Your all-in-one sovereign workspace
A Notion and Miro combined powered by AFFiNE, installed and maintained by DINAO. Your documents, whiteboards, and databases stay on our servers in France — never in the US cloud.
What is AFFiNE?
AFFiNE presents itself as the open-source alternative to Notion and Miro, bringing together documents, whiteboards, databases, and AI in a single workspace. Its "local-first" philosophy prioritizes data privacy and ownership: your content lives first on your instance, not in a third-party cloud.
The tool combines a rich document editor, a visual whiteboard canvas for planning and organizing ideas, and database views. A library of templates (planners, storyboards, checklists) speeds up setup. The "AFFiNE AI" partner assists with writing, drawing, and planning directly within the editor.
Self-hostable on DINAO's infrastructure, AFFiNE is designed for individuals and teams who want to unify note-taking, project management, and visual creation without multiplying tools, while retaining full control over their data.

This application uses AI
The container hosts the application, not the AI engine (which requires dedicated GPUs) : inference is handled externally, with your own provider key. Prioritize a sovereign engine — Mistral AI, NumSpot, Scaleway, or OVHcloud AI Endpoints (France, GDPR) ; an international provider (OpenAI, Anthropic…) only if a specific capability requires it. Inference subscriptions are not included in hosting.
Technical details
You might be wondering…
How does AFFiNE replace Notion and Miro?
AFFiNE combines document editing (Notion-style) and infinite whiteboards (Miro-style), plus databases, into a single tool. You switch from text to visuals without changing applications, and your data stays in France.
Is real-time collaboration possible?
Yes. Multiple members can edit documents and whiteboards simultaneously, with shared spaces per team or project, all hosted on your instance.
Where is the data hosted?
On DINAO's infrastructure in France, in one of the available data centers. Your documents and ideas never leave the country.
Do technical skills are required?
No for usage: the interface is modern and intuitive. DINAO handles installation, security, and updates. A technical team can still configure SSO and sharing.
Can I change plans or export my data?
Yes. You can upgrade or downgrade at any time, and your documents remain exportable — no proprietary lock-in.
