Where each tool wins

Pick Nolt if

You want more around the board. Nolt has a roadmap, JWT SSO on its entry plan, AI-drafted changelog entries, emails to upvoters when a status changes, and a custom domain. Its integrations run from Slack and GitHub on Essential to Jira, Linear and Zapier on Pro. It has been around since 2018. ShipLog has none of the roadmap, SSO, voter emails or custom domains, so if you need them, Nolt is the better pick.

Pick ShipLog if

You are one founder who wants the board, the changelog and the widget for less: $90/yr against $348/yr for Nolt's Essential plan. You want a free tier with no deadline, where Nolt's trial ends after 10 days. Or you run several products: five ShipLog projects cost $450/yr, and five boards on Nolt Pro cost $828/yr.

Does Nolt have a changelog and a widget?
Yes. Nolt turns a changelog on by default for new boards, can draft entries with AI, and offers a modal, an iframe or a button for your site. Its pricing page does not say which plans include them. ShipLog includes its changelog and widget on every plan, free included, and readers follow the changelog by RSS.
Do Nolt and ShipLog both work with AI agents?
Both have an MCP server that can read and change your board. Nolt's signs in through OAuth, and its help page lists six supported clients. Nolt does not publish which plans include it. ShipLog's is included on every plan, free included, and it can also publish changelog entries.
What does Nolt have that ShipLog does not?
A roadmap, SSO, emails to upvoters when a status changes, AI-drafted changelog entries, a custom domain and a longer list of integrations. ShipLog tracks each item with a status and a filter on the public board, not a roadmap view, and it has no SSO, no voter emails and no custom domains.
How do I migrate from Nolt to ShipLog?
There's no one-click importer yet. Nolt says CSV exports are free on all plans, so export your board first. Then create a ShipLog project and connect its MCP server, which is open on every plan, and have your AI agent import each row with the create_feedback tool. Vote counts do not carry over. Email hello@shiplog.ca and we'll help you move your board.
