Best for turning Notion pages into a docs site
Notaku publishes Notion pages as a docs site or help center with search and a custom domain. But plans cap how many pages you can publish, from 20 to 2,000, and password protection, feedback and subdirectory hosting sit on higher plans.
Who Notaku is for
- Fits if your team already writes its docs in Notion and wants them on a public site
- Works for small help centers under 50 pages
Who Notaku is not for
- Tight if you stay free: 20 pages on a notaku.site address
- Pricey if you want password protection or user feedback, which start on Business at $37
- Skip it if you need hosting under a subdirectory like /docs, which is Business Plus at $97
- Watch out: there is no free trial of paid features, only a 30-day refund window per the FAQ
Why Notaku gets a 2.2
Five grades, each with its reason. The GPA is their average: an A is 4 points, an F is none.

- CFree plan and trialFree plan with 20 Notion pages on a notaku.site subdomain, a cap you will reach quickly. No free trial of the paid features.
- CFeaturesHosts Notion pages with search, versions and feedback. The listing shows gaps: page caps on every plan and custom domain only from Basic.
- CEase of useNo store rating on record. You build the content in Notion and then connect it, so there is setup.
- BPlatforms and integrationsWeb product that connects to Notion, with Cloudflare and Next.js named, and a public API. No desktop or phone app.

Keep Notaku, or make your own?
Keep it
To replace Notaku you would be making a search engine with an AI model behind it. That is not a weekend's work, with an AI app builder or without one.
That makes this kind of software worth paying for, not this one in particular: 53 of the 86 other docs and wiki tools grade higher. It costs $204 a year.
What you could make
- Documents and wiki: an app builder makes these well.
What you could not
- A search engine with an AI model behind it.
- It plugs into other products, Notion, Cloudflare and Next.js among them, and has an API.
What this rests on. Notaku’s listing: what it does, where it runs, what it plugs into and what it costs. It is a judgement about the kind of software this is. We have not built a replacement for it, and making your own means looking after it too. How we decide, and every tool’s verdict.
