On my gravel bike a frame bag or handlebar bag is the way to go and there are lots of small handlebar bags out on the market now.

Saddle bags are not for on the bike use. They carry tools if you have a flat or other mechanical. They make sense if you dont want to carry a lot of stuff and stays out of the way unlike a handlebar bag. Dont get me wrong I carry a handlebar bag sometimes but on a road ride I just carry a small saddle bag, beats carrying a tube/tire lever/patches/mini tool in a jersey pocket.
