The Verdict
Guru is built for support teams and sales teams, with a focus on knowledge-cards and verification. Notion AI targets notion users and teams and leads with ai-drafting and summarization.
Both tools come in at similar price points ($10/mo for Guru, $10/mo for Notion AI), so pricing won't make the decision for you.
Guru has a free plan, which gives it a meaningful edge for individuals and small teams exploring their options. Notion AI requires a paid subscription from day one.
This is a genuinely close comparison. If you can, sign up for both free trials (where available) and run a one-week test with your actual team tasks before deciding.
