  • UserJot. UserJot is free with two boards and Featurebase for one seat, while VoteFirst Free holds one project and 100 votes.

Every tool wins somewhere. Here is where.

Pick a tool to see where it beats the rest.

Choose Featurebase if you want

  • A free plan with your own domain. It gives one seat, one board and one roadmap, on your own address.
  • API, MCP and webhooks from Growth. On VoteFirst, a REST API comes on Pro and there are no webhooks.
  • The widest imports. It reads Canny, Productboard, Frill, Beamer and CSV, which is the longest list here.

Choose Frill if you want

  • API, SSO and a domain at $25. All three come on the Startup plan.
  • Unlimited admins and a trial with no card. The trial runs 14 days and asks for no card.

Choose UserJot if you want

  • A free plan with three team members. It also gives two boards, a public roadmap and a changelog at no cost.
  • The deepest Canny import. It brings posts, votes, comments and changelog entries from Canny, and it reads Nolt, ProductRoad and CSV too.

Choose VoteFirst if you want

  • A $9 first plan. Lite is $16 to $20/mo under the others, with a changelog on the plan.
  • Votes weighted by what voters pay. It is on every plan, and no other page here states it.
  • A price that does not grow per seat. Featurebase bills each seat, while VoteFirst Pro is $39/mo for the plan.
  • A Swift package for your app. A native kit puts voting inside your iOS or macOS app.

Start alone, and add a teammate without the price jumping.

Pro is a flat $39/mo with the team included, while Featurebase bills each seat.

Lite at $9/mo covers one project while you are on your own.

What each plan includes

Hear your best customers before the crowd.

Load plans from Stripe, Paddle or a CSV and your list sorts by the customers who matter most.

None of the other three pricing pages mention a weighting by customer.

How weighted voting works

Put the board where your users already are.

Add the widget to your own site, or the Swift package to your iOS and macOS apps.

Votes land on the same cards either way.

All the widgets for your site

What you gain by choosing the right tool

A first bill you can afford

Lite is $9/mo, so a one person product can start small and grow into Pro.

A team without seats

Pro covers the team at one price, so a first hire does not change the bill.

Customers who matter first

Weighted votes sort the list by the people you most want to keep.

Feedback where your users are

A widget for the web and a Swift package for your app keep votes close.

Try VoteFirst on your own product.

Start with an empty board, or paste a public Canny or Featurebase board.

  1. Start the 14 day trial

    It runs Pro for 14 days. A card is asked at signup.

  2. Add the widget or the Swift package

    Voters post and vote on your own site or inside your app.

  3. Turn on revenue weighting

    Connect Stripe or Paddle, or upload a CSV, and requests rank by what voters pay.

What comes across

  • Post titles and descriptions from a public Canny or Featurebase board
  • Statuses
  • Vote counts

What stays behind

  • Private boards
  • Integrations set up in the other tool
  • Comments and changelog entries
