Comparison
Sikia vs Nolt
Nolt’s details checked from its public pricing and help pages. Sources
Nolt is a hosted feedback board with voting, a public roadmap, a changelog and an embeddable widget, priced by the number of boards.
Which to choose
Choose Nolt if
- You need SAML 2.0, OpenID Connect or SCIM with Okta, OneLogin or Entra ID (Enterprise), or JWT SSO from Essential.
- You want thorough moderation: an approval queue, a profanity filter, bot protection, and AI moderation on Enterprise.
- You need Jira, Linear, Intercom, Zapier or Microsoft Teams, which Nolt includes on Pro.
- You want AI to draft changelog entries from completed posts or GitHub commits.
Choose Sikia if
- You want Slack and Discord messages captured as requests, not just board activity posted to those channels.
- You want AI to spot duplicates and merge them as votes with the user's quote attached.
- You want branding removed from the $19 Starter plan instead of asking about Enterprise.
- You want a source-available tool you can self-host, with a commercial self-host license on the Scale plan.

The main differences
How the price grows
Nolt prices by board count: Essential covers 1 board at $29/mo billed yearly, Pro covers 5 at $69/mo billed yearly, and unlimited boards need Enterprise. Users never change the price. Sikia prices by projects and AI volume: Free covers 1 project, Starter 1 project with more AI at $19/mo, Growth 3 at $29/mo and Scale 10 at $49/mo.
Slack and Discord
Nolt's Slack and Discord integrations, available from Essential, post new board activity to your channels. Creating posts from Slack or Discord messages isn't documented. Sikia listens in the channels you pick, sorts messages and drafts requests for a teammate to approve.
Duplicates and AI
Nolt prevents duplicate suggestions and has a manual merge tool, and it uses AI for changelog drafts and Enterprise moderation. Sikia uses AI on incoming messages: it writes a clean title, translates non-English messages, and suggests merging duplicates as votes with the quote attached.
Identity and branding
Nolt includes JWT SSO from Essential and SAML, OIDC and SCIM on Enterprise; hiding Nolt branding is Enterprise-only, according to a Nolt staff reply. Sikia removes its badge on every paid plan; sign-in through your own app (JWT SSO) comes with Scale, and it doesn't offer SAML or SCIM.
Moving from Nolt to Sikia
Sikia imports from Nolt with your Nolt API key, reading Nolt's JSON export, and brings over requests, voters, comments, statuses and merged posts. Nolt changelog entries don't come across; republish the ones you want to keep. Nobody is emailed, re-running the import only adds what's new, and vote counts that can't be tied to a specific voter are kept as anonymous votes. Imports need the Growth, Scale or Lifetime plan.

Other comparisons
- ComparisonSikia vs CannyPick Canny if you want AI that pulls feedback out of Intercom, Zendesk and sales calls, and Jira, Linear or Salesforce integrations, and your budget can grow with the number of people who give feedback. Pick Sikia if your users talk to you in Slack or Discord and you want those messages captured automatically, free for one project or at a flat price from $19/mo. The biggest difference is how the price grows: Canny Pro is priced by tracked users, Sikia by projects and AI volume.
- ComparisonSikia vs FeaturebasePick Featurebase if you want a helpdesk, an AI support agent, a help center and feedback boards in one subscription, priced per teammate seat. Pick Sikia if you only need feedback, a roadmap and a changelog, want Slack and Discord messages captured without anyone sending them over, and want a flat price with unlimited teammates. The biggest difference is scope: Featurebase is a support platform that includes feedback, and Sikia is a feedback tool.
- ComparisonSikia vs UserJotPick UserJot if you want two boards on a free plan, and most of your feedback arrives on the board itself. Pick Sikia if your users talk to you in Slack or Discord and you want those messages captured, deduplicated and drafted as requests automatically. Both have a free plan and flat paid plans, so the biggest difference is capture: UserJot's Slack capture is manual and its Discord integration is documented as notifications, while Sikia listens in the channels you pick.
- ComparisonSikia vs UpvotyPick Upvoty if you want the cheapest paid plan, with a custom domain, user SSO and no vendor branding from $15/mo, plus Jira and Linear status sync. Pick Sikia if your users talk to you in Slack or Discord and you want those messages captured as requests, with the changelog and MCP server on every plan. The biggest difference is where feedback comes from: Upvoty collects it on its portal and widget, while Sikia also pulls it out of your chat channels.
- ComparisonSikia vs FrillPick Frill if you want ideas, a roadmap, announcements and NPS or CSAT surveys in one in-app widget, with importers from Canny, Aha, Upvoty and Fider. Pick Sikia if your users talk to you in Slack or Discord and you want those messages turned into requests, with branding removed on every paid plan. The biggest difference is where feedback comes from: Frill centers on its widget, while Sikia also captures it from your chat channels.
