Core concepts

The Feedjolt mental model: workspaces hold boards, boards hold posts, and posts have votes, comments, statuses, and tags. The model fits on a napkin.

The model is small enough to fit on a napkin.

Workspace
└── Board
    └── Post
        ├── Votes
        ├── Comments (public + internal)
        ├── Status
        └── Tags

A few extras live alongside:

  • Members belong to the workspace and have a role.
  • End users are your customers; they vote and submit feedback.
  • Statuses are workspace-scoped and customizable.
  • Tags are workspace-scoped.
  • Subscriptions route notifications to email or Slack channels.
  • Integrations sit at the workspace level.

The pages

  • Workspaces - the top-level container.
  • Boards - collections of posts.
  • Posts - feedback items.
  • Statuses - where a post is in your workflow.
  • Voting - how prioritization works.
  • Comments - public + internal threads.
  • Tags - labels for filtering.

If you understand workspaces, boards, and posts you can skip ahead to Workflow. Everything else is detail.
