Notion alternative for small teams
Notion is flexible and document-first, but teams that mainly need to plan and track work often want more structure. Planallo is planning-first with lightweight docs attached.
Built for small teams who want planning without enterprise clutter.
- Launch brief
- Pricing decisions
- Press talking points
- Onboarding script
- Retro notes
Goal: ship the Q3 release to existing customers and surface clearer value to small teams evaluating Planallo.
- • New pricing page with realistic demo screenshots
- • Three competitor comparison pages
- • In-product onboarding refresh
Example workspace shown with fictional demo data.
Why teams look for a Notion alternative
- Building task and project structure from scratch takes effort
- Databases require setup before they're useful
- Status and progress can get lost across pages
- Teams want planning to be the default, not configured in
How Planallo is different

Boards, lists, dashboards
The execution views small teams need every day.
Mobile-friendly
Update tasks and check progress from any device.
AI planning assistant
The AI planning assistant generates plans, breaks down tasks and drafts status updates from your data.

When to choose Planallo
- You want planning, tasks and dashboards out of the box
- You'd rather execute than design databases and templates
- You want docs that live next to your work
- Your team is small and wants a calmer execution tool
When Notion may still be better
- You're building a wiki or knowledge base as your primary use case
- You need highly flexible documentation and database structures
- Your team's workflow is mainly authoring rather than planning
