Say your product takes off and 1,000 people have voted or posted on your feedback board. Here is the honest arithmetic, as of July 2026, per each vendor's public pricing.
On FeatureJet: $15/month, or $119/year paid yearly (about $9.92/month effective). The number of voters never appears on the bill, so the math ends here.
On a tracked-user meter (Canny): those 1,000 people are tracked users, billed in 100-user increments above the free plan's 25. Third-party pricing math puts 1,000 tracked users at roughly $275+/month — around $3,300 a year, versus FeatureJet's $119. We didn't compute that figure ourselves, so treat it as an estimate and check Canny's calculator for your exact count.
On a seat meter (Featurebase): 1,000 voters cost nothing extra — the meter is your team. Five teammates on Growth is 5 × $29 = $145/month billed annually; on Professional (where MCP and API access live) it's 5 × $59 = $295/month. Branding removal adds $69/month, and each AI resolution adds $0.49. For a two-person team that never touches the add-ons, this model can be reasonable.
On a board meter (Nolt): reportedly $29/month per board on annual billing. One product, one board: fine. Separate boards for your app, your API, and a beta program would be a reported $87/month.
On an idea cap (Frill): 1,000 engaged voters will generate more than 50 ideas, so the $25/month plan runs out and unlimited ideas costs $49/month.
