Changelog software for teams that ship often
If your team ships weekly, you need a place customers can follow to see what changed. Paperstick is changelog software built around one job: make every release land, without the DIY maintenance of doing it yourself.
Why teams start looking for changelog software
It usually starts the same way. You ship a feature. A customer asks you a week later if it exists yet. You realise the same update has been retyped into a Slack thread, an email draft, and a paragraph someone added to the blog, but there's no canonical URL customers can check. Changelog software gives you that source of truth: one stable, readable home for what's new.
What setup actually looks like
The best part of dedicated changelog software is how little setup it takes. Name your changelog, pick a short URL, and the public page is live. No DNS to configure, no static site to deploy, no design work before you can ship your first update.
What to look for in changelog software
- Fast enough to actually publish every release, not just the big ones
- Customer-friendly layout (version, date, type, full story) readable by non-engineers
- Hosted public pages with RSS, filters by type, and a permalink on every update
- Multiple changelogs per account when you have more than one product
- Flat team pricing, no per-seat math just to invite a colleague
Why teams pick Paperstick
Paperstick does one thing: it makes shipping visible. You write release notes in a clean dashboard, publish to a calm public page on %{host}, and stop maintaining a homegrown 'updates' page nobody owns. Whole team on one subscription, founder-led support, and a 30-day trial.
Who it's a good fit for
Best for SaaS and product teams shipping at least once a week to a mixed audience of customers, not just developers. If your entire audience is engineers who already live in GitHub, GitHub Releases may be enough. If your audience is broader than that, Paperstick is built for them.
