Write release notes in a block editor with labels, cover images and scheduling, then publish them to the widget feed and a hosted page on your own domain with an unread badge and emoji reactions.
Run NPS, CSAT, CES and PMF surveys using eight question types including rating, smiley and open text. Branch on answers, target by sign-in status, user attribute or page URL, and apply a project-wide fatigue window.
ReleaseDock scans your site, scores keywords from your business profile, builds a content calendar and drafts posts in your brand voice. Publish to a blog on your own domain with SEO metadata, sitemaps and Search Console connection handled.
