Where each tool wins

Pick Canny if

Canny's Autopilot AI pulls feedback out of support tickets and sales calls, deduplicates it and triages it. If hundreds of requests land every week and a PM team works the queue, it earns its price. Enterprise needs (SSO, integrations at depth) are Canny territory too.

Pick ShipLog if

You're one founder. Canny's entry price is $79/mo billed yearly and the bill grows with your audience — a "tracked user" is anyone who votes. ShipLog is $9 flat, the free plan has every feature under 50 feedback items, and your AI agent connects on the free plan instead of at $79.
