Why teams switch from Headway

AI writes your changelogs

Headway requires you to manually write every changelog entry. CommitCatalog reads your Git commits and generates release notes with AI — saving hours per release.

Direct Git integration

CommitCatalog connects to your GitHub repo and syncs commits automatically. No copying and pasting from your terminal into a separate changelog tool.

Better value paid plan

CommitCatalog Pro is $19/month vs Headway's $29/month, and includes AI summaries, unlimited projects, and full GitHub integration.

Zero manual work

Push code, and your changelog updates itself. Headway is a manual publishing tool — CommitCatalog is an automation platform.
