Hey Product Hunt, Mehdi here, founder @ Cycle 👋 Two years after our first Product Hunt launch (and 3249 sidebar re-designs later 😅), I'm super excited to announce Cycle 3.0. The Product Hunt community is a big reason why we were able to thrive so HUGE thank you 💙 "I love manually processing user feedback"- said no product folk ever 😂 Building products is literally the greatest thing ever, but then you get your first users and you're stuck having to deal with… user feedback. And it's a huge stress point, because you want to spend hours on every piece of actionable feedback and really connect with your customers, but the more time you do that, the less time you have building the damn thing. Understanding feedback is critical to build great products. Not only it helps figure out what to ship but it’s also the best way to develop product sense and build loyalty with users. Yet feedback tends to be scattered in many different places and product teams don’t have time to deal with this mess. Enter Cycle. The fastest way to capture feedback and share customer insights - without the busywork. For many product folks out there, manually processing feedback used to take several hours every week. Now it's all on autopilot with Cycle. Cycle lets you set up your automations for each feedback source (Zoom, Meet, Slack, HubSpot, Intercom, Zapier, etc), and voilà - AI takes care of the rest. It's an autopilot, not a copilot. Yes, an autopilot: AI performing tasks and generating insights - all by itself. Sounds great in theory, but in practice won't autopilots just generate tons of useless things? And if so, won't users simply switch it off? That's a valid fear. But there's a solution (beyond increasing the relevance of whatever your autopilot generates). It's called: "AI-generated, user-verified". It boils down to three principles: 1. What's generated on autopilot should have an "AI-generated" tag 2. It should be possible for users to (bulk) verify or discard AI-generated things with one click 3. It should be easy to filter any view by the AI tag - you want to see all data? only user-generated data? only AI-generated, user-verified data? With these principles, autopilots can do magic ✨ Ok, enough rambling. Start your free trial today: https://www.cycle.app/ Let us know you found us on Product Hunt and we’ll give you two free add-ons ✌️ If you have any feedback, please share it with us so we can close the loop with you at each release 🤗 AMA! I'm around 🙌

The autopilot is one of these features where no details were left behind. I feel in every customer onboarding that this is what people were waiting for, especially with the rise of AI. Great job on this and let's nail this launch 💪
Mehdi Boudoukhane
@thibautnyssens thanks for the kind words! 💙 Extracting insights from feedback used to take hours every week. Now AI can do it for you, automatically.

@mboudoukhane We've been shipping weirdly fast haha Great to see the what the team accomplished in such a short amount of time. This is only the beginning! 🔥
Mehdi Boudoukhane

@mboudoukhane Congrats ! Game changer feature ! Can't wait to try it.
Calum Webb
Been a big fan of Cycle since beginning to use it at Lazy. It's a real gamechanger for capturing feedback and contextualising it in such a way that it can make a real difference to product for the better. Very excited to check out the new AI features, should make capturing feedback even faster. Especially appreciate the extra detail to make it clear what insights are AI-generated 🙌
Mehdi Boudoukhane
@calum thanks so much, you're one of our favorite power users. You help us make the product better every day, we're grateful for the partnership with Lazy! 🚲⚡️
Julien Baudic
@calum thanks so much for the support from day one ! 🔥
Samuel Sonning
Love the concept of Cycle! Considering setting it up for our startup. Is Discord integration coming? The slack functionality looks really interesting but our user community is on Discord.
James de Wasseige
@samuel_sonning thanks for the kind words! Yes Discord is coming up!
Mehdi Boudoukhane
@samuel_sonning Discord integration coming in a few months! But there are workarounds already with Zapier, our Chrome extension, as well as our API. There are many teams on Discord who also use Cycle!
Jeffrey Delronge
Super pumped about this launch! 🎉 In just a year since I joined, we've been shipping like crazy. Being customer-centric is in our DNA, and it's what sets us apart. But with AI at the heart of Cycle's engine now, it's a whole new ball game. We haven't just added a few AI features; we've completely transformed how teams handle feedback. This means product folks can focus on the big picture, getting closer to users, and making more impactful decisions. We're reshaping the way products are made, step by step. 💯 behind the vision - let's revolutionize the way teams build customer-centric tools.
Mehdi Boudoukhane
@jeffreydelronge It's been a hell of a journey! 💥 Agreed with you, it's a whole new paradigm

Feedback is essential to any company growth but still, most of them drawn into a multiplication of tools. Cycle, on autopilot, is the best way to truly connect with your users!

Bringing full teams - not just product folks - closer to customers is critical for best-in-class products/services. Cycle is the only app enabling that vision.
Mehdi Boudoukhane
@bernyhaz well said, 100% aligned with you! collaboration between product folks and customers must be fixed!

Ed Sim
💪🏼 The simplest use cases of AI are often the most powerful! This is not just a feature but part of a more powerful system and workflow to build + ship products faster!
Mehdi Boudoukhane
@edsim 💯 simplicity is key here ; the AI is not the system itself, it's an enabler (but a powerful one)
Thomas Groutars
This is an insane improvement to my favorite product 🤩 Congrats @mboudoukhane and team!
