Mission

Goals

Become the primary feedback mechanism for Mozilla products.
Find solutions to specified user feedback needs to make Mozilla's products better.
Promote the benefits of an open feedback system.

How we want to get to those goals:

Provide low-bar submission methods for defined needs from user feedback.
Experiment with our data to find new ways to visualize and propagate data (deal with scale inherently).
Construct methods to use Input as a feedback loop for QA, localization and marketing.

Principles

Feedback sent to Mozilla should be constructive, direct and actionable.
Feedback should allow drivers to make decisions that deliver a better value proposition to our users.
Submissions should take no more than 5 steps to submit.
Feedback should be fun to write!
Collecting and using feedback should be in accordance with Mozilla's privacy policies.
