Productboard alternative

Looph vs Productboard: one workspace price instead of per-maker seats

Productboard is a product-management suite that happens to include a portal. Looph is a customer-facing feedback loop, priced per workspace.

Productboard pricing model

Per maker, with a five-maker minimum on Business and Enterprise and monthly AI credit allowances. No plan prices are published: Business is sold through a demo request, Enterprise through sales.

Looph pricing model

Per-workspace plans. Members are free and unlimited on every plan; admin seats, boards and tracked voters are set by plan, and the bill only moves when you change plan. Starter is $19/mo, or $190/yr billed yearly; Growth is $59/mo, or $590/yr billed yearly; Business is $179/mo, or $1,790/yr billed yearly.

The honest version

Where Productboard fits

If your problem is internal prioritisation across a large product org — objectives, insights repositories, multiple teamspaces — Productboard is built for exactly that and Looph is not. If your problem is that customers can't see what you're building and you can't tell what they want most, Looph does that job without per-maker seats or AI credits.

What Productboard does well

  • Productboard's insights repository and prioritisation frameworks go far deeper than Looph's.
  • Productboard's Business plan includes 25 contributors and 500 AI credits per maker each month, and contributors do not count as makers.
  • Both Productboard plans include portal moderation, custom voting questions and an embedded portal.

Reasons to switch

Three reasons to choose Looph over Productboard

  • No seat minimum to work aroundBoth Productboard plans carry a five-maker minimum. Looph has no minimum on any plan — a solo founder pays the listed plan price, or nothing on Free.
  • A predictable bill at any sizeProductboard's cost compounds — per maker, with seat minimums and metered AI credits. Looph is one published plan price for the whole workspace, with no credit ledger to watch.
  • Built for the customer-facing half of the loopPublic boards, voting, roadmap and changelog are the product here, not a portal module inside a heavier suite.

Questions

Looph and Productboard FAQ

For customer-facing feedback collection, voting, public roadmaps and changelogs, yes. For deep internal prioritisation — insight repositories, objectives, multi-teamspace planning — Productboard does more and we'd say so plainly.

Productboard no longer publishes plan prices: Business is sold through a demo request and Enterprise through sales, both priced per maker with a five-maker minimum. Looph publishes every plan for the whole workspace, with members free: Starter $19/mo, or $190/yr billed yearly, Growth $59/mo, or $590/yr billed yearly and Business $179/mo, or $1,790/yr billed yearly.

You lose Productboard's frameworks but keep the signal that feeds them: vote and comment counts per request, readable through the API, and on Growth and above the company, plan and MRR behind each request's voters once Segment is connected.
