| Pricing | Not published — Capterra lists 'Contact vendor' · free tier: Free trial listed by Capterra; a vendor blog post indicates a free 'Guru Starter' tier exists but its current limits are unverified | Standard $5.16 per user (G2 block labelled "Pricing provided by Confluence"; billing period and currency not verified) · free tier: Free plan available; G2's vendor-supplied block lists it at 10 users |
| Pricing model | Custom (scoped platform engagement; no published per-seat ladder) | Subscription (per-seat), with a free tier |
| Best for | A 200+ seat mid-market or enterprise organisation in a regulated or accuracy-critical sector that already runs Slack/Teams plus Salesforce, Zendesk or SharePoint, wants permission-aware AI answers with citations and audit lineage, and has budget for a scoped engagement including Guru's solution-engineering layer. | Organisations already running Jira that have a dedicated admin or documentation owner to enforce space naming, hierarchy and permission conventions, and that need governed, versioned, permissioned internal documentation — including regulated or large enterprises wanting self-hosted Data Center deployment. |
| Avoid if | You are a startup, solo operator or small team that needs a published price and card signup; you want rich authoring and document formatting; you need a public SEO-indexed help centre; or your procurement process requires a transparent self-serve price ladder for comparison. | You are a small team with no dedicated admin, your primary requirement is fast forgiving search across a large corpus, you are Microsoft-centric, you want a lightweight minimal writing surface, or you are budgeting on headline seat price without modelling marketplace app spend. |

A higher TOP SCORE means more of the evidence favours that platform on this methodology — it is not a recommendation, and it does not account for your specific requirements. Advertisers are never declared the winner of a comparison.
