or skip browsing: search any document by keyword, or ask Slite Agent and get an answer with its sources.
Which knowledge should live in Slite?
The documentation that has to stay true: SOPs, policies, handbooks, processes and product specs. Drafts, chats and tickets can stay where they are or be moved to Slite for easy access. On Pro, Slite Agent also searches those tools and uses what it finds to keep your documentation up to date.
Where can my team use Slite?
Wherever they already work. In Slack, ask the Slite bot to create a document or update one, and the change goes to review in Slite. In Claude, ChatGPT or Cursor, your team can look up, write and edit documentation through MCP. In the browser, the Chrome extension answers questions without opening Slite. And the web, desktop and mobile apps cover the rest.
How does pricing compare?
Slite's prices are public: Basic is $10 and Pro is $20 per user a month, billed yearly. Book a free demo to see it on your own use cases, and enterprise teams can start with a pilot. Guru doesn't publish prices and asks for a $50K minimum just to get a demo.
Guru vs Slite, feature by feature
Both cover verification, search and MCP. The difference is what happens after a document goes out of date.
