Dokyo is a European-hosted workspace for documents, notes, and real-time collaboration, positioned for privacy-conscious buyers as a Notion alternative.
Dokyo serves individuals and teams that need a shared workspace for documents, notes, and structured data but want their content kept inside the European Union. Its approach pairs a block-based editor with databases and multiple views, then adds real-time collaboration built on a CRDT engine so several people can edit one page at once without conflicts. The service runs in the browser with an optional desktop client for offline editing, and it includes a consent-gated AI assistant.
Against Notion, Dokyo competes mainly on data residency and weight: its infrastructure sits in the European Union with no third-party tracking, and the product is built to stay lightweight and fast. That combination suits privacy-conscious European organizations and smaller teams that want core writing, database, and collaboration features without a heavier tool. Dokyo occupies the privacy-first, lightweight end of the workspace category, with its AI assistant gated behind explicit consent and disabled in one click.
