Kaleido helps product teams by providing a second brain that can: ▽ Collect and organize ideas, insights, and feedback ▽ Determine what's most important ▽ Make informed product decisions ▽ Set transparent product tasks All powered by AI, of course.
Hello product makers and enthusiasts💃
This is Kate, Ilia, and Pasha.
It's our pleasure to launch Kaleido today! Thanks Ben Lang for hunting us!
Let me tell you a story about why and how Kaleido came about. Our CEO, Ilia, worked at many startups as a product designer and faced the same key challenge each time: how to mix the team's ideas and user insights to make the right product decisions.
Of course, he tried different services. Canny, Uservoice, and Maze help to collect feedback, but it's not enough. Productboard, Aha!, and Cycle focus on building roadmaps, but no one covers the connection between what users do and what they say. You have to use your hands and eyes to collect this information from different sources.
As a result, Ilia's team assembled a Frankenstein from different services. It solved the problem, but it was not very convenient to use. So we thought: why not make a whole product to solve this problem? To be able to transform user pain points more accurately and easily into product decisions that matter.
So we gathered together to do what we lacked at our previous places of work - Kaleido.
Although Kaleido is in open beta, you can already:
📝 Record information about your users. Manually record your insights, set up an integration with Slack, or connect an integration from your feedback repository. You'll have all your users' ideas and thoughts in one place. And enrich that information with any characteristics of your users.
🔦 Find patterns and combine individual thoughts into larger projects. You can convert 100 feedbacks into 10 projects, and AI will help you do this smarter and faster.
🧮 Compare projects with each other. For example, you can see that one project has a lot more money closed, but another affects more people. And the third has significant seasonality. And based on this comparison, you can make product decisions.
💬 Set tasks for teams so that they understand the roots of problems. They can read the words behind your insights and be more empathetic to your users.
In short, we're making this kind of powerful tool. But the only thing you have to worry about is to look for patterns and compare projects to each other. That's when the magic happens! Here is a short demo for those who want to try using Kaleido https://youtu.be/I1_76D4QrUs. Especially since the free plan includes enough functionality to help you appreciate the value of Kaleido for your product!
Congrats on the launch! Seems like a great opportunity for product managers to make better decisions.
Congrats, Kate, Ilia, and Pavel on launching Kaleido!
I've had the privilege of working with Ilia in the past, and I can confidently say that I've always admired Ilia's passion for pushing the boundaries and creating groundbreaking solutions, and Kaleido is no exception.
As a person who's struggled with organizing and analyzing feedback, Kaleido feels like a breath of fresh air!
I've been wondering, who do you see as your main competitor? Is it endless Google Sheets, or whole teams working manually on tasks that Kaleido can effortlessly handle? Or what.
Congratulations on the launch of Kaleido! As someone who has worked in product development, I can definitely relate to the challenges of gathering and analyzing user feedback to make informed decisions. It's exciting to see a platform that aims to streamline this process and provide a more comprehensive solution. The ability to record and organize user insights, and then use AI to identify patterns and compare projects, is a game-changer for any product team. The demo video is really helpful in showing the platform in action, and the fact that there is a free plan available to try it out is a great way to showcase its value. I look forward to seeing Kaleido grow and evolve in the future. Well done!
Kaleido captures something that is really hard to do with other tools: the multi-layer nature of the product prioritization and the relationships between levels.
It really clicked for me when I was able to add an insight, then link it to a project, then link that project to the next level project and so on.
The product development roadmap is often nonlinear, with a lot of work happening in parallel, large projects coming into life while small features are launched. Being able to see through that chaos and always link back to the real user insight is powerful.
The one thing that makes Kaleido a bit lonely right now is that there are no sources linked directly to the end users, like feedback forms, feature requests widgets, etc. I want to plug it right into our app and let users submit their unstructured ideas and requests!
Congrats! On the launch. I tried the product out, If I set it right, I think it would make a huge difference in how we prioritize. Are there any plans to add integration of other data streams?
Congratulations on launching Kaleido, Kate, Ilia, and Pasha! 🎉
I truly appreciate the effort you've put into creating a seamless solution for connecting user insights with product development. Your focus on transforming user pain points into meaningful product decisions is precisely what the industry needs. I'm excited to see how Kaleido will revolutionize the way product makers approach user feedback and project prioritization. The AI-assisted pattern recognition sounds like a game-changer, and I can't wait to see it in action. Keep up the great work, and I'm looking forward to seeing Kaleido grow! 👏
What a useful product! Congrats on the launch, guys. I can imagine you’ve put in a lot of hard work and dedication to get Kaleido live. Wishing you all the best as the product continues to grow and succeed.
@kate_bovkunova congrats on the launch, nice job. Kaleido looks really fascinating, definitely will give it a shot
Congratulations, guys! This is a great idea. I will be delighted to follow the progress of the product. Good luck 🙏
Congratulations on launching an amazing product 🚀
I've tried many user feedback tools, but each one required me to constantly shift my attention to another tool. Kaleido looks like a functional platform that integrates many useful features. Particularly valuable to me is the feedback analysis feature for qualitative data interpretation, which reduces the percentage of incorrect product decisions. I appreciate the effort you put into creating a seamless and intuitive product with a clean design and easy-to-use interface.
Overall, I am impressed with Kaleido, and I can't wait to see how you develop it in the future. Thank you for creating such a valuable tool to collect and analyze user feedback.
Best of luck to your team 🙌
Congrats on the launch team! Love the design, colors, and style. I've been looking for a tool like this for our team at Spiti. I've been trying to achieve this with Airtable, but its not the best tool when the problem is not at scale.
