What is Prodpad?
ProdPad AI (CoPilot PM) is an AI-powered product management platform designed to help product managers work faster and smarter by automating grunt work and providing intelligent assistance. It combines generative AI with product management best practices to write idea descriptions, generate user stories, summarize customer feedback, create roadmap initiatives, and set measurable key results—all tailored specifically to product management rather than generic AI.
The tool features an AI Product Coach that provides on-the-spot coaching, refines product vision, aligns ideas to strategy, and offers constructive feedback informed by your actual product data. It includes powerful similarity matching to stop duplicate ideas, automatically link feedback to relevant ideas, and suggest tags. The roadmap generation feature helps craft roadmaps in moments with AI suggestions for initiatives aligned to product vision and objectives.
ProdPad AI is built for product managers, product leaders, and product ops teams who need to connect strategy to execution. It works with live ProdPad data including roadmaps, ideas, OKRs, and feedback, making it an extension of your brain rather than a generic chatbot.

Frequently asked questions about Prodpad
What technology is under CoPilot PM's hood?
CoPilot PM is built on OpenAI's API, combined with ProdPad's own product management data model, domain knowledge, and execution layer. What makes it different is how it's orchestrated—it's deeply integrated with ProdPad and has structured access to live product data including roadmaps, ideas, feedback, OKRs, and decision history. This context is retrieved at the time of each request to ground responses in actual product work. System instructions, retrieval mechanisms, and safeguards reduce hallucinations and ensure outputs reflect real product context.
Will my data be shared and used to feed a broader AI model?
No. Your data stays private to your ProdPad account. Each CoPilot PM instance is logically separated, and your data is not shared across customers or used to train broader AI models. CoPilot PM allows you to work with your product data without that data ever leaving your controlled environment.
Which ProdPad pricing plans include CoPilot PM?
CoPilot PM is available to all ProdPad customers regardless of plans or levels. Any ProdPad customer can take advantage of the best AI for Product Managers without paying a penny more.
Why use CoPilot PM instead of ChatGPT, Claude, or another AI tool?
General AI tools don't know your product, your decisions, or how your team works. CoPilot PM does. It's built specifically for product management and works directly inside ProdPad with access to live product data and product management context. You don't need to explain background, paste documents, or recreate context every time. Instead of starting from a blank prompt, you're working with an assistant that already understands your roadmap, backlog, feedback, and objectives.
Can I still use ProdPad even if I don't want to use CoPilot PM?
Yes. CoPilot PM is entirely optional and can be switched off in your account settings. ProdPad continues to work as a full-featured product management platform including the roadmap tool, idea management system, and customer feedback management tool—all designed to boost productivity and keep you working within best practice. CoPilot PM simply adds an extra layer of support for teams who want to move faster with less manual work.
Can CoPilot PM make changes automatically?
CoPilot PM only takes actions you explicitly approve. It can suggest, draft, and prepare work, but you stay in control of what gets created or updated in ProdPad. Nothing is published, updated, or shared without a human confirming it.
How accurate is CoPilot PM?
CoPilot PM is designed to be context-aware rather than speculative. It works with live ProdPad data and product management structures, which helps ground responses in real information instead of assumptions. That said, CoPilot PM is intended to support decision-making, not replace it. Like any product tool, its outputs should be reviewed and applied with judgment.
Are reviewers free?
Yes, absolutely. You can invite as many reviewers to your ProdPad account as you need, completely free. Reviewers can add and edit their own ideas and feedback, but can only view and comment on those added by others.
How long is the trial?
You get ProdPad for at least 7 days, but you can actually earn a total of more than 30 days free. The magically extending free trial rewards you with more time for completing new tasks in ProdPad. If you love it, you can either upgrade during your trial or wait until the end.
Do I have to give you my credit card to try it out?
Nope. Just sign up with your email address and you immediately get to access every feature on ProdPad.
