Our take
Pick GitBook if you're solo writers who will stay on Free $0, then buy Essential at $65/site/month billed annually plus $12/user when they need a custom domain, analytics, and AI Ask. Pick Helpjuice if you're on a support team who will pay $249+ for a branded public KB. Skip Helpjuice if you're on a team that need a $0 internal wiki (Slab, Nuclino) or developer docs (Archbee).
