Almanac is a team wiki and workflow platform built to replace fragmented tools like Confluence, Notion, and Asana. It provides a single source of truth where distributed teams can consolidate all their documents, align on priorities, and move faster with less overhead. The platform claims to save distributed teams more than one million hours of wasted work each year.
The tool centers on eliminating information anxiety through powerful document management capabilities. Teams can use Body Search to find content within any document in seconds, Version Control Mode to lock down handbooks and require approved changes through Layers, and Deprecation workflows that schedule recurring document reviews so knowledge stays current.
Almanac introduces Layers, a collaboration model that allows drafting privately and inviting contributors on the author's terms, removing comment and suggestion chaos. Approvals give decision-makers veto power over documents, while Read Receipts confirm that teammates have actually read important policies and announcements. An Activity Feed surfaces everything pending review in one place so nothing falls through the cracks.
The platform supports lightweight project management by transforming documents into tasks, eliminating the need for additional task tools. Linked Versions and Doc History let teams compare any two points in time, see who made changes, and revert instantly. Almanac integrates with Jira, GitHub, Linear, Loom, Figma, Google Workspace, Canva, ClickUp, Airtable, Slack, Dropbox, and Miro, and supports SSO/SAML provisioning. The platform is SOC2 and HIPAA compliant.
