About Canny
Canny is evolving from a feature-request board into an AI feedback-operations platform.
Canny's recent work centers on Ideas and its Autopilot AI: a Core-plan rollout of Ideas as the centralized feedback hub, on-demand auto-grouping, automatic linking of feedback to open Salesforce and HubSpot opportunities, and Slack notifications that close the loop with account owners. The MCP server has grown past 55 tools, and ideas views gained relative date filtering and export.
