24 alternatives to We built a permissions layer for Notion
My agency was bleeding $1,800/year on contractor Notion seats. The problem: I needed to give contractors access to specific data (CRM, project tracker) but couldn't let them see pricing, margins, or other clients' information. Notion's native solution doesn't work: Row-level filtering exists but it's view-only (contractors can't edit) Column hiding doesn't exist Guest sharing is read-only So you either pay $15/mo per seat or duplicate databases (maintenance nightmare) I built a permissions layer using Notion's OAuth API. It lets contractors see only specific rows and columns, edit…
A permissions layer that connects to Notion via OAuth to grant contractors selective access to specific rows and columns without requiring paid Notion seats. Users define roles that control what data each person sees… Below are 24 products that do a similar job, ranked by how close each is in meaning and then by launch-day votes.

Hey HN, Nir, Gal and Tomer here. Last week, we open-sourced Enrolla (https://github.com/enrolla/enrolla) - feature management for SaaS companies. It makes it easy for developers to control how their product behaves for customers in different pricing tiers. So things like which features are enabled for whom, rate limits and seat limits, but also your customer secrets (with end-to-end encryption), and other configurations. After 15 years of working together at various companies, where we rebuilt the same SaaS foundation layer again and again - we wanted to create something…
