Public roadmap software
Public roadmap software shows customers what you are planning, building and shipping, without exposing the plans you are not ready to share. Look for public and private roadmaps side by side, cards linked to the feedback behind them, and an embed for your site. FeatureOS covers all three, from $60/mo for 5 seats.

FeatureOS
How FeatureOS does it
- Roadmap cards come from feedback board posts, so every item shows the votes behind it.
- Keep one roadmap public on your portal and another private for the org; hide boards, created dates or ETC you are not ready to show.
- Switch between Timeline, Kanban and List views, and score with R.I.C.E. or Value vs Effort.
- Run several roadmaps (by product, quarter or team) and live-sync a saved filter onto each.
- Embed the whole roadmap, one board, an SSO version or a headerless snippet on trusted domains.
- When a card ships, tag it on a changelog entry so voters hear about it.

- Large product org that wants strategy tooling and a sales-led contract? Productboard.
- Already using Canny for feedback? Its roadmap is the shortest path.
- Want a public roadmap fed by votes, a private one beside it, and the changelog in the same tool? FeatureOS.

Questions
Have more questions?
A public roadmap is a page customers can see that lists what a product team is planning, working on and has shipped. It cuts repeat "is this coming?" questions and shows users their feedback is being used.
Share what you are confident about and keep the rest private. With FeatureOS you can run a public and a private roadmap side by side and hide boards, created dates or ETC from the public view.
Yes. FeatureOS offers a full embed, a board-specific embed, an SSO embed and a headerless snippet, restricted to trusted domains.
No. Many teams use status columns instead of dates. FeatureOS lets you hide created dates and ETC on cards and name columns however you plan, including Now, Next and Later.
