# How to Write a Great Feature Request

_By OutSmart · Jan 19, 2026_

### Tips for a Top-Tier Request

To help our product team understand your needs, please follow these guidelines when submitting an idea:

-   **Focus on the Problem, Not the Solution:** Instead of saying "Add a blue button here," tell us what you are trying to achieve. There might be an even better way to solve it that we haven't considered!
    
-   **One Idea per Post:** If you have three ideas, please make three separate posts. This allows other users to vote on them individually.
    
-   **Search Before Posting:** Your idea might already be in the system! If it is, add a "Vote" and a comment with your specific use case.
    

### Use the "User Story" Template

Copy and paste this into your request description:

> **As a:** \[What is your role? e.g., Manager, Admin, Creative\] **I want to:** \[What action do you want to take?\] **So that:** \[What is the benefit or value you get from this?\]
