https://bucket.co/

Howdy HN!We're a team of 7 that have worked on Bucket for the past 2 years (Seed funded).How are we different than other feature flagging tools?* Purpose-built: Bucket is built for the B2B use case, which makes everything simpler for you.* Companies over users: In B2B, you mostly target customer accounts, not individual users.* Quality and craft: We're sweating the details so you can focus on...

Show HN: Bucket – From feature launch to customer satisfaction, consistently

https://bucket.co/

Hi HN!We have put A LOT of effort and soul into crafting this product. It’s something we’ve wanted to have ourselves for so long. We hope you like it!Many tech companies end up as feature factories. Bucket is here to help product teams consistently evaluate features, so they can double down on the features that matter - and cut their losses on the ones that never hit home.We do this based on...

Ever shipped a feature and didn’t know, if the customers loved it?

Validate features in weeks with Bucket.

Cheers!
Got it, makes sense. Appreciate the concrete example! As for the event tracking data, do you use a tracking plan, like Segment Protocols?
True ;) Sometimes, though, a new feature isn't getting engagement because people are busy. Product and Product marketing can use low engagement metrics to raise awareness.
Good point! Talking to some of the users of the feature you're about to remove is probably a good first step. Do those users use the feature in a way that's aligned with your product strategy?
How do you track that exactly? Any chance you can share a concrete example?

Ask HN: How to you track if newly released features have expected engagement?

When launching new features, how do you track them and how do you measure their "success"?Do you use a tracking plan, like Segment Protocols? How do you determine when the feature is done (doesn't need more iteration)?Disclaimer: I'm the founder of a startup that is focused on feature analytics. It's still early days for us, so here to learn about the existing pains in this space.

Hi, I’m the solo founder of Bucket. I’ve built this tool to easily measure the success of software features. Out of the box, Bucket will tell you how many users are engaging with your feature, and how often (daily, weekly, monthly). That’s it! It’s simple but enough to be actionable.

I’ve needed something like this in previous SaaS companies. For whatever reason, traditional product analytics platforms were never adopted outside of a small group of product managers. Bucket is analytics for the individual features.

I hope that software teams (engineers, designers, product, etc.) will consider using this. Sometimes we need to ship less new features and iterate on existing ones. Maybe even delete some features once in a while! :)

Feedback very welcome!

Fully agree regarding "collaboration". The "money" argument is what I'm arguing against in the post. You can pack more engineers in an open office, but if the software output is low, you're not saving money - you're carelessly wasting resources.
