A long time coming! Excited to integrate Makelog into our product marketing stack!
👀 I'm pretty sure Makelog just hacked time and made it easier to share product updates
@codecamcode hehe that's what we're going for, Cam! <3 thanks for checking us out!
Congrats on the launch! Excited to test out the Slack and Linear integrations for my little projects.
nice looks great! plugging for a Trello connection ;) and a different destination to be client/user facing
Huge! Excited to see the GPT-3 features. How involved was the effort it to integrate it?
Hey @gomezinla ! Really happy to see you are excited about it. 😄
To answer your question, integrating with GPT-3 was easier than we initially expected. The way we already integrate with existing tools (pulling tickets from Linear, Jira, etc..), allows us to feed the GPT-3 model with valuable data.
Personally, the UX with this flow is what excites me the most --
Filter, search, and select relevant tickets → GPT-3 → Written changelog post. All within the same editor.
Always happy to hear any thoughts, thanks so much for the comment. 😀
Interesting! Does it only capture the title of the ticket or does it also analyse the content of the commits to understand what has actually been done?
@yannick_mthy thanks Yannick! It can take into account issue description too and does a decent job at it! We've tried it with GitHub PRs and gotten mixed results since, obviously, it depends on how good/contextful the commit messages are in the first place!
Great release @juliejennifernguyen!
Change management is a system that's already well incorporated into engineering workflow (version control like Git), so having an automated bridge (ChatGPT) between something that's engineering-readable to other stakeholders could be really powerful now that we have that technology:
e.g.
```
GIT_SHA_1: "CSS changes for new dashboard experience"
GIT_SHA_2: "Optimize JavaScript bundles for dashboard"
...
```
then translated by ChatGPT:
"We've redesigned the dashboard experience for a better user-interface and have also optimized our dashboard-load times"
No we've removed the PM/PMMs from the loop with an AI :)
Looking forward to more releases!
@jeff_kao thanks Jeff! Yeah we are also super excited (and pleasantly surprised) that the technology is finally there! For a while, we were worried that "AI" would result in more overhead/work for folks to have to correct weird outputs. But it's actually quite good and, for the most part, assuming somewhat decent context in your tickets to begin with, it does a great job getting you started!
It's amazing to see all the progress Makelog has made. Gonna start using Makelog to write release notes every week!
This is one of the most exciting products I've seen to date. Makelog is a must have for every software company period.
@carley_lake thank you so much Carley! We agree! We've talked to soooo many PMs who've told us they wish product updates were less of a pain to do well.
Makelog has made managing engineering changelogs and updates a breeze. It offers a user-friendly interface for creating and tracking updates and a streamlined process for publishing changelogs.
The product also integrates seamlessly with our existing tools like Linear, making it easy to incorporate into our workflow.
@ankit_pansari1 wow thank you for the kind words! We're so glad you find the product useful, and can't wait to see how our GPT-3 integration might improve your workflow further!
