Canny entrypoints across nav, app, email, and support
Put the same request path in the main navigation, product UI, lifecycle emails, and support flows so feedback does not depend on the user remembering where to go later.
Why this can grow a startup
A feedback portal only improves product judgment if people can actually reach it when the thought is fresh. Appcues added a request link in the main navigation and throughout the app with pre-filled forms. hapily embedded boards in the app, on the website, in emails, and in support flows. That removes the dead space between noticing friction and logging it. It also trains customers to treat one visible place as the source of truth instead of scattering asks across inboxes, tickets, and side conversations.

When to use it
Use this when Product, Customer Success, Lifecycle is relevant to feedback intake, support deflection, in-app entrypoint and you can run a bounded test with a low budget.
When not to use it
Do not use it as a substitute for customer evidence, a clear owner, or a measurable stop condition. Local platform rules and market behavior still need checking.
How to do it
- Choose one target segment and define the exact next action this tactic should prompt.
- Adapt the tactic to Product and Customer Success, using evidence from Appcues Case Study | Canny as context—not as a promised result.
- Record a baseline for: Users who resolve the issue and complete the next useful action. Set a guardrail that would make you pause the test.
- Run a narrow pilot and choose a test window that fits the normal decision or use cycle; do not scale before you have observed the full cycle.
- Compare the signal with its baseline. Scale only if the intended action improves without crossing the guardrail; otherwise revise one variable or stop and record what you learned.
