Frequently Asked Questions

What is AFFiNE?

AFFiNE is the open-source, local-first knowledge workspace that combines documents, whiteboards, and AI in one canvas. AFFiNE Cloud is hosted by our team; the editor and most of the codebase are MIT-licensed.

Is AFFiNE free?

Yes. AFFiNE Cloud Free includes unlimited local workspaces, 10 GB of Cloud Storage, real-time collaboration with up to 3 members per workspace, and 7 days of version history.

What is the difference between AFFiNE Cloud and Self-Hosted?

AFFiNE Cloud runs on our infrastructure with no setup. Self-Hosted runs the full stack on your own servers; you control all data, and limits are bound by your own infrastructure.

Can I use AFFiNE as a free Notion alternative?

Yes. AFFiNE's editor and most of the codebase are open-source under MIT, local-first by design, and free forever for personal use.

What license is AFFiNE on GitHub?

AFFiNE uses a dual-license model. The editor and most of the codebase are MIT-licensed. The backend server uses the AFFiNE Enterprise Edition (EE) license.

Can AFFiNE replace Confluence for self-hosted team knowledge bases?

Yes. AFFiNE's Self-Hosted Team tier is built as a team knowledge base that runs the full stack on your own infrastructure.
