We used Pastel to launch the new Ada website. It had a big impact on our feedback collection cycle and ultimately the speed at which we were able to develop it. Thoughtfully designed product that just works. Congrats to the team!
@chasegiunta Nope, all plans come with unlimited client accounts. Users are able to create canvases and export comments, clients can view and comment on canvases. So you can feel free to share with as many people as you'd like to get feedback :)
I remember telling a friend who works in product about Pastel, and one of the first questions he had was around if image mockups were supported (as opposed to just websites/webpages). Super exciting that this is now part of the product!
Hi Product Hunt,
Pastel co-founder here. A year ago, we debuted on Product Hunt and got an overwhelmingly positive response. Your incredible support helped us spread the word and focus on the right things to build. Pastel started with a simple idea: what if we could comment directly on websites and make design and development collaboration easier and faster? We’re happy to say we’ve been able to do just that for the thousands of people that found Pastel over the last year, with over 100,000 comments on projects they’re working on.
With today’s launch, we add the ability to use Pastel earlier in your web design process, with feedback on PNG & JPG mockups and designs. Now, we can confidently say Pastel can be your one feedback tool when building websites, from mockup to the final product in the browser. With this, we hope we’ll be able to help even more teams communicate better on web projects.
This community’s support means a lot to us. We would love to hear about your experience with Pastel and any ways you’d like to see us improve the product.
Thank you!

I always took so many screenshots to covey the bug to my developer, not Pastel made everything easy
Pros:Wow, this is what I am waiting for a long time, Great work team, love it
Cons:Nothing
It's a good tool - use it!
Pros:Big fan, used it a few times to help with client work.
Cons:Basic, but IMHO that's helpful in this regard.
@ariel_jedrzejczak Hi Ariel, that's definitely something we've thought about before. Would you like me to let you know whenever we have any updates on that front?
@ariel_jedrzejczak Sounds good! Will let you know once we have more info on that :)
love this feedback tool. Super easy to use, and the best thing is you can start for free if you only have one client to deal with.
@daniel_montero Hi Daniel, makes sense! We're looking at the best way to make that work - I can keep you updated on that if you'd like
Great tool for getting to the point feedback about specific areas on your project. We've been using it to send out for existing customers who want to make changes to their websites. I am pumped to test out the .jpg mock ups for showing new prospects my rough drafts.
@krisaguero Thanks Kris! Look forward to hearing your thoughts on the new features :)
Very nice! I love that simplicity! The only thing is that lots of similar tools have a free-forever account. Do you think it's not a good idea?
I think it will better to put under ssl all the platform :)
@nicolo_magnanini Thanks Nick!
It's something we've thought about but still trying to figure out the best way to make a useful free account.
And ssl on canvases is something we'll be adding in the near future :)
I like the idea though the UI needs to be a bit smoother. I also would be happy to be able to draw some arrows, etc. That's helpful when you're doing a review.
Pros:Simple and fast. I like the idea. I'd use it
Cons:There are some issues with the support of different languages. This may steal a lot of customers from you guys.
