Introducing the UserJot API and MCP server

We shipped two new ways to work with UserJot outside the dashboard: a public API for custom integrations, and a remote MCP server for AI agents.

Build with the UserJot API

The new API lets you manage UserJot from your own backend, scripts, and internal tools.

You can create and update boards, requests, comments, votes, tags, changelogs, members, companies, and company relationships. It uses API tokens from your workspace settings and includes an OpenAPI reference in the API docs.

Connect UserJot to your AI agent

We also launched a remote MCP server at https://api.userjot.com/v1/mcp.

Connect Claude Code, Cursor, Codex, ChatGPT, Windsurf, or any remote MCP-compatible client with a UserJot API token. Once connected, your agent can inspect feedback, triage requests, update statuses, move items across boards, draft changelogs, and link shipped requests.

The setup details are in the MCP docs.

Work where you already are

Use the API when you want to build your own integration. Use MCP when you want an AI agent to work with UserJot directly.

Both are available from your workspace API settings.

Also shipped

  • Added notification preferences for turning different notification types on or off.

  • Fixed YouTube links breaking live changelog pages.

  • Added support for embedding YouTube links in updates and changelog posts.

Better moderation, smoother workflows, and more

We’ve shipped a set of improvements focused on making UserJot easier to manage day to day, especially for teams handling feedback at scale.

More control over users and profiles

You can now ban users from posting feedback, giving teams a straightforward way to handle abuse, spam, or repeat bad actors.

Better internal workflows for teams

Teams can now keep private internal notes on public board requests. That means you can discuss context, edge cases, and internal decisions without exposing those conversations to customers.

We also improved request management with a Kanban board for tracking work, making it easier to move through feedback and keep progress visible.

On top of that, merge activity now appears in the feedback activity section, so when requests get combined, the history is clearer and conversations make more sense afterward.

Less friction when replying and publishing updates

Reply drafts are now saved to local storage, so if a page reloads unexpectedly, you’re much less likely to lose a response you were writing.

We also removed the automatic heart on your own replies. Hearts now better reflect intentional reactions instead of being added by default.

And for changelog authors, links inside update bodies now work properly instead of being removed or opening incorrectly.

Smaller polish fixes

We also shipped a number of smaller usability and UI improvements along the way, continuing to smooth out rough edges across the product.

Changelog Editor Gets Smarter & Faster

Changelog Editor Gets Smarter

We've made some solid improvements to how the changelog editor works so you can focus on what matters.

Autosave is here: Your work now saves automatically every few seconds as you type. No more "did I save that?" moments or losing work if you accidentally close the tab or your browser crashes. Your drafts are safe.

Fixed the bubble menu: The formatting toolbar now correctly reflects what's actually selected in your text. No more confusing mismatches between what you see and what's actually happening.

Performance Improvements & Smarter AI

We've optimized the editor and upgraded our AI system to be significantly faster and smarter. You'll notice faster responses when you're using AI features to generate or improve your changelog content.

Control who sees your Roadmap & Changelog

You can now make your Roadmap and Changelog private while keeping everything else public.

What's new:

  • Toggle Roadmap visibility on/off independently.

  • Toggle Changelog visibility on/off independently.

  • Changes take effect immediately across all public pages and widget

Why this matters: Sometimes you want to collect feedback publicly but keep your plans private. Or share your changelog but not your roadmap. Now you have full control, use UserJot however works best for your team.

Where to find it: Workspace → Settings → Changelog tab (for changelog) or Feedback tab (for roadmap)

Smarter submissions & Discord integration

We shipped updates to make submissions smarter, cut down on noise, and deliver product updates straight to your team's Discord and Slack channels.

Smarter submissions 🧠

Smarter defaults and moderation tools so your boards stay useful and signal-to-noise stays high.

What's new:

 Discord & Slack integrations 🔔

Keep your team in sync without leaving Discord or Slack.

What's new:

  • Notifications to Discord & Slack: send new submissions, comments, and status updates to a channel. Supports Discord webhooks and Slack. You can configure it per workspace so you control what gets posted.
Rollout & where to find it

These features are now available for everyone. You can enable guest submissions and Discord or Slack webhooks from Settings › Integrations & Boards.
