The LaunchNotes embed brings your product updates directly into your website or app, meeting customers where they already are instead of requiring them to visit a separate page. This keeps users informed about new features, improvements, and what's coming next without ever leaving your product.
We have two different types of embed: our latest v1 version and our legacy v2 version. This guide will help you understand the difference between them.

Which version should you use?
v2 (recommended) gives you a complete product communication hub—announcements, roadmap, ideas, and feedback collection all in one embed. Installation is straightforward with a simple code snippet you can paste directly into your app. Choose this for new implementations or if you want the full LaunchNotes experience.
v1 focuses on announcements only. Choose this if you're already using it and only need to display announcements, or if you need category segmentation right now.
