Product Communication Glossary
Clear, practical definitions for the terms that matter in product communication. No jargon about jargon.
Changelog
A running log of all notable changes made to a product, organized by date or version. The backbone of product transparency.
Release Notes
A document summarizing what changed in a specific version or release. More detailed than a changelog entry, often aimed at technical users.
Product Update
Any communication to users about changes, improvements, or new capabilities in your product. The umbrella term for changelogs, release notes, and announcements.
Feature Announcement
A targeted communication about a specific new feature or capability. Designed to drive adoption, not just inform.
In-App Announcement
A notification shown inside your product (banner, modal, tooltip) to communicate changes at the moment users are most likely to care.
