SimpleBoards adds a public ideas board and roadmap to your WordPress site. Customers post requests, vote on what matters, and follow what you ship next. You stop hunting through email threads and start building from real demand.

inside WordPress

From the first user request to the day you ship, SimpleBoards keeps the whole loop in one place. The data lives on your server, so nothing leaves your control.

Voting & Sorting

One vote per user per idea. The most-wanted features rise to the top, so you plan from real numbers instead of guessing.

Torin AI Assistant

Torin reads every idea, groups duplicates, classifies user intent, and tells you what to build next. Planning drops from hours of manual sorting to a 30-second review.

Torin AI, included in every Pro plan

Your ideas board, with a thinking layer

Torin reads every idea on your board, finds patterns, spots duplicates, and suggests what to build next. Teams using Torin cut planning time by about 70%, so they ship the right things faster.

Duplicate detection

Flags ideas that say the same thing differently. Merge in one click instead of hunting through hundreds of submissions.

Intent classification

Every idea gets tagged as a bug, feature, workflow pain, or question. You filter your board by what users actually mean instead of guessing.

Next action suggestions

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

FAQ

Common questions

How do I show the board on my site?

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

Can visitors submit ideas without an account?

Yes. Enable guest submissions in plugin settings. Lower friction means more feedback without forcing users to create accounts.

Can I import ideas from LoopedIn?

Yes. Upload your LoopedIn CSV and we import titles, descriptions, statuses, dates, and vote counts. Allow duplicates or overwrite by title to match your migration needs.

Does it conflict with my WordPress theme?

SimpleBoards uses scoped styles that protect the board UI from most theme style conflicts. The board looks consistent regardless of which theme you use.

What does Pro add on top of free?

Pro adds private boards, announcements, workflow automations, full board design controls, checklist progress on cards, saved theme presets, advanced email flows, and Torin AI for idea analysis.

Your roadmap belongs on your site.
