Why Quackback?

Most feedback tools are expensive, closed-source, and lock you in. Quackback gives you a modern feedback system you actually own.

Self-host for free. Run on your own infrastructure. No per-seat pricing.
Own your data. Your feedback lives in your PostgreSQL database. No vendor lock-in.
AI-native. Built-in MCP server lets AI agents search, triage, and act on feedback directly.
14 integrations. Slack, Linear, Jira, GitHub, Intercom, Zendesk, and more out of the box.

Features

Feedback boards. Public voting, status tracking, nested comments, reactions, and official responses.
Embeddable widget. Drop a script tag into your app and collect feedback without leaving the page.
Admin inbox. Unified triage view with filtering, bulk actions, and automatic deduplication.
Roadmap. Show users what you're planning, working on, and what's shipped.
Changelog. Publish updates and close the loop when features ship.
Integrations. Sync with Slack, Linear, Jira, GitHub, Asana, ClickUp, Intercom, Zendesk, HubSpot, Discord, Teams, Shortcut, Azure DevOps, and Zapier.
Inbound webhooks. Two-way status sync with your issue tracker.
API & webhooks. API keys and outbound webhooks for custom workflows.
MCP server. Let AI agents interact with your feedback data via the Model Context Protocol.
