Check https://www.simuldocs.com/ It's a version control SaaS for Word documents. They took a lot of inspiration from git

This is actually the best suggestion of the bunch, at the moment, at least for the most critical Word documents we have. It's cheap enough that I can try to sell it internally with minimal effort. It even has a readonly api that I could use to package the final versions of this or that. The only weakness for my usecase is the lack of support for Powerpoint, which hopefully will come at some point.
