What Relnotely includes
One plan, $19 a month:
- Your changelog on your own domain, an in-app widget, and email to subscribers who confirm their address.
- A Feedback board where your users post ideas and vote on them, and a public Roadmap, on the same domain. Voters are never counted or capped.
- A page of its own for every entry, and an Atom feed.
- Import from a feed, a CSV or a
CHANGELOG.md. - No Relnotely badge, watermark or "powered by" link on your changelog, on any plan. By default our name is not on the page, in the feed or in the widget. Subscriber email goes out under your name, with your postal address and your privacy policy in the footer, from a sending address of ours, which is the one place in it our name appears. On the page, the one place it can appear is a line in the small print under the subscribe form, and only if you choose to say who delivers your emails.
- No third-party scripts on your changelog.
Writing is free and needs no card; publishing starts a 7-day trial. There is one login per account and no team seats.

Our view
Opinion, not a claim about AnnounceKit: we think a changelog on your own address, without another company's name on it, is the base case rather than an upgrade — so both are in the $19 plan and we do not sell a way to remove a badge, because we do not put one there. If you need the roadmap, the segmentation and the rest of the suite, that is a different product to the one we are building.
