A free feedback board for your product
Your users suggest features, vote for the ones they want and comment. You answer, merge duplicates and mark what is planned or done. Dozokit Ideas runs in your own account at Cloudflare, a company that runs websites, so there is no price per user and nobody can switch it off.
Install it yourself
It takes about five minutes. You need a Cloudflare account and a GitHub account, both free. The button sets everything up in your account and asks you to choose the password for your admin page.
Source code on GitHub. Open source, under the AGPL-3.0 licence.
I’ll install it for you

Email meWhat you get
- No sign-up for your users
- Your product sends them in with a signed link that carries their name and email, so they vote straight away. Nobody makes another account.
- Fewer duplicates
- While someone types an idea, up to 3 similar ones show under it, so they can vote for one instead. You merge the rest into one idea.
- Your answers stand out
- Give each idea a status (planned, in progress, done, or your own) and reply: your comments show as Official answer.
- Public or private
- Anyone with a public board’s link can read it. A private board shows nothing to anyone your product didn’t send. Each board has its own logo, colour and language.
Good to know
- Cloudflare’s free plan allows 100,000 requests a day. Opening a board uses 3, so about 33,000 board views a day (an estimate, not yet measured on a live board).
- Only people your product sends in can vote, suggest and comment. Your product makes that signed link, so a developer adds it once.
- No email is ever sent: nobody is told when an idea’s status changes.
- A board shows its 200 most recent or most voted ideas.
- Every Sunday, your boards, ideas, votes and comments are copied to storage in your own Cloudflare account. The last 4 copies are kept.
FAQ
Is Dozokit Ideas free?
Yes. It is free and open source, with no price per user. The Cloudflare account that runs it has a free plan of 100,000 requests a day.
Do my users need an account?
No. Your product sends them in with a signed link that carries their name and email. On a public board, anyone can read without signing in.
Can I use it without a developer?
You can create boards, post ideas and share a public board’s link right away. For your users to vote and suggest, your product has to make the signed link. Copy instructions for your developer copies everything needed, to give to a developer or a coding assistant.
Can I have several boards?
Yes, from one install: one per product or per topic, each with its own link, statuses and look.
