--- title: Relnotely vs Canny: a changelog, or a feedback suite with one description: A dated, sourced comparison of Relnotely and Canny — the plans Canny listed on 22 September 2026, how tracked-user pricing works, and which of the two fits if all you need is a changelog. canonical: https://relnotely.com/compare/canny published: 2026-09-22 updated: 2026-09-22 --- # Relnotely vs Canny Canny's pricing page lists a free plan with 25 tracked users and Pro from $79 a month billed yearly, for feedback management with a changelog included. Relnotely is a changelog only, at $19 a month. Canny and Relnotely overlap on one feature. Canny's pricing page describes a feedback product — capture, deduplication, boards, roadmaps — with a changelog in its feature table; Relnotely is only the changelog. This page is written by Relnotely. Everything stated here about Canny is taken from [Canny's own pricing page](https://canny.io/pricing), read on **22 September 2026**. Prices and plans change; check theirs before deciding, and tell us if anything here is out of date. ## What Canny's pricing page listed on 22 September 2026 - **Free: $0 a month,** with 25 tracked users, automatic feedback capture and unlimited feedback. - **Pro: starts at $79 a month, billed yearly,** with 100 or more tracked users, project-management integrations and advanced privacy. The page offers 20% off for yearly billing. - **Business: priced on request,** with 5,000 or more tracked users, SSO and CRM integrations. - **Plans are sized by tracked users,** which the page defines as any user associated with feedback. - The feature table lists, among much else, a changelog, custom domains, "Remove branding", user segmentation, a feedback portal with unlimited boards, and integrations with Jira, Linear, Slack, Intercom and Zendesk. Which plan includes each is shown in their table; we have not reproduced it here. ## 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 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. Our name appears in one place: the small print under the subscribe form, which says who stores an address entered there, and the footer's links to our privacy policy and terms for the same reason. - No third-party scripts on your changelog. Writing is free and needs no card; publishing starts a 7-day trial. One login per account, and one changelog. ## Side by side, as each pricing page listed on 22 September 2026 | | Relnotely | Canny | | --- | --- | --- | | What it is | A changelog | Feedback management, with a changelog among its features | | Priced by | One changelog | Tracked users | | Free plan | None — writing is free, publishing is paid | Listed, with 25 tracked users | | Entry paid price | $19/month | Pro from $79/month, billed yearly | | Feedback boards, voting, roadmap | Not offered | Listed | | User segmentation | Not offered | Listed | | Integrations with issue trackers and support tools | Not offered | Listed | | Managers (team members) | One login per account | 5 on Free, 10 on Pro | Rows are limited to what both pricing pages state. ## Where Canny may suit you better - **Feedback is the job.** Capturing, deduplicating and prioritising requests is what their plans are built around, and Relnotely does none of it. - **You want the changelog tied to the requests it answers,** so people who asked for something hear when it ships. - **You need integrations** with Jira, Linear, Intercom, Zendesk or a CRM, all listed on their page. - **You can start on their free plan,** which their page lists with 25 tracked users. ## Our view Opinion, not a claim about Canny: if you need feedback management, buy feedback management, and the changelog that comes with it may well be enough. If what you need is a changelog that looks like part of your own site, on your domain, read by people who never gave feedback, a tool that does only that is simpler and costs less than a suite's paid tier. ## Moving from Canny Relnotely imports a changelog from an RSS or Atom feed, a CSV export or a `CHANGELOG.md`, keeping original dates and skipping duplicates, and emails nobody about imported entries. Previewing is free and needs no card. ## Questions **What does Canny cost?** As of 22 September 2026 Canny's pricing page listed a Free plan at $0 with 25 tracked users, Pro starting at $79 a month billed yearly with 100 or more tracked users, and a Business plan priced on request. Check canny.io/pricing for current figures. **What is a tracked user in Canny's pricing?** Their pricing page defines a tracked user as any user associated with feedback — someone who has posted, voted or commented, or had that done on their behalf. As of 22 September 2026, plans were sized by that number. **Is Relnotely an alternative to Canny?** Only for the changelog. Canny is a feedback management product with a changelog among its features; Relnotely publishes release notes to a page, a widget and an email list, and has no feedback boards, voting or roadmap. **Can I use both?** Yes. Nothing stops a team collecting feedback in one tool and publishing its changelog on its own domain with another. Relnotely needs no integration to run beside anything. --- Published by Relnotely at https://relnotely.com/compare/canny
