At Orbivon, our mission has always been simple: to create the most intuitive, powerful, and enjoyable document writing platform possible. But we know that the best products aren't built in a vacuum. They are forged through a constant dialogue with the people who use them every single day-you.

Your workflow, your challenges, and your brilliant ideas are the most valuable resource we have. You see things we don't, you face unique challenges we haven't considered, and you dream up use cases that push the boundaries of what's possible. That’s why we are officially opening up our channels to make it easier than ever for you to tell us what you want to see next in Orbivon.

This isn't just about collecting feedback; it's about building a partnership. We want to build Orbivon with you.

Why Your Voice is Our North Star

Every feature we've ever built, from the simplest formatting tool to our most complex collaboration systems, started with a problem. Someone, somewhere, said, "I wish I could..." or "It would be so much easier if..."

While our internal team has a roadmap filled with exciting plans, we firmly believe that the most impactful improvements come directly from our community. You are the writers, the project managers, the students, the researchers, and the creators who rely on Orbivon. Your insights are grounded in real-world needs, and that’s what makes them so powerful.

When you share an idea, you're not just sending a message into the void. You are directly influencing our development priorities. Every suggestion is read, cataloged, and discussed by our product and engineering teams. Your feedback helps us understand what truly matters, ensuring we invest our energy into features that will make a meaningful difference in your work.

How to Share Your Ideas and Suggestions

We want to make this process as seamless as possible. To accommodate different types of feedback, we've set up two primary channels for you to share your thoughts.

1. Quick Suggestions & Direct Feedback via Email

Have a quick idea that popped into your head? Notice a small improvement that could make a big difference? Or perhaps you have feedback that you'd prefer to share privately. Email is the perfect channel for this.

It's direct, simple, and goes straight to our team.

How to do it:

Simply send an email to us at: [email protected]

To help us process your request efficiently, please consider using a clear subject line, such as:

• Feature Request: [Your Idea]
• Improvement Suggestion: [Specific Area]
• Feedback on: [Existing Feature]

In the body of the email, tell us a bit about your idea. Don't worry about making it perfect—just explain the problem you're facing and how your suggestion could solve it.

2. Public Discussions & Community-Voted Features on GitHub

For bigger ideas, detailed proposals, or features you believe many other users would love, our GitHub Discussions page is the ideal place. This platform allows for transparent, community-driven conversation.

The benefits of using GitHub Discussions:

• Visibility: Everyone can see the ideas being proposed.
• Collaboration: Other users can comment, add their own perspectives, and build upon your suggestion.
• Upvoting: The community can vote on ideas they find most valuable, giving us a clear signal of what's in high demand.
• Transparency: You can track the conversation and see how an idea evolves over time.

How to join the conversation:

1. Visit our GitHub Discussions page: Orbivon GitHub Discussions.
2. Search first: Before posting, take a moment to see if someone else has already suggested a similar idea. If so, you can upvote it and add your thoughts to the existing thread.
3. Start a new discussion: If your idea is new, click "New discussion" and lay out your proposal with as much detail as you can.

What Makes a Great Suggestion?

To help our team fully understand your vision, here are a few tips for crafting a suggestion that gets noticed:

• Describe the "Why," not just the "What." Instead of just saying, "Add a new export format," explain the problem you're trying to solve. For example: "I need to submit my articles to a publisher that only accepts .docx with specific formatting. An advanced DOCX export option would save me hours of manual reformatting."
• Explain Your Use Case. How would this feature fit into your daily workflow? Walk us through the scenario where this new feature would be a game-changer for you.
• Be as Specific as You Can. Where in the Orbivon interface do you imagine this feature living? What would it look like? Mockups or sketches are not necessary but are always welcome!

Let's Build the Future, Together

Orbivon is more than just a tool; it's a community of thinkers and creators. The future of this platform is in all of our hands. We are incredibly excited to hear your ideas and work alongside you to continue making Orbivon the best place for your documents to come to life.

So please, don't hesitate. Send that email. Start that discussion. Your next great idea could become Orbivon's next great feature.

Thank you for being part of our journey.
