• Clients and stakeholders need no training — click the thing, describe the problem.
• Element-pinned feedback removes ambiguity about which button is broken.
• Unlimited guest reviewers on paid plans.

• Extremely low friction — one click produces a report developers can act on.
• Genuinely useful free tier.
• Automatic repro steps and console capture cut triage dramatically.

• Built for website feedback, not engineering defect management.
• Web only.
• The built-in board is weak; most teams push to a real tracker anyway.

• Browser extension per reporter, so it does not work for anonymous end users.
• Chrome-centric.
• Not a tracker — you still need somewhere for the issue to live.
