dotts vs Huddlekit

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.

Huddlekit is a visual annotation and QA tool for designers, developers, and clients reviewing websites, web apps, images, PDFs, and video. Comments on websites and web apps capture a screenshot and context such as the page, clicked element, browser, device, and viewport. Guests can comment through a shared link without an account or browser extension, and guest access is unlimited on every plan. Comments can be tracked on a project Kanban board and assigned owners, priorities, due dates, and effort estimates.

Inspect mode shows sizing, spacing, and alignment on a live website without opening developer tools. Pro and Team add side-by-side breakpoint review, custom breakpoints per project, and connections to Claude, Claude Code, or Cursor over MCP. Team also includes integrations, webhooks, and REST API access. The free plan includes 3 team members, 1 project, unlimited guests, and 100 MB of storage. Pro is $19 a month and Team is $39 a month. Review requires a desktop browser window at least 1,024 pixels wide; Wix page passwords do not work for staging review.
