Helpjuice
Hosted knowledge base with flat monthly plans from $249, a review process, SAML sign-in and a full write API.
In short
- The Knowledge Base plan costs $249 a month and includes 30 users; the page shows no yearly price1.
- Plans rise to $449 for 100 users and $799 for unlimited users1.
- There is no free plan, only a 14-day free trial with no credit card1.
- Articles need approval from assigned reviewers before publishing, unless an admin lets some roles bypass it8.
- The v3 API creates articles with POST and updates them with PUT5.
Helpjuice suits teams that want review and approval, SAML sign-in, an article API and a help centre on their own subdomain, and can afford a flat monthly fee1,4,5,6,8. The catch is price: the cheapest plan is $249 a month, with no free plan and no certification named on the pages we read1,2.
Best for: Companies that want an editorial review step and an API and can pay a flat fee.
