Canny
What it is
Canny is an AI-powered customer feedback platform for product-led teams. It gathers feedback, helps teams assess and prioritize requests, and provides ways to share progress with customers. Its Autopilot feature uses AI to collect, remove duplicate items, and sort feedback from customer conversations and other sources. Through a customer-facing portal, customers can submit and vote on requests, check their status, and see what is planned. Teams can also publish public or private roadmaps, post status updates, and announce releases. Canny links feedback requests with customer accounts and revenue impact to help teams weigh opportunities. Listed integrations include Intercom, Zendesk, Slack, Salesforce, HubSpot, Jira, and Linear. A public API supports custom integrations, while a Chrome extension captures feedback across the web. Canny is available through the web, API, and extension. Its Free plan includes 25 tracked users and unlimited feedback; Pro is $79/mo billed yearly and starts at 100+ tracked users. A free trial lasts 14 days.
