Who should choose Vivio?

Families and couples
You want to share a meal plan, a shopping list and a calendar with your partner or family, without multiple subscriptions.
Privacy-conscious users
Your data is hosted in Europe, GDPR-compliant, and never sold on. The free plan shows ads; they go away as soon as you move to any paid plan.
Frequently asked questions
Do I need to configure Vivio like Notion?
No, that is the fundamental difference. Vivio is ready to use from sign-up: your 9 modules are pre-configured and interconnected. No databases to create, no templates to search for, no formulas to learn.
Can Vivio replace Notion at work?
Vivio is designed for personal and family life, not for team project management. If you mainly use Notion to organise your personal life, Vivio will offer you a much smoother and more specialised experience.
Is Vivio data stored in Europe?
Yes, Vivio is hosted in Europe on GDPR-compliant servers. Unlike Notion whose servers are in the United States, your Vivio data never leaves European territory.
Can Vivio be customised?
Vivio offers customisation in every module, budget categories, nutritional goals, task labels, contact groups, without requiring any technical configuration. Everything is set up in a few clicks.
Ready to switch from Notion to Vivio?
All 9 modules, free forever. And 150 Vivio AI credits a month instead of 20 for your first 15 days.
