Roadmap

Drumee's roadmap is driven by one principle: sovereignty first, usability second, extensibility third. We ship when it works, not when it looks good on a slide.

Near-Term (Next 30 Days)​

Data Portability: SaaS → Self-Hosted​

The migration path from Drumee SaaS to your own self-hosted instance. This is the key to the two-stage GTM strategy: teams start on SaaS, evaluate, then move to full sovereignty without starting over.

What it enables:

  • Export all workspace data from SaaS

  • Import directly into a self-hosted Drumee deployment

  • Permissions, chat history, and file structure preserved

Onboarding Wizard​

A guided 3-step flow after first login:

1. Create your first workspace

2. Upload a file

3. Invite a teammate

This resolves the current activation gap: new users landing on an empty interface with no guidance.

Chat-in-Folder UX​

The core product insight — folder = chatroom — is technically real but not visually obvious in the current UI. The roadmap item: integrate the chat panel directly into the folder view, visible immediately on opening a workspace.

Medium-Term (Next 90 Days)​

Homepage & Marketing Site Overhaul​

Current state: category unclear within 15 seconds. Target: category clear within 5 seconds.

Key changes:

  • Interactive 30-second demo video as hero
  • ROI calculator ("You pay $X for 3 tools. Drumee costs $Y. Save $Z.")
  • 3 concrete ICP use cases with aha moments shown
  • Social proof section (customer logos, testimonials)

Sidebar Navigation & UX Foundations​

Current state: no sidebar, no breadcrumbs, unlabeled toolbar icons.

Target: persistent left sidebar, breadcrumb navigation, all icons labeled.

Viral Loop Fix​

External sharing currently shows a generic file-download page. Target: recipient sees files + chat capability + a clear CTA to create their own workspace.

Long-Term (3–6 Months)​

SaaS App Marketplace​

An app store for the SaaS version — allowing teams to add plugins (diagram editors, planners, custom workflow agents) without managing their own server. Requires significant UX and security architecture work.

Enterprise Deployment Tier​

  • SSO integration (SAML, OAuth)

  • Multi-node deployment

  • Custom SLA and compliance documentation

  • Dedicated support

"Sovereign Builders" Community​

A community for teams and developers building on Drumee's infrastructure. Purpose: create philosophical and practical lock-in that survives any competitor price war.

What We Will Not Build​

Drumee will not build features that require compromising the sovereignty principle:

❌ AI training on user data

❌ Third-party analytics embedded in the core product

❌ Advertising or data monetization of any kind

❌ Features that only work when connected to Drumee's cloud

The product moat is the conviction, not the feature list.
