Own your team's intelligence with a self hosted knowledge base
Run Docmost on your own server for a private self hosted knowledge base with flat-rate pricing. Stop paying a monthly tax for every new hire and reclaim your data sovereignty.
Why choose Opsily for your self hosted knowledge base?
We take the complexity out of self-hosting so you can focus on building your company's brain.
Zero per-seat pricing
Most SaaS documentation tools charge you for every person who reads a page. We think that is wrong. With Opsily, you pay for the server, not the people. Invite 10 or 100 users for the same flat monthly rate. Your costs stay predictable even as your team grows 10x.
German data sovereignty
Your documentation contains your company's deepest secrets and processes. Do not leave them on a multi-tenant US cloud server. We host your Docmost instance on dedicated infrastructure in Germany. This ensures full GDPR compliance and keeps your intellectual property under your control, not a vendor's.
Fully managed updates
Self-hosting does not have to mean self-maintenance. We handle the Docker configuration, security patches, and application updates for you. When a new version of Docmost drops, we make sure your data is backed up and the transition is smooth. You get the power of open-source without the DevOps headache.
Built for teams who need reliability
The Problem with SaaS Documentation
Marcus, you have 12 tabs open. One of them is likely a SaaS wiki where you pay $15 per month for every employee. When you hire a new intern, your bill goes up. When you bring on a contractor for a week, your bill goes up. This is a tax on growth.
Beyond the cost, there is the privacy risk. Your standard operating procedures, your product roadmap, and your internal post-mortems live on a platform you do not own. If they change their terms or raise their prices, you are stuck because your data is locked in their proprietary format.
Enter the Self Hosted Knowledge Base
Docmost is the open-source answer to Notion and Confluence. It offers the same real-time collaboration and clean interface your team expects, but it runs on your terms. By choosing a self hosted knowledge base, you remove the middleman.
On Opsily, this transition is effortless. You get a dedicated instance that belongs to you. You can export your data whenever you want. You are no longer a tenant in someone else's digital building: you are the owner. This is how smart companies manage their internal intelligence in 2026.

Features Built for Modern Teams
Docmost is not just a basic wiki. It is a powerful collaboration tool designed to match the productivity of modern SaaS platforms without the overhead.
Real-time Collaborative Editing
Work with your team on the same page simultaneously. See cursors move in real-time. No more 'document locked by another user' errors. It is as fast as Google Docs but entirely private.
Native Excalidraw Integration
Visualizing ideas is better than writing them. Docmost includes Excalidraw natively. You can sketch diagrams, wireframes, and flowcharts directly inside your documentation. These are stored as editable assets, not static images.
Markdown and Media
Write in clean Markdown or use the intuitive block editor. Drag and drop images, videos, and files. Docmost handles file management efficiently, ensuring your knowledge base is a rich repository of all company assets.
Hierarchical Organization
Keep your documentation tidy with nested spaces and pages. Whether you are organizing by department, project, or client, the sidebar keeps everything accessible and clear.
Everything included in every plan
We do not gatekeep security or performance features behind higher tiers. You get the full experience on any server.
Predictable pricing for your brain
No surprises. No user limits. Just reliable hosting in Germany.

Questions about self hosting your knowledge base
A self hosted knowledge base is a documentation platform that you run on your own private server instead of a shared SaaS cloud. Tools like Docmost allow you to store and organize company information using an interface similar to Notion or Confluence. By hosting it yourself on Opsily, you keep full control over your data residency and privacy. This eliminates the risk of vendor lock-in and allows for flat-rate pricing regardless of your team size. It is the preferred choice for companies with strict security or compliance requirements.
