Roadmapr

Roadmapr is a web app for publishing product roadmaps, gathering feature votes and sharing release updates. It suits SaaS teams that want a public feedback loop, particularly founders in emerging markets. Its strongest case is a focused roadmap and feedback workflow with embeddable views; its clearest trade-off is that API access sits on the top plan.

Overview

Teams can publish a roadmap, collect suggestions through a feedback portal and track work as Planned, In Progress or Shipped. New ideas enter a moderation queue before becoming open to votes. That approval step helps teams curate the public board, though it also means someone must review submissions before customers can support them.

The kanban view and basic prioritization tools are suited to teams that need a visible status board and a simple signal of customer demand, not a deeper prioritization system. Roadmapr also combines roadmaps, feature voting and changelogs, giving teams one place to present plans and communicate shipped work.

Key features

The website widget can appear inline, as a floating button or in a modal, and can be added through a script tag or a React component. That gives teams several ways to put their roadmap in front of site visitors without directing them to a separate destination.

When a feature ships, voters can receive email updates; WhatsApp notifications are available on Pro and Business. The higher-tier restriction matters if WhatsApp is a key customer channel: Free and Starter users must rely on email.

Slack and Discord are available integrations. Microsoft Teams, Linear and GitHub are marked as coming soon, while Jira, Notion, Trello, GitLab, Intercom, Zendesk and Mixpanel are planned. Teams whose workflow depends on those planned connections should not choose Roadmapr expecting them to be ready.

REST API access is limited to Business. Its webhooks cover feature status changes, new submissions, vote milestones and user engagement, making that plan the fit for teams that need to connect roadmap activity to other systems. Security measures include TLS/HTTPS in transit, AES-256 encryption for sensitive data at rest, bcrypt password hashing, regular audits and automatic backups. Data is primarily stored in Frankfurt, with enterprise data-residency agreements available on request. The company says it aims to comply with GDPR, UK GDPR, CCPA/CPRA and India's Digital Personal Data Protection Act 2023.

Pricing

Roadmapr has a free plan, paid plans from $19/mo, and a 14-day trial. The listed plan prices are in INR; confirm the applicable billing terms before choosing, as the published plan details give monthly rates but no separate renewal terms.

Free keeps the cost at zero but caps usage at one project and 50 features, with community support and no uptime guarantee. Starter raises those caps but still limits feedback to 500 features and omits WhatsApp and API access. Pro removes the feature cap and adds a custom domain, but stops at 10 projects and does not include API access. Business removes the project cap and adds API access, but lists five team seats. Paid plans target 99.9% monthly uptime.

Support steps up with price: community on Free, email on Starter, priority on Pro and dedicated support on Business. That makes the cheaper plans less suitable for teams that need a stronger support commitment.

Platforms

Roadmapr is available on the web. Its widget can be embedded in websites through a script tag or React component.

Who it's for

Roadmapr is a sensible choice for a small or growing SaaS team that wants to publish a roadmap, screen incoming ideas and close the loop with voters. The free tier works for a single project with modest volume; Starter adds branding, changelog and embedding, while Pro suits teams that need more capacity or WhatsApp notices. Business is the necessary tier for API access and has a defined five-seat allocation, so teams needing more seats should verify fit before committing.

It is less compelling for teams that need sophisticated prioritization, integrations beyond Slack and Discord today, or API access below Business. Its maker positions it for Indian SaaS teams and founders in emerging markets, but the web platform and published capabilities are relevant to any team whose needs match those limits.

Pros and cons

• Pros: A moderated submission queue lets teams vet ideas before they become voteable, keeping the public feedback board curated.
• Pros: Inline, floating-button and modal widget options, with script and React installation routes, make the roadmap adaptable to an existing site.
• Pros: The Free plan includes a public roadmap and basic analytics, giving a one-project team a useful starting point without a subscription.
• Cons: Free is capped at one project and 50 features, and has no uptime guarantee, so it is a constrained option for production use at scale.
• Cons: API access requires Business, while WhatsApp starts at Pro; teams needing either capability must move beyond the lower-cost plans.
• Cons: Only Slack and Discord are currently available from the named integrations; several prominent workflow connections remain future plans.
• Cons: Prioritization is basic, which limits its appeal to teams seeking a more developed way to rank product work.

Alternatives

Product Roadmap Software is the broader category guide for comparing roadmap tools.

Choose Featurebase if device coverage matters: it spans Android, iOS, web and API, and its free plan includes unlimited conversations with feedback, though it has one seat and no AI support. Tempo Portfolio Manager is worth considering for project and task limits: its free plan allows 10 members, three projects and 300 tasks, while Essentials is $15 a month for one user. Sleekplan may suit teams prioritizing feedback and changelog capacity on a free tier, which includes unlimited feedback and subscribers but no team seats.

Canny is an alternative for teams wanting unlimited feedback on its free plan, capped at 25 tracked users, or a Pro option with 100+ tracked users and PM integrations. Product Roadmap offers a free plan with unlimited posts and users, three admin roles, two feedback boards, a roadmap and changelog. For product teams wanting a broader product-management tool, Productboard has a free plan with 50 AI credits a month, 500 feedback notes, 25 contributors, one teamspace and one product portal. Productfolio has a free Starter tier with one workspace, one editor, 10 read-only portal guests and 200 features. UserJot is another free option, with unlimited posts and users, three admin roles, two feedback boards, a public roadmap and public changelog.

Verdict

Choose Roadmapr if your team wants a straightforward public roadmap and moderated voting loop, with flexible website embedding and a free entry point. Its main reason to look elsewhere is the combination of basic prioritization, a short list of live integrations and Business-only API access; teams that need richer prioritization or automation on a lower plan will be better served by another tool.
