Awesome. I'm looking forward to trying this out. As a PM, I currently use Simplenote to jot down quick requests, or file it in JIRA if time allows. Eager to see if this turns me into a superhero. Also, it's common to perceive that when these small requests fall through the cracks, its due to poor or lack of process or simply a bad PM! But I would argue that, just like processes breakdown with scaling companies, the same happens with PM's, just on a project level. Cognitive overload is real. |

As a side note, a JIRA board full of random feature requests in my experience will generally become a patchwork graveyard of backlog feature requests with little to no coherent relationship or roadmap between them.
In my experience, when this occurs, it is then recognized that maintaining a roadmap and list of feature requests works better in a wiki or similar documentation-oriented space through which one can categorize and cross link the feature requests as needed, as well as keep track of information such as how often it has been requested, etc.
This allows for a clean separation between actual planned work that needs to get done and prospective planned work that may never get done, but we want to think about in the context of the rest of the work we may put in the system.
