dotts vs SiteDots

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.

SiteDots lets people place comments, feedback and fix requests directly on a live website. Its Chrome extension adds tags to page elements through isolated scripts, and the maker says setup takes under two minutes without scripts or code snippets. Comments record the screen size and device type when posted; the maker says annotations stay attached to their target elements as screen size changes. Projects can include teammates and clients who view, edit, create and approve tags. Invitees need no paid plan and can join projects without limit. The maker says the extension works with WordPress, Shopify, Webflow and custom-built sites, including private pages the user can access. It currently works in Chrome, with support for other browsers being worked on. Trello, Notion, Slack and Discord syncing, plus Webhooks and Zapier automation, are marked coming soon in pricing. The free plan allows one project/domain, three users and 12 dots per project. Paid plans are $10 USD per month billed yearly and $33 USD per month billed yearly.
