Battlecard

pmkit vs Productboard

Productboard is a PM platform. pmkit is an AI agent that runs workflows, synthesizes evidence, and proposes artifacts. It works with your existing tools.

AI Agent vs Platform

Wins
  • pmkit runs workflows automatically, no manual data entry
  • Daily briefs, VoC clustering, PRDs generated on schedule
  • AI synthesizes across tools you already use
Risks
  • Productboard is a full PM platform with roadmaps, portals, and more
  • Established market presence and ecosystem
Counterpunch

Productboard requires you to centralize data in their platform. pmkit works with your existing tools (Jira, Slack, Gong) and synthesizes automatically.

Draft-Only Governance

Wins
  • All outputs are proposals for human review
  • Full audit trail of every AI decision
  • RBAC controls who can approve artifacts
Risks
  • Productboard offers direct editing and publishing
  • Faster for teams that trust their process
Counterpunch

When AI is generating content, you want a review step. pmkit's draft-only pattern means no surprises in your Jira board or Confluence space.

Pricing Model

Wins
  • Usage-based pricing aligned with value delivered
  • No per-seat costs that scale with team size
  • Pay for jobs run, not users added
Risks
  • Productboard pricing is predictable per-seat
  • Established procurement patterns
Counterpunch

Per-seat pricing punishes collaboration. pmkit charges for workflows run. Add your whole team without multiplying costs.

The Bottom Line

Use Productboard if you want a centralized PM platform with roadmaps, customer portals, and feature voting.

Use pmkit if you want AI to run PM workflows automatically, working with the tools you already have, with governance built in.

They can complement each other: use Productboard for roadmap visualization, pmkit for automated synthesis and artifact generation.
