+# Feature stages
+
+Some Coder features are released in feature stages before they are generally
+available.
+
+If you encounter an issue with any Coder feature, please submit a
+[GitHub issue](https://github.com/coder/coder/issues) or join the
+[Coder Discord](https://discord.gg/coder).
+
+## Early access features
+
+- **Stable**: No
+- **Production-ready**: No
+- **Support**: GitHub issues
+
+Early access features are neither feature-complete nor stable. We do not
+recommend using early access features in production deployments.
+
+Coder often releases early access features behind an “unsafe” experiment, where
+they’re accessible but not easy to find.
+They are disabled by default, and not recommended for use in
+production because they might cause performance or stability issues. In most cases,
+early access features are mostly complete, but require further internal testing and
+will stay in the early access stage for at least one month.
+
+Coder may make significant changes or revert features to a feature flag at any time.
+
+If you plan to activate an early access feature, we suggest that you use a
+staging deployment.
+
+<details><summary>To enable early access features:</summary>
+
+Use the [Coder CLI](../install/cli.md) `--experiments` flag to enable early access features:
+
+- Enable all early access features:
+
+   ```shell
+   coder server --experiments=*
+   ```
+
+- Enable multiple early access features:
+
+   ```shell
+   coder server --experiments=feature1,feature2
+   ```
+
+You can also use the `CODER_EXPERIMENTS` [environment variable](../admin/setup/index.md).
+
+You can opt-out of a feature after you've enabled it.

+## Beta
+
+- **Stable**: No
+- **Production-ready**: Not fully
+- **Support**: Documentation, [Discord](https://discord.gg/coder), and [GitHub issues](https://github.com/coder/coder/issues)
+
+Beta features are open to the public and are tagged with a `Beta` label.
+
+They’re in active development and subject to minor changes.
+They might contain minor bugs, but are generally ready for use.
+
+Beta features are often ready for general availability within two-three releases.
+You should test beta features in staging environments.
+You can use beta features in production, but should set expectations and inform users that some features may be incomplete.
+
+We keep documentation about beta features up-to-date with the latest information, including planned features, limitations, and workarounds.
+If you encounter an issue, please contact your [Coder account team](https://coder.com/contact), reach out on [Discord](https://discord.gg/coder), or create a [GitHub issues](https://github.com/coder/coder/issues) if there isn't one already.
+While we will do our best to provide support with beta features, most issues will be escalated to the product team.
+Beta features are not covered within service-level agreements (SLA).
+
+Most beta features are enabled by default.
+Beta features are announced through the [Coder Changelog](https://coder.com/changelog), and more information is available in the documentation.
+
+## General Availability (GA)
+
+- **Stable**: Yes
+- **Production-ready**: Yes
+- **Support**: Yes, [based on license](https://coder.com/pricing).
+
+All features that are not explicitly tagged as `Early access` or `Beta` are considered generally available (GA).
+They have been tested, are stable, and are enabled by default.
+
+If your Coder license includes an SLA, please consult it for an outline of specific expectations.
+
+For support, consult our knowledgeable and growing community on [Discord](https://discord.gg/coder), or create a [GitHub issue](https://github.com/coder/coder/issues) if one doesn't exist already.
+Customers with a valid Coder license, can submit a support request or contact your [account team](https://coder.com/contact).
+
+We intend [Coder documentation](../README.md) to be the [single source of truth](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Single_source_of_truth) and all features should have some form of complete documentation that outlines how to use or implement a feature.
+If you discover an error or if you have a suggestion that could improve the documentation, please [submit a GitHub issue](https://github.com/coder/internal/issues/new?title=request%28docs%29%3A+request+title+here&labels=["customer-feedback","docs"]&body=please+enter+your+request+here).
+
+Some GA features can be disabled for air-gapped deployments.
+Consult the feature's documentation or submit a support ticket for assistance.
