Show HN: Userdoc – The source of truth for your project requirements (userdoc.fyi)

Hey HN,

My wife and I have ran a software consultancy for 8 years, and we found that after sales and staff - our biggest challenge was capturing requirements, confirming requirements, and having a standard way for everyone to access the source of truth (both clients and staff).

We found important info was being kept solely on a JIRA ticket, and completely disappeared when the ticked moved to "Done".

Requirements were being confirmed in many places. E.g. verbally, in emails, in project management tools, etc. This led to miscommunication and a lack of traceability.

And although I had always believed in working software over comprehensive documentation - I found with larger projects and complex business rules, keeping the functionality in your head was a full-time job.

So we've built Userdoc - a requirements management system to gather, collaborate on, and confirm your software project requirements.

An opinionated requirements management system, leveraging standard agile concepts (user stories, user personas, and user journeys) to build a knowledge base for your software project.

There's a video demo on the website which runs through the core functionality.

Would love to hear your feedback, and more than happy to answer any questions.
