A Nuclino alternative without the 50-item wall
The lightweight end of the market: a fast, minimal collective brain with list, board, graph and canvas views and near-zero learning curve.
Nuclino's free plan stops at 50 items and reserves Sidekick AI for its Business tier. Flocci Library keeps the same fast, minimal feel — keyboard-first search, a clean editor — with no 50-item wall on free personal spaces, 16 block types including native charts, and AI drafting on every account.
Why teams leave Nuclino
- The free plan caps at 50 items, 3 canvases and 2 GB — a real knowledge base passes that in weeks.
- AI (Sidekick) is Business-tier only, invisible on Free and Starter.
- The deliberately minimal block set means no callouts, toggles, or charts when a page needs them.
Keep, gain, lose — plainly
| You keep | Speed, a near-zero learning curve, instant search and a clean, distraction-free editor. |
| You gain | No item cap on free personal spaces, callouts, toggles, tables and four native chart types, org roles and invites, trash with restore, AI on every account, and one login across the Flocci suite. |
| You lose | Nuclino's visual graph and board views over items — a genuine strength. Library shows the same relationships through a two-way Links panel rather than a canvas. |
How to migrate from Nuclino
- List the items you actually reference; a 50-item free workspace migrates in an afternoon.
- Create one space per cluster and rebuild the hierarchy properly — nesting is free here.
- Paste content in; use / to upgrade flat paragraphs into callouts, toggles and checklists as you go.
- Convert any item cross-links into @mention chips so backlinks reappear in the Links panel.
- Turn the pages people ask about most into charts or tables where a paragraph was hiding data.

Frequently asked questions
Why leave Nuclino?
The free plan caps at 50 items, 3 canvases and 2 GB — a real knowledge base passes that in weeks. AI (Sidekick) is Business-tier only, invisible on Free and Starter. The deliberately minimal block set means no callouts, toggles, or charts when a page needs them.
What do I keep after switching from Nuclino?
Speed, a near-zero learning curve, instant search and a clean, distraction-free editor.
What do I gain?
No item cap on free personal spaces, callouts, toggles, tables and four native chart types, org roles and invites, trash with restore, AI on every account, and one login across the Flocci suite.
What do I lose?
Nuclino's visual graph and board views over items — a genuine strength. Library shows the same relationships through a two-way Links panel rather than a canvas.
Is there a page limit on Flocci Library's free plan?
No. Personal spaces are free without an item cap of the 50-item kind Nuclino's free tier imposes. Fair-use applies at extreme scale, but an ordinary personal or small-team knowledge base will not hit a wall.
Does Flocci Library have a graph view like Nuclino?
Library models the graph through page references and a Links panel on every page showing both what this page links to and what links here. A visual graph canvas is not shipped — Nuclino's graph view is a genuine advantage today.
