Patchlog is a drop-in changelog for web apps. You embed one script tag, with no SDK and no npm install, and get an in-app "what's new" widget plus a hosted changelog page and an RSS feed.
The widget renders inside a Shadow DOM, so it never inherits or leaks the host page's CSS, and it behaves the same in React, Vue, Rails or plain HTML.
Other features: scheduled publishing so you can write updates ahead of time and have them post themselves, per-update view and click analytics, light/dark/auto theming with a custom accent colour on Pro, and 2FA on accounts.
Pricing is flat rather than metered on your traffic: free for 1 project and 25 updates, which shows a small "Powered by Patchlog" badge, or $7/month ($60/year) for unlimited projects and updates, badge removal and advanced analytics. Most tools in this category bill per monthly active user, so the bill grows with your app even though writing release notes does not get harder.
What Patchlog does not do: no user segmentation or targeting, no NPS surveys, no roadmaps or feature voting boards, no email digests, and no public API. If you need those, Beamer or Canny is the better fit.
Standard Ebooks PatchlogPatchlog's answer:
A real free plan with no trial expiry, and a widget that embeds in any web app with two lines of JavaScript. No bloated feature set, no enterprise pricing for a tool that should be simple.
Patchlog's answer:
Most changelog tools charge $29-$60/month for features most small teams never use. Patchlog gives you a working in-app widget, a public SEO-friendly changelog page, full Markdown support, and RSS on the free plan. The Pro plan is $5/month. It covers everything 90% of SaaS products actually need.
Patchlog's answer:
Indie founders, solo developers, and small SaaS teams who want to keep users informed about product updates without paying enterprise prices for it.
Patchlog's answer:
Built out of frustration with the existing options. Every changelog tool was either too expensive, too complex, or offered a "free trial" that expired before you could evaluate it properly. Patchlog started as the tool we wished existed: simple to embed, honest free tier, no fluff.
Patchlog's answer:
Laravel, Vue 3, Inertia.js, Tailwind CSS, MySQL.
Patchlog's answer:
Patchlog is early-stage and does not publicly disclose customer names at this time.

i've been building this over the last two weeks, it first started as a reader for standard ebooks (https://standardebooks.org/), with clean typography, progress tracking, and nice deep linking (try clicking on a paragraph to create a mark and copy it to your clipboard) but I think I really unlocked something when I discovered the amazing recordings on https://librivox.org, I've been spending the last few days... - Source: Hacker News / 7 days ago
Shoutout to https://standardebooks.org/, amazingly formatted classics. - Source: Hacker News / about 2 months ago
As others here have mentioned, https://standardebooks.org/ is excellent and my understanding is that they use Gutenberg books as a source for theirs but done up much nicer. - Source: Hacker News / 3 months ago
I've used https://standardebooks.org/ to pull nicely formatted Project Gutenberg books on any e-reader that supports a browser (in my case, Boox). Technically, I can also just directly pull the epub from Project Gutenberg, but sometimes the formatting leaves a lot to be desired. Once you get an e-reader that runs a semi-capable OS (ex - stock android, even an older version), it's hard to go back to something like... - Source: Hacker News / 3 months ago
I finally, after a couple of years off, picked up work on a Standard Ebooks[1] edition of The Book of the Thousand Nights and a Night. I made a new yearsโ promise to myself to get it as done as possible by the end of the year. If it doesnโt happen Iโm not going to be too hard on myself though, given the 5K endnotes and 1.5M overall word count. But weโll see!

This is exactly how I built the changelog widget for Patchlog. It is a drop-in "what's new" widget for SaaS products: one script tag, rendered inside a Shadow DOM so it never collides with the host site's CSS, with light, dark, and auto theming that reads the host's CSS variables when you want it to. There is a free tier if you want to see the technique in a shipped product rather than a blog snippet. - Source: dev.to / 23 days ago
I build Patchlog, so the snippet above is my own tool. I'm not going to pretend otherwise. It's early: the free tier is one project and 25 updates, which is genuinely what I run on my own projects. I'm sharing the approach because it's helped me, and if it saves you the afternoon it cost me to think through, great. - Source: dev.to / 24 days ago
