What is Feedvote
What Feedvote is, who it is for, and the main parts of the product.
Feedvote gives teams that run their work in Linear a public board for their customers. On the board, customers share feedback, vote, comment, follow your roadmap and read your changelog. Feedvote connects to Linear, so the board stays up to date with the work your team does there.
Who Feedvote is for
Feedvote is for teams that plan and track their work in Linear, such as SaaS teams and agencies. It suits teams that want to show customers what is planned and shipped, and collect their feedback in one place, without copying work by hand between tools.
The problem Feedvote solves
Your team works in Linear, but your customers cannot see Linear. Feedvote gives customers a board they can open, and keeps that board in step with Linear. You also decide who sees what: the whole board can be public or private, and each item can be shown to everyone, to only your team, or to specific customers.
The main parts
Feedback board
Your public board is the page your customers open. It has three tabs: All updates, Roadmap and Changelog. Visitors can post feedback there, based on your settings. Your team manages all feedback on the Feedback page of the dashboard. See Feedback.
Voting
Visitors vote on the feedback items they care about, so you can see which requests matter most. See Voting.
Comments
Visitors and your team can comment on feedback items. See Comments.
Roadmap
The roadmap shows your items in columns by status. A new board without Linear starts with four columns: Backlog, To Do, In Progress and Shipped. Your team works on it on the Roadmap page of the dashboard, and visitors see it in the Roadmap tab of the board. See Roadmap.
Changelog
The changelog tells customers what you shipped. Your team writes posts on the Changelog page of the dashboard, and visitors read them in the Changelog tab of the board. See Changelog.
Analytics
The Analytics page of the dashboard shows activity on your board over a date range you choose. See Analytics.
Linear sync
Feedvote connects to Linear in two ways:
| Sync direction | What it does |
|---|---|
| Two-way sync | Imports Linear issues into Feedvote, and keeps both tools updated when either side changes. |
| Send to Linear only | Sends feedback created in Feedvote to Linear. Nothing is ever imported from Linear into Feedvote. |
With two-way sync, you can import Linear projects as roadmap items, or import projects and the issues inside them. Filters let you choose which Linear work appears on the board. See Connect Linear and Two-way sync.
Visibility and customers
Two settings in Settings > Visibility control what people see:
- Who can open the board: Everyone (anyone with the link), Signed-in people (any account, after sign-in) or Invited only (only your team and your customers' people).
- Who sees each item: the default audience for items. An item can be shown to Everyone, to Only my team, or to Specific customers. Label rules can set the audience for many items at once.
In the same tab, Require account login makes visitors sign in before they can post, vote or comment.
A customer is a group of people, such as one company. You create customers and add their contacts by email. See Visibility overview and Customers.
Integrations
You can connect Linear, Slack, Discord and Webhook in Settings > Integrations. For example, Slack can post new feedback, status changes and comments to a channel. Jira, GitHub, Notion and Email Digest are marked Coming Soon and cannot be connected yet. See Integrations overview.
How it works
- You sign up and create your public roadmap. Feedvote gives it a board URL such as
your-name.feedvote.app. - You connect Linear and choose what to import, or you add items yourself.
- You choose who can open the board and who sees each item.
- You share the board link with your customers.
- Customers post feedback, vote and comment.
- Your team plans the work in Linear. With two-way sync, changes in Linear show on the board, and changes in Feedvote go back to Linear.
- You publish changelog posts when you ship.

Common questions
Do I need Linear to use Feedvote?
No. During setup you can click Continue without Linear and add items yourself. Feedvote is built for teams that work in Linear, so the Linear sync is the main way to keep the board up to date.
Can I keep some items private?
Yes. Each item has an audience: Everyone, Only my team or Specific customers. You can also make the whole board private with Who can open the board in Settings > Visibility.
Can I show different items to different customers?
Yes. Create a customer for each company, add its contacts, and set items to Specific customers. Those items are shown only to the customers you pick, plus your team.
Can I connect Jira, GitHub or Notion?
Not yet. Jira, GitHub, Notion and Email Digest are marked Coming Soon. Today you can connect Linear, Slack, Discord and Webhook.
