What's New: document versioning, Open in Cursor, and forever fixing the Slackbot

We're off to a fast start with new features, focused on our most popular features (document writing) and integrations. New stuff listed below, but if you have a feature request, don't forget to tell us by replying to this email!

Let’s jump into this week's updates ⬇️

📝 Document Versioning System

With all the edits to documents, we've gotten feedback you need better version control, so we've rolled out first-class version history for documents with ability to switch between snapshots, track AI vs manual edits, and work from historical states:

  • Every requirement, spec, or meeting note now maintains a full version history, visible to all team members.
  • See exactly what’s changed, when, and by whom, directly within the document sidebar. No more lost updates or confusion over the “latest” version.
  • Auto-save version snapshots at key milestones (first approval, handoff to engineering, release candidate, etc.)
  • Roll back or compare to any previous version in seconds, making audits and compliance checks a breeze for large organizations.

For more info on versioning and writing documents, read the docs.

⚙️ Open in Cursor

We've added an “Open in Cursor” option that generates deeplinks to open PRDs and other docs directly in Cursor IDE with document content as a prompt:

Instantly launch any requirements doc, feature ticket, or PRD directly inside Cursor, and start building your products + features fast.

More info on the Cursor integration are in our docs.

🐛 Slackbot - less buggy!

We continue to refine the ChatPRD slackbot to make her more responsive, more capable, and less buggy! If you haven't tried out Slack integration, you should give it a spin today.

🪐 How I AI

Recently on the podcast, Teresa Torres shows off her personalized productivity system using Claude Code to manage her tasks, automate research collection, and improve her writing:

🪐 Other Updates from the ChatPRD Universe

Lenny released hundreds of transcripts from his podcast, and I bundled them all into an easy to use repo for all your AI projects.

Lots of love for ChatPRD this week!

I have some ideas on how to deal with your Claude-induced anxiety:

IDK, I kind of like "product slop":

Maybe you don't need to meme app:

Become a 10x PM.
For just $15 / month.

We've made ChatPRD affordable so everyone from engineers to founders to Chief Product Officers can benefit from an AI PM.
