Changelog

Announce what shipped. Where customers already work.

A product changelog tied to your customers’ requests: each release becomes an announcement, on your portal and inside your app through the changelog widget. The people who asked for it know it’s for them.

Changelog included in the free plan · Widget in one script tag · No credit card

For your customers

A changelog widget, inside your product.

An unread counter

A badge shows how many announcements haven’t been seen yet. You choose its colour.

Key announcements open first

For an important announcement, turn on auto-open: the widget opens on its own to show it.

“Request shipped”

An announcement linked to a request carries a “Request shipped” badge. Customers connect it with what they voted for.

Notified if they want to be

On publication, customers who opted in get the announcement in the portal and by email. Off by default, never forced.

An image for each announcement

Title, content and an optional cover image: enough to show the change rather than describe it.

In English or French

The widget and the changelog follow your workspace’s language.

On your portal

A public changelog, linked to shipped requests.

Every announcement has its place on your portal, next to the requests and the roadmap. It links to the requests it delivers, and the people who voted for them are notified of the status change.

AThe Acme team

Good news, it’s shipped!

The request you follow has just moved to “Shipped”.

The loop is closed.

Your latest updates also appear inside your product with the changelog widget.

For your team

Release notes that start from shipped requests.

  1. /01

    Ship

    Every shipped request joins the day’s changelog draft. A completed Linear issue prepares a draft too (Pro plan).

  2. /02

    Write

    Review the draft, add a cover image and link the announcement to the requests it delivers.

  3. /03

    Schedule

    Publish now or pick a date and time. The announcement goes out when planned.

  4. /04

    Notify

    The announcement appears on the portal and in the widget. Customers subscribed to announcements are notified.

A changelog widget in one script tag

Paste one line into your application. For a public portal, no API key is needed.

  • Floating button, built-in button (data-peal-changelog-button) or your own button (data-peal-changelog).
  • Opens as a centred popup or a side panel.
  • A JavaScript API to control the widget from your code.
  • Works with a private portal too, through custom SSO (Pro plan).
  • Remove the “Powered by pealHQ” mention (Starter plan).

A product changelog tied to your feedback

Each announcement can point to the requests it delivers. Customers see that their vote counted; your team keeps a record of what shipped and for whom.

  • Drafts and scheduled publication.
  • “Request shipped” badge on announcements linked to a request.
  • A daily draft of shipped requests, ready to review.

Frequently asked questions

What people ask us.

How do I add the changelog widget to my app?

Paste a script tag into your application. The widget adds a floating button, or attaches to an existing button through a data attribute. The integration guide covers every option.

Do I need an API key?

Not for a public portal. For a private portal, the widget relies on custom SSO to recognise your users (Pro plan).

Do customers get an email for every announcement?

Only if they choose to. Announcement notifications are off by default: each customer turns them on in their notification preferences.

Can I import my past release notes?

Yes, from a CSV file. Your product changelog starts with its full history.

Is the changelog included in the free plan?

Yes, like the portal and the roadmap. Removing the “Powered by pealHQ” mention from the portal and the widget requires the Starter plan.
