The short answer
Featurebase bundles feedback with customer support: boards and a roadmap, a changelog and a help centre, and an omnichannel inbox with an AI agent that answers customers. Releaseo is release communication: a changelog, in-app launches, feature requests with voting, a roadmap and a help centre on one hosted public site, with live chat built in.
Choose Featurebase when support and feedback should live in one tool with an AI agent. Choose Releaseo when announcing what shipped, to the right customers, is the job, and the price should not grow seat by seat.
How you pay
| Releaseo | Featurebase | |
|---|---|---|
| Free plan | Yes | Yes, one seat |
| First paid plan | Starter, $19 a month for the workspace | Growth, from $29 per seat a month |
| What the bill follows | A flat monthly price per plan | Seats, plus $0.49 for each conversation its AI agent resolves |
| Removing the branding | Included from Pro | A $69 a month add-on, from Professional |
A team of five on Featurebase Growth pays 5 × $29, so $145 a month before any AI resolutions. Releaseo’s plans are priced per workspace: $19, $49 or $99 a month, with two months free on yearly billing.

Where Featurebase is the better choice
- Support and feedback should share one tool: an inbox across email, WhatsApp and Slack, with an AI agent that answers customers.
- Jira, Linear, Intercom or Zendesk have to be connected today.
- You run NPS or CSAT surveys.
- You need single sign-on or SCIM.
- Your support team answers from a phone app.
Where Releaseo is the better choice
- Your team is growing, and the bill should not grow seat by seat.
- You announce releases inside your product, with toasts, modals and banners shown only to the segments they are for.
- You want the changelog, roadmap, feature requests and help centre on one hosted site, on your own domain.
- Your customers’ data should stay in the EU by default.
Closing the loop
Both tools tell people when the thing they asked for ships. In Releaseo, a release tells the people who asked for it — the voters and followers already attached to that roadmap item.
