Honest comparison

Decize vs Loqbooq

Their public pages were read on 21 September 2026. Tell us if something has changed.

Loqbooq is no longer available: its own site says it was discontinued in September 2024. If Slack capture was the reason you used it, Decize is not a like-for-like replacement, because it has no Slack app yet. Decize suits teams whose decisions happen in email and who want outcomes followed up.

What Loqbooq was

Loqbooq was a decision log from Coding Friends GmbH, built around Slack. Teams recorded decisions with /loqbooq add, reviewers approved them with one click, and approved decisions were stored permanently and unalterably. Its site now says it was discontinued in September 2024 and remains for reference only.

If you used Loqbooq

  • Loqbooq is not an option for new or existing teams: it was discontinued in September 2024.
  • If Slack capture is essential, choose a tool with a working Slack app today; Decize does not have one.
  • If records must be unalterable after sign-off, look for a tool built on immutable records.

Choose Decize if

  • Your team’s decisions happen in email and you want them captured by forwarding or Cc.
  • You want owners reminded before deadlines and asked how each decision turned out.
  • You want unlimited people on a price set by decision volume rather than active users.
  • You have past decisions written down elsewhere: paste the document into Import, a paid feature, and approve them row by row.
