Sign Up and See Value Immediately
Create an account with your work email, Google, GitHub, or Microsoft. Your workspace is ready in seconds. A short onboarding wizard walks you through capturing your first idea and choosing your dashboard view — Decide, Track, or Measure — based on your role.
- Sign up with email or SSO (Google, GitHub, Microsoft)
- Workspace created instantly — no setup wizard to wade through
- Capture your first idea during onboarding
- Pick your view: Decide (PM), Track (Eng Lead), or Measure (Exec)
Connect Where Your Team Talks
Install the IdeaLift bot on Slack, Microsoft Teams, or Discord from your integrations page. Each platform has its own capture method — IdeaLift meets your team where they already work. You can do this during onboarding or later.
- Slack: one-click OAuth install, capture via emoji reaction
- Teams: install the bot, capture via right-click Message Extension
- Discord: instant bot invite, capture via emoji reaction
- Opt-in per channel — IdeaLift only listens where you tell it to
Connect Your Tracker When Ready
IdeaLift captures and deduplicates ideas on its own — you don't need a tracker connected to start. When you're ready to push approved ideas as tickets, link your tracker from the integrations page. Projects and labels map automatically.
- Jira Cloud with project and issue type mapping
- GitHub Issues with label sync
- Linear with team and project mapping
- Azure DevOps work items
Your Dashboard Guides You
After onboarding, a floating checklist stays with you until you're fully set up. No pressure — go at your own pace.
Connect your chat app
Install Slack, Teams, or Discord so your team can capture ideas from conversations.
Pick your project tool
Link Jira, GitHub, Linear, or Azure DevOps to push approved ideas as tickets.
Capture your first idea
Capture from your chat app or create one manually from the dashboard.
Import existing feedback
Bring in ideas from CSV or other sources. Optional but helpful if you have a backlog.
What You Don't Need
IdeaLift connects to your existing tools. Your team keeps working exactly how they work today.
No Code Changes
IdeaLift connects via official APIs. Nothing to deploy, no webhooks to configure manually, no SDK to install.
No Data Migration
Start fresh or import existing ideas via CSV. Your Jira, GitHub, and Linear projects stay exactly where they are.
No IT Ticket
No infrastructure changes required. OAuth handles permissions. Some platforms may need an admin to approve the app install.
How Capture Works
Opt in a channel, and IdeaLift's AI starts finding ideas in your conversations automatically. Your team doesn't need to learn anything new.
AI Detects Ideas
IdeaLift monitors opted-in channels and uses AI to identify feature requests, bug reports, and feedback in real time.
Drafts a Full Ticket
Each captured idea gets a complete ticket — title, description, priority, labels — with automatic deduplication against your existing backlog.
You Decide
IdeaLift suggests, you decide. Review each draft, edit if you want, approve what matters. Nothing hits your backlog without your say-so.
Manual Capture Is Always Available Too
Beyond proactive AI capture, your team can also trigger capture manually on any platform.
Slack- Emoji reaction (configurable trigger)
- Opt-in per channel
Microsoft Teams- Right-click Message Extension
- /capture slash command
Discord- Emoji reaction (configurable trigger)
- Bot invite to channels
Common Questions
Do I need admin access to install the bot?
For Slack, any workspace member can install the app if your admin allows third-party apps. For Teams, your IT admin can deploy the bot via the Teams Admin Center, or individual users can install it. For Discord, anyone with "Manage Server" permission can invite the bot.
Can I use IdeaLift without connecting a tracker?
Yes. IdeaLift captures, deduplicates, and organizes ideas on its own. You can connect a tracker later when you're ready to push tickets. Many teams start by just capturing and reviewing.
How does team size work with pricing?
Each plan includes a set number of team members — from 5 on Starter up to 25 on Growth. Check our pricing page for the full breakdown by plan.
What's included in the free Starter tier?
The Starter tier lets you sign up, create a workspace, and explore the product with up to 5 team members, 50 decisions/month, and 10 AI tickets. When you're ready for more, you can start a 14-day free trial of any paid plan.
Is my data secure?
Yes. Every workspace is fully isolated. Data is encrypted in transit (TLS 1.3) and at rest (Azure SQL TDE). We're GDPR compliant with automated data subject access requests. SSO is available on Growth plans and above.
