ReleasePad installs statistics

Every update you don't communicate is a feature your users never find.

Your team ships bug fixes, new features. But if users don't hear about them, they might as well not exist. Features go undiscovered. Support tickets pile up for problems already fixed.

ReleasePad connects to your GitHub repo and uses AI to turn every change into clear, human-friendly release notes.

You ship code, ReleasePad tells the story.

Publish everywhere at once: a hosted changelog page and an in-app widget.

Capabilities

• Auto-generate release notes from GitHub commits using AI • Publish changelogs to a hosted page and an in-app widget • Handle messy commit histories — no strict formats required • Review, edit, and tweak generated notes before publishing

Benefits

• Save time: Stop writing release notes by hand. Push code, get changelogs automatically. • Keep users informed: Every fix, feature, and improvement reaches your users across all channels at once. • Reduce support tickets: Users stop reporting bugs you already fixed when they can see what shipped. • Zero process overhead: No templates, no conventions to adopt. Works with your existing workflow.
