Annot vs dotts

Annot collects feedback on websites through live previews that clients can open from a shared link and comment on without an account. Teams can sort comments into open and resolved states to track issues. Previews support custom code and WebGL, and an in-app widget collects comments from people using a web app. The service identifies Slack notifications, Notion sync, and execution through Claude, Cursor, or any AI model as workflow integrations. It runs on the web and describes agencies and freelancers among its users. The free plan includes one active project, one page, one user, and unlimited guests. Freelance costs $9 a month and includes one active project and one user. Pro costs $29 a month for three active projects and unlimited users; Agency costs $59 a month for unlimited projects and users. All paid plans include unlimited guests. Annot says it does not sell personal data; its policy also describes data collection and retention periods.

dotts is a web-based client feedback tool for freelance web designers and small teams. It collects pinned comments on live websites, PDFs, and images, with clients able to leave feedback through a shared review link without an account, login, or installation. A sidebar gathers comments so users can navigate to them, resolve them, edit them, or delete them. Uploads can be JPEG, PNG, SVG, WebP, PDF, or HEIC, and users can also review live website URLs. Comments support attachments, emoji reactions, and mentions, and can show device, browser, and screen-size context. dotts says it works with publicly accessible Squarespace, Webflow, Wix, and Framer sites without a plugin or integration. Its doby AI MCP server connects with Claude Code, Cursor, and Codex to read open comments and resolve them while changes are made. The free Testing plan allows up to three projects and unlimited reviewers. Pro costs $15 a month or $150 per year.
