Question 1

What is the difference between Canviq and Canny?

Accepted Answer

Canny is a standalone public feedback board that lets users submit ideas and vote on them. It does not measure product-market fit, deploy surveys, or analyze sentiment. Canviq includes a public feedback board with the same voting functionality, but adds PMF surveys, a 40% benchmark tracker, AI sentiment analysis, HXC profiler, and GitHub issue auto-creation on top of it.

Question 2

Does Canny measure product-market fit?

Accepted Answer

No. Canny is a feature request and feedback aggregation tool. It collects what users say they want but does not measure whether users would be disappointed if the product disappeared — the PMF signal. Canny vote counts are popularity signals, not PMF signals. A feature can have many votes from users who are only "somewhat disappointed" — which is still below the PMF threshold.

Question 3

Can I use Canviq as a Canny replacement?

Accepted Answer

Yes. Canviq's public feedback board provides the same core functionality as Canny — users can submit ideas, vote on submissions, add comments, and track status updates. Canviq adds PMF surveys, AI analysis, and GitHub integration on top. If you are currently using Canny and want to start measuring PMF, Canviq replaces Canny without requiring a separate survey tool.

Question 4

How does Canviq pricing compare to Canny?

Accepted Answer

Canny charges for both the number of tracked users and advanced features like integrations and private boards. For early-stage B2B SaaS products with growing user bases, Canny costs can scale significantly. Canviq is priced for pre-seed to Series A founders, with a free trial and plans starting at a lower price point that includes PMF surveys, AI analysis, and GitHub integration.
