How We Handle Your Product Ideas
Your ideas help us build better products. The Product Ideas category is the best place to share feature requests, discuss them with the community, and work directly with our product team. We review every idea and will engage with you to understand your needs.
How to Submit Your Idea
-
Search First: Check if someone has already submitted your idea. If they have, please upvote the existing post and add your comments to that thread.
-
Be Detailed: Explain your idea clearly. The user story format is perfect: As a ˂role˃, I want to ˂function˃, so that ˂benefit˃. The more detail you provide, the better we can understand your request.
-
One Idea at a Time: Please submit each idea as a separate post. This keeps voting and tracking clear for everyone.
Our Process and What Each Status Means
When you submit an idea, our product team will review it and assign a status. Here's what they mean:
-
NEW: The idea has just been submitted.
-
GATHERING INTEREST: We've reviewed the idea, and it's now open for community votes and discussion. We think it's interesting but aren't ready to commit yet, often because we need more feedback or it doesn't fit our immediate strategy.
-
PLANNED FOR DEVELOPMENT: Great idea! It provides clear value and has been added to our product roadmap.
-
PARKED: The idea is on hold. This could be due to our current roadmap, technical dependencies, or team capacity. We may revisit it later.
-
CLOSED: We will not be moving forward with this idea. This is usually because it's a duplicate (which we will merge) or does not align with our core product vision.
-
IMPLEMENTED: Your idea has been built and is now available in the product.
What to Expect
We are committed to working on your feedback, but posting an idea does not guarantee it will be built. This ideation board is our main tool for understanding your challenges and managing feedback.
We formally review all ideas with the "Gathering Interest" and "Parked" statuses twice a year and will communicate our plans. We try our best to balance your requests with our long-term product vision.
We Welcome Your Feedback
