Featurebase
Feedback boards, roadmap, changelog and help centre in one tool.
NOT REALLY
why this verdict
Keep paying — OpenAI has not replaced it
OpenAI's version overlaps, but does not finish the productivity job, so this one still earns its $49/mo.
- A named launch, not a vibe named, unlinked
- Summarising feedback became free; hosting the loop did not. OpenAI, April 1, 2025 — no announcement link recorded yet.
- How much of the job it covers not the job editorial call
- Parts of it. The job still needs the tool to get finished.
- Is there a free way to do it? paid only
- 3 replacements listed, all paid.
- What the call is worth $588/yr
- $49/mo at the entry paid tier — $588 a year per seat.

The backstory
Featurebase undercut Canny by bundling the surrounding pieces — help centre, surveys, changelog — into one cheaper suite, which is why it spread through indie SaaS on X. AI shows up as request clustering and duplicate detection, an assist rather than a threat, because the product is a place users go, not a document a model writes.
