Roadmap overview

Kanban board layout

Your roadmap is organized in a visual Kanban board with three main columns:

  • In Review: Features being evaluated and prioritized
  • In Progress: Features currently being developed
  • Completed: Features that have been delivered

Feature cards

Each roadmap item shows:

  • Title: Feature name and description
  • Status: Current development status
  • Upvotes: Number of user votes
  • Tags: Categories and labels
  • Time: When the feature was added
  • User: Who submitted the feedback

Creating roadmap items

From feedback

Roadmap items are automatically created from feedback marked as "Feature Request":

  1. Go to your Feedback dashboard
  2. Find feedback that represents a feature request
  3. Update the status to "In Review"
  4. The item automatically appears in your roadmap

Manual creation

Currently, roadmap items are created from user feedback. To add a feature to your roadmap:

  1. Submit feedback through your widget
  2. Tag it as "Feature Request"
  3. Update the status to "In Review"
  4. It will appear in your roadmap
