Onset vs Changelogfy

Changelogfy bundles a changelog, feedback boards, a roadmap and surveys, and charges per project starting at $59 a month. Onset does the changelog part, has a free plan, and starts at $30 when you outgrow it.

No free plan, and it starts at $59

Changelogfy offers a 14-day trial and then bills from $59 a month per project. Onset has a free plan that stays free, with unlimited releases, a custom domain, the widget, the REST API and 1,000 email subscribers.

Both bill per project — ours is a third of the price

Their pricing page says plans are charged per project, which is the same unit as an Onset workspace. Running one changelog is $59 against $30, and their top plan is $299 against our $60.

You are paying for the feedback suite

Changelogfy includes feedback boards, a roadmap and in-app surveys that Onset does not have. If your team wants all of that in one tool the price makes more sense. If you want a changelog, most of what you are buying goes unused.

How this is calculated

These figures are for one changelog site. Changelogfy states that plans are charged per project and that an account can hold any number of projects, which makes their project the same unit as an Onset workspace.

Changelogfy does not meter subscribers, so the subscriber slider only moves the Onset side of this comparison.

Their pricing page contradicts itself on two points. The plan cards list 3 and 5 team members with $20 for each extra, while the comparison table below says team members are unlimited on every plan. The cards also put changelog email notifications on Pro, while the table shows unlimited emails on all three. The calculator takes the reading that is cheaper for Changelogfy in both cases — unlimited seats and email on every plan — so their column here is a floor, not a ceiling.

Prices shown are monthly list. Changelogfy takes about 17% off for annual billing, which works out at $49, $99 and $249.

Both columns show list prices billed monthly. Changelogfy pricing last checked August 12, 2026.

Questions & answers

Can't find the answer here? Contact our support team.

Does Changelogfy have a free plan?

No. They offer a 14-day trial, after which the cheapest plan is $59 a month per project. Onset has a free plan that stays free, including a custom domain, the widget, the REST API and 1,000 email subscribers.

Should I pick Changelogfy instead?

If you want feedback boards, a public roadmap and in-app NPS surveys in the same tool as your changelog, yes — Changelogfy has those and Onset does not. Onset is the better value if the changelog is the part you actually need.

Can I move my existing changelog over?

Email support@onset.io with a link to your Changelogfy page and we will bring your published posts, dates and labels across for you.

Is this pricing current?

Changelogfy figures come from their public pricing page and are re-checked periodically. Their page is inconsistent about seats and email allowances, so confirm on their site before you decide.
