Questions

Roadmap questions, answered.

Where does the roadmap live?

Inside your Yaplet chat widget, as its own tab, and on a public roadmap page at your Yaplet address. Customers don't sign up. They open the roadmap, browse and vote.

How do customers vote?

One click on the upvote arrow. The first time, they enter their email, so each person's vote counts once.

Can I change the columns?

Yes. You choose the column names, colors and order, and which columns customers see and which stay internal.

Can I see who asked for a feature?

Yes. A request sent from the widget is tied to the customer who sent it, and you can open their chats from the ticket for context.

Do voters hear when a feature ships?

They see it. Move a request to Shipped and everyone who opens your roadmap sees the new status. You can also email the person who sent the request straight from the ticket. Yaplet doesn't email every voter.

Can I run more than one board?

Yes. Run separate boards for product, support, mobile or anything else, each with its own columns, request forms and permissions.

Which plans include the public roadmap?

The Starter and Growth plans include the public roadmap and feature requests, with multiple boards, board permissions and custom request forms. On the free plan you can add them as the Feedback boards & bug tracker add-on.

Can Yaplet help sort the requests?

Yes. Ask Yaplet in your dashboard to file a request, move it to another column, change its priority, add a note or email the person who asked. It waits for your Confirm each time.
