Unleash
Oslo, Norway
What it is
Unleash is a feature management platform for controlling software behavior and releases in production without redeploying code. Teams can use progressive rollouts, instant rollbacks, release templates, and kill switches to manage changes. Its experimentation tools include A/B/n testing with flag variants, experiments, user segmentation, and stickiness. Feature flags are evaluated in SDKs or at the edge. Unleash lists more than 25 SDKs for languages and frameworks such as Node.js, Java, Go, Python, .NET, React, Android, and iOS. Listed integrations include Slack, Teams, Datadog, Jira, generic webhooks, and Admin, Frontend, and Client APIs. Security features include SOC 2 Type II and GDPR compliance, SSO, role-based access control, and audit log retention of up to two years. Enterprise deployments can be hosted, self-hosted, or hybrid, with US or EU data residency available on Enterprise plans. The Open Source instance is free, with one project, two environments, and 5,000 feature flags. Pay-As-You-Go costs $75 a month and includes a 14-day trial without a credit card.
