Quackback is live

Quackback is here — an open-source alternative to Canny, UserVoice, and Productboard that you can self-host or run in the cloud.

We built Quackback because collecting customer feedback shouldn't require expensive SaaS subscriptions or giving up control of your data. Here's what's included from day one.

Feedback boards

Create public voting boards where your users can submit ideas, upvote what matters most, and discuss in comments.

With feedback boards, you can:

• Organize feedback by product area with multiple boards
• Track status from open through to shipped
• Detect duplicates before they pile up
• Let users comment, react, and follow posts for updates

Admin inbox

A unified triage view to stay on top of everything coming in.

• Filter by status, board, tags, votes, or response state
• Use bulk actions to triage faster
• See analytics on feedback volume and trends

Roadmap & changelog

Show your users what's planned and close the loop when features ship. Link changelog entries to completed feedback so voters know their voice was heard.

Embeddable widget

Collect feedback from inside your app with a single script tag. Configure placement, board targeting, and theme to match your product — no iframes, no pop-ups.

14 integrations

Connect with Slack, Linear, Jira, GitHub, Asana, ClickUp, Shortcut, Azure DevOps, Intercom, Zendesk, HubSpot, Discord, Teams, and Zapier.

Two-way sync keeps statuses aligned with your issue tracker, so when an issue is marked "Done" in Linear, the feedback post updates automatically.

REST API & MCP server

Full programmatic access with API keys and outbound webhooks. A Model Context Protocol server ships out of the box with 7 tools, so AI agents can search, create, vote, and comment on feedback.

Self-host anywhere

Your data stays on your infrastructure. Quackback supports:

• Docker and Docker Compose
• Railway one-click deploy
• Any S3-compatible storage (AWS, MinIO, Cloudflare R2)
• Any SMTP provider or Resend for transactional email
