Yep, something like Git Cliff[1] is great for generating release notes from your commit messages.

And conventional commits are good thing to do regardless of whether you use them for release notes or not. Commit messages should be helpful and immediately obvious, too often its "fixed bug" or "finally figured out foo!", which really tell you nothing - might as well not have a message.
