Cycle connects feedback to features. Pathmode compiles friction into execution contracts.
Feedback-to-Product Platform
Connect customer feedback directly to product delivery. Auto-link feedback to features and close the loop.
Intent Engineering Platform
Compile user friction into structured specs for your team and your agents.
| Feature | Pathmode | Cycle |
|---|---|---|
| Core Philosophy | Intent Compiler (Evidence → Spec → Agent) | Feedback Pipeline (Signal → Feature) |
| Evidence Handling | Structured Evidence Board with types | Auto-linked feedback threads |
| Spec Depth | IntentSpec (outcomes, edge cases, constraints) | Feature description + linked feedback |
| Agent Integration | MCP + CLAUDE.md + .cursorrules | Linear/Jira sync |
| Verification | Intent status lifecycle (→ shipped → verified) | Feedback loop notifications |
| Team Constraints | Constitution rules enforced in agent context | None |
Cycle — Connect customer feedback directly to product delivery. Auto-link feedback to features and close the loop.
Limitation: Strong feedback capture and linking, but the 'spec' is still a lightweight feature description. No structured intent layer, no constitution, no agent-native output.
Pathmode — Compile user evidence into structured IntentSpecs, deliver context to AI agents via MCP, and verify real-world impact when features ship.
