Question 1

How is blocFeed different from BugHerd?

Accepted Answer

BugHerd uses a browser extension and pin-based feedback on page elements. blocFeed installs as a lightweight NPM package directly in your app — no browser extension needed. blocFeed also adds AI categorization, automatic priority scoring, issue clustering, and theme detection that BugHerd doesn't offer.

Question 2

Does BugHerd require a browser extension?

Accepted Answer

Yes, BugHerd relies on a browser extension for its feedback widget. blocFeed installs via NPM directly into your codebase, meaning your users don't need to install anything — the widget is part of your app.

Question 3

Why is blocFeed free when BugHerd charges $42+/mo?

Accepted Answer

We believe bug reporting should be table stakes, not a premium subscription. blocFeed is free forever with all features included — unlimited projects, reports, team members, and integrations.

Question 4

Is blocFeed really free?

Accepted Answer

Yes. While BugHerd starts at $42/mo, blocFeed is completely free with no usage limits. Every feature — AI triage, integrations, analytics, unlimited projects and team members — is included at $0.

Question 5

How long does it take to set up blocFeed?

Accepted Answer

Under 2 minutes. Install the NPM package, add one React component to your app layout, and your users can start reporting bugs immediately. Unlike BugHerd, there's no browser extension to install or configure.

Question 6

Does blocFeed work with my tech stack?

Accepted Answer

blocFeed is built for React-based web apps — Next.js, Remix, Vite, CRA, and more. It ships as a lightweight NPM package (~8KB) that lives inside your codebase, not as a browser extension like BugHerd.

Question 7

Can I migrate from BugHerd to blocFeed?

Accepted Answer

Yes. Run both tools side by side during transition. blocFeed collects feedback through element-level click targeting (no browser extension), so there's no data migration needed. Install blocFeed and start getting AI-categorized reports right away.
