StateBoard
Status reporting for visual products. Show, don't tell.
StateBoard turns screenshots of your webapp into a living status board. You mark regions on the screens, tag each one as shipped, mock, or missing, and share one read-only link your stakeholders can read in 30 seconds.
These docs explain how to use it.
Why this exists
Every product team building a visual webapp eventually hits the same wall: the more carefully you write user-value stories, the worse they perform as status updates for non-technical leadership.
"What's actually working right now? What's still mock data? What hasn't been built yet?" — Every executive, in every quarterly review, ever
Roadmap tools answer "when will it ship." Demo tools answer "how does it work." Neither answers "what state is it in right now, screen by screen." StateBoard is the missing artifact.

FAQ
Answers to the questions that come up most.
The current scope (v0)
This is v0 — the wedge. The build plan in the founder pitch has four staged releases; v0 ships the smallest thing that proves the thesis:
- Manual screenshot upload
- Region tagging on the image
- Three states:
shipped/mock/missing - Read-only public share link
- Single user, no auth
What's not here yet (and why) lives in the FAQ.
