Business operations concept · updated August 9, 2026
Feature Flag
A feature flag is a switch that turns a new capability on or off for specific users without requiring a separate release.
Example
A new reporting view is enabled for a handful of workspaces first, letting the team gather real feedback before turning it on for everyone.
Why it matters
Rolling a change out gradually limits how many people are affected if something unexpected goes wrong, and lets real usage inform the wider release.
Limits and cautions
Flags left in place long after a feature is fully released accumulate as clutter that makes the underlying logic harder to follow.
Relevance to Stelaah
Stelaah's phased rollout capability lets a new workflow or module reach part of a workspace's team before requiring it of everyone.
This connection describes product intent, not a guarantee that every plan or workflow supports every related capability.
