Everything the loop needs

From first request to shipped feature

One place for the whole feedback loop. Collect ideas, plan what to build, then tell people when it ships. Free and Pro, organized by where they fit.

Collect feedback

Ideas board

People post ideas right on your site. Each one collects votes and comments, so you hear what users actually want.

Voting and sorting

One vote per person per idea. The most-wanted requests rise to the top, so you plan from real demand.

Guest submissions

Visitors submit without an account. Less friction means more honest feedback from the people who use your product.

Moderation queue

New submissions wait for your review before they go public, so nothing unwanted lands on your board.

Comments and discussion

Every idea has a threaded discussion through the native WordPress comment system. No extra setup.

Plan the roadmap

Pro

Private boards

Restrict a board by WordPress role. Keep internal planning separate from your public roadmap, down to the item.

Public roadmap

Show planned, in progress, and shipped work in a clean board. Visitors stop emailing to ask what is next.

Filter and search

Category filters and keyword search across the roadmap and ideas. Long boards stay quick to move through.

Statuses and categories

Edit the default stages or create your own, and group ideas into categories that match how your team thinks.

Ship & announce

Pro

Workflow automations

Act automatically when an idea passes a vote threshold, changes status, or runs overdue. Less chasing, faster replies.

Pro

Announcements

Publish product updates in a tab and a widget. Users see the news the moment they open your board.

Pro

Board design controls

Set layout, colors, type, vote styles, and spacing. Make the board look like the rest of your site.

Pro

Checklist progress

Track subtasks inside a roadmap card, and show that progress right on the board as it moves toward done.

Torin AI, in every Pro plan

Your ideas board, with a thinking layer

Torin reads every idea on the board, finds the patterns, spots the duplicates, and suggests what to build next. You review its read and decide, instead of sorting from scratch.

Duplicate detection

Flags ideas that say the same thing in different words, so you can merge them in one place.

Intent classification

Tags each idea as a bug, a feature, a workflow pain, or a question, so you can filter by what people actually mean.

Next-step suggestions

Based on votes and your roadmap, Torin recommends whether to plan, merge, archive, or escalate each idea.

FAQ

Questions, answered

How do I show the board on my site?

Add [sbir_board product="board-slug"] to any page or post. The board renders right there with your roadmap, ideas, voting, and filters.

Can visitors submit ideas without an account?

Yes. Turn on guest submissions in the plugin settings. Lower friction means more feedback, without forcing anyone to sign up.

Can I import ideas from LoopedIn?

Yes. Upload your LoopedIn CSV and it brings across titles, descriptions, statuses, dates, and vote counts. Choose to allow duplicates or overwrite by title to match your migration.

Will it clash with my WordPress theme?

The board uses scoped styles that hold up against most theme conflicts, so it looks consistent whichever theme you run.

What does Pro add on top of free?

Private boards, announcements, workflow automations, full board design controls, checklist progress on cards, saved design presets, richer email flows, and Torin AI for idea analysis.

Your roadmap belongs on your own site

Stop tracking requests across email, chat, and support tickets. Run the whole loop on the WordPress site you already maintain.
