I was tired of bloated changelog tools, so I built BearLog

Most changelog tools I tried had one of three problems:

• too expensive for solo developer or small teams


• abandoned or barely maintained


• trying to be everything

I didn’t want a CRM, a feedback suite, and a roadmap app glued together.


I just wanted one thing: a clean way to tell users what changed.

So I built BearLog.

I built BearLog around a few non-negotiables:

1) Free should actually be useful

Not a 14-day timer. Not “free up to 3 posts.”


If you’re small, you should still have a solid setup.

2) You should own your email channel

For notifications, BearLog is BYO Resend.


Your domain, your sender reputation, your account.

3) No lock-in

Export your posts to JSON whenever you want.

4) Keep it focused

BearLog is for changelogs.


Not a giant “engagement platform.”

Quick embed example

This is the idea: drop one script into your app and you get a changelog widget.

<script

  src="https://www.bearlog.app/widget.js"

  data-project="YOUR-PROJECT-ID"

  data-mode="floating"

  data-position="bottom-right"

  data-color="#052ba8"

  data-text="What's New"

  defer

></script>
