FeedbackKit vs Nolt: Native In-App Voting or a Simple Board

Nolt is known for being simple. You get a clean hosted board where people post and upvote ideas, statuses you name yourself, a roadmap and a changelog, and every plan has unlimited users, admins and content at a flat monthly rate. FeedbackKit is built for a different job: native SDKs put the board inside your app, and requests are ranked by the MRR of the users behind them.

We make FeedbackKit, so read this with that in mind. Every Nolt fact below comes from Nolt's own pricing, integrations and help pages, checked on 17 October 2026 and linked where used. Nolt's site blocks scripted fetches, so we read it in a browser. The side-by-side table is on our FeedbackKit vs Nolt compare page; this post goes into more depth.

The short version

• Nolt is a hosted feedback board with custom statuses, a roadmap built from those statuses, a changelog, and a website widget. Integrations run from GitHub and Trello on Essential to Jira, Linear, monday.com, Asana, Zapier and Make on Pro. There is also an EU-hosted region with its own prices.
• FeedbackKit is in-app feedback and feature voting for app teams, with native SDKs, MRR ranking on every plan, native admin apps, and a free plan.
• Nolt suits a team that wants a public web board, its own status names and a changelog. FeedbackKit suits a team whose users are in a native app and who prioritise by revenue.

Getting feedback in

Nolt: a board you link to or embed

Nolt's board lives on a nolt.io subdomain or your own domain. Its website widget guide gives three ways into it: a modal that shows the board or roadmap on top of your page, an iframe of the board, and a Nolt-branded button. Single sign-on through a JSON web token lets your signed-in users post without a separate Nolt login. The embedding guide also suggests a plain link from your help menu or footer. Nolt lists no native iOS, Android, Flutter or React Native SDK. For developers there is a GraphQL API, an MCP server, webhooks and, on Pro, data export APIs.

FeedbackKit: native SDKs

FeedbackKit has SDKs for Swift and SwiftUI (iOS, macOS and visionOS), Kotlin with Jetpack Compose (Android), Flutter and React Native. Each ships ready-made screens: a request list, a submit form, a detail view with comments, and vote buttons. The JavaScript SDK is a headless client for the web with no screens. There is also a Vapor SDK for server-side Swift and a REST API, but no outgoing webhooks.

The honest caveat: the Swift SDK needs iOS 26, macOS 26 or visionOS 26 or later, with no watchOS or tvOS. If you support older iOS versions, it is not an option for you yet. Docs: Swift, Kotlin, Flutter, React Native.

On your website, FeedbackKit can show a project's roadmap and its board of requests on your own website through an iframe, and it has a feedback form page you can embed the same way. The board shows open requests in status columns with their vote counts, and visitors can vote on it when you turn voting on. Embeds are on every plan, in light or dark. There is no changelog for your users, and no hosted roadmap site on your own domain.

Here is how that looks in FeedbackKit, with sample data from a fictional hiking app:

Managing feedback

Statuses are where Nolt is most flexible. Its statuses guide says you can create, name and reorder as many statuses as you like, on any post, and the order carries over to the roadmap. Two system statuses, Completed and Archived, are fixed. The pricing page lists custom statuses, custom fields, private boards and the roadmap on every plan, and adds password-protected boards, domain-restricted access and moderation tools on Pro.

FeedbackKit is more fixed. It has six built-in statuses on every plan: Pending, Approved, In Progress, TestFlight, Completed and Rejected, and Pro and up choose which ones a project uses. There are no custom statuses. If your workflow needs its own names, Nolt is the better fit. A new FeedbackKit request starts with its submitter's vote, voting stops at Completed and Rejected, merging duplicates counts each voter once, and a rejected request can carry a reason. You triage from the web dashboard or the native admin apps for iPhone, iPad and Mac.

Revenue behind each request

This is the clearest gap on Nolt's side. Nolt does not list revenue ranking. Its user attributes, on Pro and Enterprise, let you tag users with values such as customer tier or region and filter the board by them, which helps you see what a segment wants, but it does not add up revenue per request.

In FeedbackKit, your app passes each user's MRR through the SDK, on every plan, and requests can be sorted by the total MRR of the users behind them. If Offline maps has 248 votes and Elevation profile has 87, the MRR sort tells you whether the smaller group pays you more.

Here is how triage looks in FeedbackKit, with the same sample hiking app:

Integrations

Nolt's column is from its integrations page and pricing page, as of 17 October 2026.

Nolt mentions two-way sync with selected project-management tools without naming them on the integrations page. FeedbackKit's nine trackers all have status sync; GitHub has no comment sync, and GitHub, Linear, Trello and Basecamp have no vote-count sync. The matrix is on the integrations page. FeedbackKit has no Jira, Azure DevOps, Zapier, Make, Microsoft Teams or Discord integration, and its integrations all need Pro, while Nolt's Essential plan already includes Slack, Discord, GitHub and Trello.

Closing the loop

When a Nolt admin or moderator changes a post's status, everyone who took part in the discussion or subscribed to the post gets an email. Nolt's changelog is on by default for new boards, and an entry can be written by hand or generated from feedback posts or GitHub commits.

FeedbackKit has no changelog for your users. It sends status email: the person who submitted a request is emailed on every plan when the new status is on the project's list, which starts as Approved, In Progress, Completed and Rejected. Choosing that list needs Pro, and emailing voters who opted in needs Team. Your app's users get status email, never push. Your team gets email for new requests on every plan, and push for new requests and new comments in the FeedbackKit app. New-comment email to the team needs Pro, and Slack is on Pro and up. More in our post on status emails.

Pricing

From Nolt's global pricing and EU pricing, and our pricing page, checked on 17 October 2026. Nolt's yearly prices are shown per month and billed as one yearly amount.

Nolt is flat-rate: every plan includes unlimited users, content and admins, and the price scales by board count and region. There is no free plan, and new boards start with a 10-day trial of Pro with no card. FeedbackKit's yearly billing saves about 17%, with no limit on voters on any plan. Past the Free cap of 10, new items are saved and left off the board. More in Nolt pricing and Nolt alternatives.

So which one

Choose Nolt if you want a simple hosted web board with a roadmap and changelog, and unlimited users and admins on every plan. Choose it if you want statuses named to fit your workflow, if your community talks on Discord or your team uses Microsoft Teams, Jira, Zapier or Make, or if you want your data hosted in the EU. It does one job cleanly.

Choose FeedbackKit if your product is a native iOS, macOS, Android, Flutter or React Native app and you want voting and comments in native UI inside it. Choose it if you want requests ranked by the MRR of the users behind them, on every plan, if your team plans work in Notion, ClickUp, Airtable or Basecamp, or if you want a free plan rather than a trial.

The fastest way to decide is to watch real users with each. Start free with FeedbackKit and put the board in a test build.
