Introducing Components: the second axis your board was missing
Your feedback board has always been able to tell you what kind of request something is. Now it can also tell you which part of your product it's about. Components are a new, independent dimension: Widget, API, Billing, Mobile app, whatever your product is actually made of. A post can be a Bug (category) about your API (component), and neither field has to pretend to be the other. Why we built it Until now there were two ways to track the product area, and both had a catch: Using categories forced a choice. If your categories are Feature and Bug, they can't also be Web app and API. One axis, not two. Using tags looked tempting, but tags are disposable by design: optional, unlimited, applied inconsistently. "Which part of the product gets the most demand?" is only answerable if the field is on essentially every post. Ask a disposable field for a complete answer and you get numbers nobody trusts. Components give you the second axis without spending your category on it. What you get π§© A dedicated Component field β one per post, always optional, with its own color π A Component filter on your feedback list, alongside Status and Category π₯ Audience scoping β restrict a component to a segment, exactly like a category π Public when you want it β components are internal by default. Two toggles show them on your public board and let customers pick one when they post πΊοΈ Everywhere it matters β the component shows on board posts, detail views, and roadmap cards Optional by design Nothing changes until you want it to. New workspaces start with an empty component list, and if you never add one, the field simply doesn't appear. Add components when you actually have parts worth separating. Try it now Go to Settings β Components and add the handful of parts your product is made of. Keep the list small and stable: if it needs a scroll bar, it's become a tag list. To show components to your customers, flip Public components in Settings β Feedback board. π Read the full guide
