"Great Product Experience Platform!"
As a launch manager, I used Shorter Loop to manage all product launch activities of my departments and other departments such as engineering, sales, marketing, software development, and customer support teams globally in ONE tool. The tool interface is easy to understand and doesn’t require any training. You can either start creating your product launch plan from scratch or bring it from Jira or add it from the product backlog, also bring it from the feedback management module within the tool (Manager and it helps you to prioritize features by using AI-driven analytics, segregating under meaningful themes and make your job very easy to manage all key feedback and split those most important, good but lesser important and nice to have feedback in the product roadmap module. The beauty is you can see your product launch plan and other team’s progress and add/edit/delete/complete as you need.
"Shorter Loop: A Must-Have for Marketers Looking to Boost Efficiency"
Shorter Loop simplifies our entire marketing process. From idea generation to analytics, it covers it all. The Idea Manager and persona mapping features of this tool are fantastic. It saved us almost 20% of our time by collecting feedback, analyzing feedback, and deriving insights powered by Generative AI based on the best market research study we conducted for persona validation, and the GTM strategy success rate increased by 3x. Shorter Loop made us more agile and responsive. We always use Shorter loop.

"An easy to use all in one-product management platform"
Prodeasy | Shorter Loop makes my job easy from the ideation stage to product launch (we have so many ideas on how the product needs to be built, but getting the validation through market feedback, user research gives us confidence the product has a need and which ideas will be the right ones to address the need of my target audience/persona). Not just that its AI-enabled platform helped me to create the product vision, and persona canvas based on my target audience, ran experiments from the tool based on hypotheses designed primarily from the persona’s needs, challenges, goals, and aspirations, and based on experiment helped me to create value proposition which is further tied to my business model linking revenue goals, outreach goals to persona, cost structure, customer relationship and more.
Product vision, collab (whiteboard for brainstorming), Business model, persona canvas, and value proposition are magical features of the tool.

Sample Reviews:
"An affordable tool for product managers with room for maturation"
It is a cost-effective solution without compromising on essential features. The platform's prioritization capabilities are great to use. Connecting your features with broader product/org-level goals helps a lot to track progress on your KPIs/KRAs. The support team's approach is proactive and issue resolution is swift.
It is still a phase of rapid development and refinement. As a result, some functionalities might still be maturing, leading to occasional issues or limitations that do affect work, but the support and development team is quick to resolve those. Also, while functionality is key, a more polished UI would contribute to a more satisfying overall experience.”
