Hi Product Hunters 👋, I'm Alex, one of the founders of MarkUp. First off, thank you to @chrismessina for hunting MarkUp. About a year ago, we recognized that the process for leaving feedback on staging or live websites was extremely cumbersome. While there are many platforms for design prototyping, including InVision and Zeplin, none of these tools have taken the next step of providing a platform for collaboration on staging or live sites. A common workflow might see a designer creating a web design in InVision and having their development team create a build based on that. Once that build is finished, designers and developers typically revert to taking screenshots of the design and comparing that to InVision for feedback. Throw in email threads, Google Docs filled with comments, and phone calls, and this QA process starts to look incredibly messy. When we looked at other products trying to solve this problem, they are either too expensive at the core level or require you to download an extension. With MarkUp, our core product is free and users simply add their site URL and invite colleagues and clients to collaborate and comment in real-time, all in one place. No credit cards required. No extra downloading. With MarkUp, we've focused on providing the designer and developer community a product that is free at the core. MarkUp as it is today will always be free. We don't have pricing in place just yet but we are targeting a $15/month/user model for team plans that will include team permissions and project management functions. Anyone who has signed up by the end of today will get their team seats 50% off for the first 12 months. Thank you to everyone who has supported us along the way, including our 3,000 early MarkUp users who continually push us to shape our roadmap. We're always listening and would love for you to check it out. To the PH community, MarkUp is yours, free to use.

A truly awesome product! I have been using it in beta for 5 months with our entirely remote team (mostly with long landing pages & sales pages). It has honestly saved us so much time and hassle. Before, I use to record screen flows, learn other clunky software, annotate a PDF screenshot or try describe what I wanted via voice... Now, I can comment on specific areas in context and I know it's not going to be missed. It's been 100% hit rate on all edits so far! Two fav things: 1. Desktop,Tablet & Mobile Markup - It's AWESOME that you can switch between all three and have a separate version for each. Mobile is so often ignored... so this makes me happy. 2. It's simplicity - It does one thing extremely well and I don't have to sit around trying to learn a new tool. It's just really intuitive! Looking forward to seeing how much more MarkUp grows :)

If you work in UX/UI this tool is invaluable for receiving and managing client comments. Easy for clients to use, even easier for you to get through 100+ client comments easily. It takes the pain out of the review process for our agency but most importantly for clients.

MarkUp truly is a great looking and functional tool to present a website status to team members or clients. We've been using it and didn't run into major problems. The annotation feature works really well, even in our rather complex headless ReactJS builds. Some of our business clients are bound to older Internet Explorer versions because of weird security reasons, and in IE11, for example, MarkUp doesn't work too well. Can't really blame the tool for that, though, it's an unusual situation on our end. Still, I was wondering if basic IE11 support would be in the roadmap?

Very easy to use, gets rid of the need to send screenshots back and forth, easy way for clients to give feedback or to review a website for the dev team

First of all: the MarkUp support team is absolutely amazing: extremely responsive, open to the feedback, proactive, creative, and visual! Thank you @gregorydinardo @alex_bullington for keeping in touch with the users and including us in the roadmap shaping journey, and figuring out together the future tool enhancements! The product itself: very easy to use, simple, does what it needs to do – share, collaborate, improve the workflow. The feature of switching between Comment page and Browse page is phenomenal – makes your work efficiently smooth! Good luck, MarkUp team - your loyal customers will support your in your growth, discovery, and non-stop evolvement!!

Easy to use and solves major workflow issues for designers and creatives — highly recommend!

Our team has used MarkUp for a number of months for now and it's now our go-tool user feedback tool. One of the things we love the most is the simple and clean UI that makes it easy for clients, especially clients that might not be so tech-savvy, to provide design and content feedback. I've had to spend extremely little time explaining to new users how to use the tool which is awesome. I've used other tools similar to MarkUp and have either found the team/support to be unresponsive or the tools to be over-burdened with unnecessary features or old/bad UI. @alex_bullington and team are responsive, spend so much time working with our team understanding how we use the tool for continuous improvements, and we love watching the product grow. Kudos to the team!

We love this product - super easy to use, filled a big gap in our feedback workflows and the Markup team have been great at responding to our ideas and comments.

MarkUp has been a amazing product for us! It has made communication amongst a remote team easier than ever and has saved us countless hours and headaches. I’d recommend it to anyone who works in web design. And you can’t beat the price :)

A real game changer! Communication and feedback simplified.

Game changer, easily comment on websites. Easy to use.

Excellent tool which has been seamlessly integrated into our workflow. This has solved some major issues we were having regarding internal and external feedback. Now we couldn't be without it!

Easy to use, simplifies communication and has solved major workflow issues, love this product!

Huge fan of this tool! It has made communication amongst our team much easier & the design workflow has been simplified tremendously.

This looks fantastic and very user-friendly!

Been following this product for a while, it fit seamlessly into my work flow as a designer. Clients have loved using it and has improved our communication and workflow. Thank you Markup team.

Have been using in beta for some time now and MarkUp has changed our feedback process on our team!

I love this - super useful tool. We use invision for this between our design team but this is definitely something we'll try.

?makers this looks amazing! I'm especially excited about the mobile markup view. How well does this work with the Squarespace platform?
