Every primitive you need. Nothing you don’t.
We deleted the ‘collaborative whiteboard’ and the ‘design ops dashboard’ and the ‘AI summarizer.’ What’s left is the four things teams actually use after week one.
Pinned feedback
Comments where they belong
Drop a pin on any element — a button, a section, a single line of microcopy. Reviewers see the exact context, not a cropped screenshot.
- Pixel-accurate pins on any frame, layer, or section
- Markdown, mentions, and inline image attachments
- Pin clusters auto-collapse when frames get crowded
Payment
You will be charged $94.20 today.
The CVV field needs more breathing room — at 320px it's flush with the card number.
Can we use 'Pay $94.20' instead of 'Continue'? Specific copy converts better.
Trust badges feel buried. Are they on the spec for the v4 cut?
Decision threads
Turn discussion into decisions
When a thread reaches a conclusion, mark it as a decision. Layercue surfaces the rationale, the dissent, and the final call — so nobody re-litigates it three sprints later.
- One-click promotion from thread to decision
- Decision history surfaces on every revisit
- Reversal flow when constraints change
Can we use 'Pay $94.20' instead of 'Continue'? Specific copy converts better in our experiments.
Agreed — but the price isn't loaded until we hit the API. Going to look ugly with a skeleton.
Lock to 'Continue' until total is loaded, swap to 'Pay $X' once it is. Verified the pattern with checkout team.
Use ‘Continue’ until total loads, then swap to ‘Pay $X.’ Verified pattern with checkout team.
Auto changelog
A changelog engineers actually read
Every shipped decision flows into a structured changelog. Filter by surface, by week, by team. Subscribe via Slack, RSS, or a native digest email.
- Auto-grouped by surface and release window
- Webhook + Linear sync for engineering handoff
- Public-facing digest mode for stakeholder updates
Reversal flow for decisions
Rubric mode for structured crit
Linear sync v2
Approver workflows
Review modes
The right review for the moment
Async crit, structured rubric, or open-floor. Switch modes per round so a 12-stakeholder review doesn't feel like a 12-stakeholder review.
- Async crit with timed reveal of comments
- Rubric mode with weighted scoring
- Approver workflow for compliance-flagged work
