What we're building next
Our roadmap is decided largely by the businesses using RosterElf. Customers post requests on our feature board, vote on each other's, and we build from that. This page is the shortlist — what is being considered, what is being built, and what has already shipped.

By product area
The areas customers ask about most. Each one lists every request in that area, delivered and open, alongside the feature it belongs to.
How a request becomes a feature
- 1 You post it Anyone with a RosterElf account can add a request to the board, or vote on one that is already there.
- 2 It gathers votes Other businesses vote and comment. That tells us how widely a problem is felt, not just how loudly.
- 3 We assess it We weigh votes against effort, fit and what it unblocks, then move it to under consideration.
- 4 It gets built Once committed it moves to in development, and you are notified when it ships.
146 requests from this board are now live. The single most-voted request in our history — a notice board and team chat — shipped as our communication features.

Questions about our roadmap
- Add it to our feature board at https://feature-requests.rosterelf.com. Anyone with a RosterElf account can post a request, vote on existing ones and comment. The board is where requests are made and tracked; this page is a curated view of what is furthest along.
- Votes are a major input but not the only one. We weigh how many businesses a change would help, whether it fits where the product is going, and how much other work it unblocks. A request with fewer votes can ship first if it is a smaller change or a compliance requirement.
- Yes, and the evidence is on this site: 146 requests from this board have been delivered. The most-voted request of all — a notice board and team chat, with 382 votes — shipped as RosterElf's communication features.
- The board holds 569 requests. This page shows the 74 that are under consideration or in development, plus the most recently delivered. The full backlog lives on the board, which is the better place to browse and search it.
- They are a snapshot taken on 21 August 2026, not a live feed. For the current count, open any request on the board.
