Nuclino

Bit.ai

Document editor with widgets

Typing a slash opens a menu for inserting code blocks, tables, math equations, signatures, file previews and visual link previews into a document.

Wikis from documents

Any document becomes a wiki when subpages are added, which builds a content tree for navigation. Workspaces, folders and subfolders are unlimited.

Real-time collaboration

Team members, clients and guests can be invited to edit and comment on the same document at once. Free guest access is part of the Business plan.

Sharing and tracking

Documents are shared by live link or embedded on a website, with password protection and link expiry. Trackable documents with engagement analytics are on Business.

AI Genius writing assistant

AI Genius drafts, summarizes, translates and revises text. Paid plans include 20K words a month, with more sold at $10 per 100K words; it is not on the free plan.

Embeds from other apps

Content from more than 100 apps, including Figma, Google Sheets, Typeform and Airtable, sits live inside a document, and cloud files are inserted from Google Drive, OneDrive, Box or Dropbox.

Nuclino

Collaborative items

Each item is a document that the team edits in real time, with room for notes, assigned tasks, flowcharts and embedded files. Hotkeys, slash commands and Markdown are supported.

List, board, table and graph views

The same workspace can be shown as a list for docs, a board for projects and tasks, a table that sorts and filters, or a graph for exploring how knowledge connects.

Canvas

An infinite canvas for whiteboards and diagrams can be added anywhere in a workspace. The Free plan allows up to 3 canvases; paid plans have no limit.

Sidekick AI

Answers questions from the team's own content, drafts and summarizes text, extracts action items and generates images. Sidekick is part of the Business plan.

Publishing

A workspace can be published as a website that search engines can find. Publishing starts on Starter, and a custom domain needs Business.

API and MCP server

An API is included on every plan, and an MCP server connects assistants such as Claude, ChatGPT and Cursor to the team's content.
