Some good alternatives

- Quip (https://quip.com)

- Airtable (https://airtable.com)

- Taskade (https://taskade.com)





Those are different products.

Notion is primarily hierarchical note taker/wiki.

The closest product is Quip but Quip is like Google docs - each page is its own thing. It's not hierarchical.

Airtable is a database. Notion has similar functionality, but not as rich and their tables can be just part of the page, like a picture.

Taskade is a task tracker. I use Notion for a similar purpose but it's not the primary functionality of Notion.



Notion is now becoming a lot more like coda. I love how Coda exposes tabular data in a programmable way (but programmable as in easier than spreadsheets). It also even has API access: https://coda.io/developers/apis/v1beta1


Chrome-only.


Nuclino is also a very strong offering in this space.


Here is a deep comparison of Notion, Coda, Airtable and Zenkit

Airtable was really bad for me compared to Notion. The rich text support is the primary but not only problem. I can't speak to the others, but Airtable is a really bad alternative.
