Every figure read on 23 August 2026 from that vendor's own pricing page, at the cheapest published billing: frill.co/pricing, userjot.com, featurebase.app/pricing and canny.io/pricing, with Fider read from its repository. Nolt itself is $39 a month billed monthly or $29 billed yearly for one board, and $89 or $69 for five, read in a browser because that page answers a plain fetch with a bot-block.
Going through the options
UserJot, $29 a month
The obvious swap. The same money buys five boards instead of one, priced per workspace with unlimited end users, and a free tier with two boards exists so you can try it properly. AI duplicate detection and AI changelog drafting on top.
Canny, $79 a month billed yearly
Unlimited boards on every plan, including the free one, which is as far from Nolt's single board as this category goes. Priced by tracked user instead, so it starts higher and grows with use. Their free plan gives you unlimited boards and private boards inside a 25 tracked user cap.
Featurebase, $29 per seat a month
Five boards at the entry tier and a free plan with one. Much broader than Nolt: a helpdesk, help centre and surveys as well. Watch two things, that it is priced per seat rather than flat, and that removing the branding is a $69 a month add-on.
Frill, $22 a month billed yearly
Cheaper than Nolt and with surveys built in, which Nolt has no equivalent of. No published board count anywhere on their pricing page, so if multiple boards is your reason for leaving, ask them before you switch. Fifty active ideas at the entry tier.
Fider, free
AGPL-3.0, actively maintained, and unlimited in every direction because there is no vendor to meter you. Docker, PostgreSQL, your own mail sender, roughly $6 to $12 a month of hosting. No changelog feature at all, and you own the security patching: three releases in three months to July 2026, one fixing a critical authentication flaw.
Docket, $99 once
Ours. Unlimited products on every tier including free, which is the direct answer to Nolt's single board. Your own domain, no seats, no meter, and a free edition that never expires where Nolt has only a ten-day trial. Feedback lands as Markdown in your own repository. You run it, and it assumes a coding agent.

Which Nolt alternative should you choose?
Three questions, and they settle almost every case.
- How many products do you ship? This is why you are here. Nolt is $348 a year for one and $828 for five. UserJot is $348 for five. Canny, Fider and Docket do not count them at all.
- Do you need to try before you pay? Nolt gives you ten days. Canny, Featurebase, UserJot, Fider and Docket all have a free tier you can sit on indefinitely.
- What do you lose by leaving? Nolt's 22 interface languages, and its two-way integrations with Jira, Linear and Asana. If either matters to your customers, weigh it properly.
