"Sufficient" is a good replacement for academic writing.

I used okay once in a high school essay that I wrote at the last minute... my teacher underlined it and wrote "seriously?" 😒

Doesn't it all depend on context? I mean, it would be okay to say okay if the official document had an interview or a question and answer part, right? But I agree on that fact that you shouldn't use it to transition, so don't say, "okay, for the next topic..." That wording should never be used in a formal paper.
