Why this matters

Built for founders who want signal, not noise

Every B2B SaaS team eventually faces the same problem: users send feature requests via email, Intercom, Slack, and support tickets. Those signals scatter across tools, get duplicated, and lose their vote weight. Product managers spend hours consolidating them into a spreadsheet that is already stale by the time it is shared.

A public feedback board solves this by giving users a single canonical place to submit ideas and vote. Instead of seven separate email threads about dark mode, you see one submission with 142 votes. The signal is aggregated, ranked, and visible to everyone on the team in real time.

Canviq goes further than a simple voting board. When your team ships something, users who voted get notified automatically. When your PMF survey surfaces a recurring theme, that theme can appear as a votable submission on the board. The result is a continuous feedback loop between survey data and your public roadmap, with no manual work required to keep them in sync.

How it works

How the Canviq feedback board works

The board is live the moment you activate your Canviq account. There is no setup required. Users access it at your custom board URL and can submit and vote without creating an account. Here is how the full lifecycle works:

  1. 1

    Users submit ideas and problems

    Anyone with a link can submit a feature request or report a problem. Canviq runs full-text duplicate detection before submission, suggesting existing items that match. This keeps the board clean and prevents vote fragmentation across similar requests.

  2. 2

    Votes aggregate and rank automatically

    Each user gets one vote per submission. Votes are counted in real time using database triggers, with no polling or refresh required. The board sorts items by vote count by default, giving your team a ranked backlog that reflects actual user demand.

  3. 3

    Your team moves items through a 7-status workflow

    Admins update submission status from the moderation dashboard: Open, Under Review, Planned, In Progress, Shipped, Declined, or Merged. Each status change is logged to an audit trail. Team members can post official responses distinguished by a badge, so users know when feedback has been acknowledged by the product team.

  4. 4

    Followers get notified when things ship

    Users who vote automatically follow that item. When status changes to Shipped or any other update occurs, Canviq sends email notifications to all followers. This closes the loop and builds trust with users who took the time to submit feedback.

Capabilities

Voting, moderation, search, multilingual support, and real-time status updates, all built in.

User voting

Users vote on ideas and problems. High-vote items rise to the top automatically. Product teams get a ranked priority list without running another survey.

Roadmap status workflow

Seven statuses: Open, Under Review, Planned, In Progress, Shipped, Declined, Merged. Users follow items and get notified when status changes.

Official team responses

Product team members can post official responses on any submission. A badge distinguishes team responses from user comments, with no impersonation risk.

Full-text search

PostgreSQL tsvector search across all submissions. Find duplicates before they pile up. Merge related submissions to keep your board clean.

8-language support

Boards are available in English, Spanish, French, German, Russian, Portuguese (BR), Japanese, and Italian. Locale routing via URL prefix.

Follow and notify

Users auto-follow items they vote on. They get email updates when status changes, new official comments are posted, or a related item ships.

Frequently asked questions

What is a public feedback board?

A page where your users submit ideas and problems, vote on what matters most, and watch status update as your team works through the list. Canviq's board is public by default. Anyone can see and vote without logging in. Submissions can come from users directly or from PMF survey open-text responses that Canviq surfaces automatically.

Do users need an account to submit feedback?

No. Submitting and voting do not require an account. If a user wants notifications when their submission ships, they provide an email. That is optional. The lower the friction to submit, the more signal you get.

How does voting work?

One upvote per person, tracked by session and email to prevent duplicates. Admins can see vote counts and the voter list. Vote counts are visible on the board. If you have connected GitHub, high-vote submissions can automatically open a GitHub issue via the rules engine.

How does the board connect to PMF survey results?

When a PMF survey response scores low or contains useful open-text feedback, Canviq can surface it as a votable board submission. Your board shows not just what users are asking for, but also which requests overlap with users who are closest to churning.

How does the status workflow work?

Items move through six states: Open, Under Review, Planned, In Progress, Shipped, Declined. When status changes, users who submitted or voted get notified. If a linked GitHub issue is closed, the board item moves to Shipped automatically via webhook.

Can I host the board on my own domain?

Yes, on Growth and Scale plans. Point a CNAME from feedback.yourdomain.com to Canviq, and the board serves from your domain. Branding and color scheme come from your Canviq design settings.
