What we're building now. No dates promised.
MCP sign-in
Connect your HTMLAnnotate account to Claude or ChatGPT, so pages shared through MCP land in your Projects and last as long as your plan allows.
- Improved
Paste your link on any Works with page
Each platform page, from Webflow to Lovable, now has a link box. Paste your site's address and it goes straight to import, with nothing to fill in twice. See it
- New
Assign comments and track progress
Hand a comment to a teammate and they get an email. Mark comments In progress while you work on them, and resolve them when they're done.
- New
Search comments
Search every comment and reply by word, name, label or number, and filter to open, in progress, assigned or resolved. On the review page and the project page.
- New
Team-only comments
The owner and teammates can tick Team only when they comment. Reviewers never see those threads or hear about them.
- New
Attach an image
Add a picture to any comment or reply, such as the photo that should go there or a sketch of the fix.
- New
Paste HTML emails
Paste the code from Mailchimp, Klaviyo, HubSpot or any email tool on the upload page, and review the email like any other page.
- New
PDF review
Upload a PDF and send the review link. Reviewers click any spot on any page to leave a comment pinned there, with no account. Replies, approvals, screenshots and new versions all work the same as for websites.
- Improved
Links first on the upload page
Pasting a website or staging link is now the first option when you start a review. Uploading an HTML file or a PDF is one click away.
- New
Page health check
Check any page for links that go nowhere, links to missing sections, broken outside links, images without a description, leftover dummy text and a missing title. Each problem becomes a comment you can resolve.
- New
Automatic check on every new review
The page health check now runs by itself when you share a page or add a new version, and emails you a short list only if it finds something. Nothing is shown to your reviewers.
- New
Exact phone and tablet sizes
In the phone or tablet view, pick a real device such as iPhone SE, iPhone 16 Pro Max, Pixel 8, iPad mini or iPad Pro 13. Comments still sort under Phone or Tablet.
- New
Expiry reminders
On the Free plan you get one email three days before a review link expires, and the project page says so too.
- Improved
Usage meter on Free
Projects shows how many of your 3 active projects you've used, and the upload page tells you before you pick a file if you're at the limit.
- Improved
Upload sizes by plan
Free uploads take HTML files and PDFs up to 1 MB. Pro and Team take up to 10 MB.
- Improved
Comment counts you can't miss
Desktop, Tablet and Mobile each show an orange count of their open comments, and All comments counts every view, so a note left on a phone never hides.
- New
Device icons on comments
Every comment shows a small desktop, tablet or phone icon for the view it was left in, everywhere comments appear.
- New
Unread count on Inbox
Inbox in the sidebar shows how many comments you haven't seen yet.
- Fixed
Your name on the Team page
Changing your name in your profile now updates it on the Team page too, along with your photo.
- New
Activity on every project
See whether your review link was opened. Pro and Team also see how many times, by how many people, which version they looked at, and when each named reviewer last opened it.
- New
Full technical details with each comment
Browser and version, system, screen size, language, time zone, rough location and any errors the page showed, a click away under each comment, with a Copy button. Only you can see them, and no IP address is stored.
- New
Pause new comments
Done with a round? Pause comments to keep every note visible while stopping new ones and replies. You and your team can still comment.
- New
Archive instead of delete
On Pro and Team, archive a review you're done with. The link turns off, everything is kept, and you can restore it from Projects any time. Delete is still there when you want it gone for good.
- New
Your own profile photo
Add or change your photo from your profile, even if you signed in without one.
- Improved
Straight to your dashboard
Signed in on the website, you now get one Go to dashboard button instead of Get started.
- New
Screenshots with comments
Every new comment saves a small picture of what the reviewer saw, with an orange dot where they clicked. The preview zooms in on that spot, and a click shows the whole screen. Your AI tool gets the picture link through Copy for AI and MCP too.
- Improved
Easier to read on big screens
Projects, Inbox and each project's page now use larger text, buttons and switches, so nothing feels tiny on a large monitor.
- Improved
A clear way to open the review
Each project's page now has a bright Open review page button at the top, plus a Review link card with Open and Copy, so you never hunt for it.
- Improved
"Only me" instead of "Private"
Projects only you can see are now labelled Only me, next to Team. The review links still work for anyone you send them to.
- Fixed
"Never expires" says what it means
Links that last forever now show Never expires, instead of a countdown in the tens of thousands of days.
- New
Versions
Made the changes? Publish a new version on the same review link: upload the new file, or for a live site just mark a new version. Your client sees a clean page, each earlier version keeps its comments to look back at, and you can email everyone who commented that it's ready. Your AI can publish the next version through MCP too.
- Improved
A clearer Approve button
Reviewers get a clear "Approve this version" button at the top of the review, with a quick confirmation before the final sign-off. Each approval belongs to the version it was given on, and you get an email the moment someone approves.
- New
Comment anywhere
Click or tap any spot on the page, even empty space or padding, and leave a comment pinned right there. Text, images and buttons still snap into place.
- Improved
Better on phones
Tap to comment on a phone, and a cleaner top bar on small screens.

Open on your phone

Comments beside the preview
In tablet and phone views, the comment list now sits next to the preview instead of inside the device frame.

Share pages straight from your AI tool (MCP)
Add HTMLAnnotate to Claude, ChatGPT, Cursor, VS Code and other AI tools. Ask it to share the page it just wrote, and it hands you a review link for your client. See it

Your AI can read the feedback too
Ask Claude or ChatGPT what your client said. Through MCP it reads every comment, makes the changes you ask for, replies, and marks each comment done. See it
- New
Email alerts for MCP shares
When your AI shares a page, it can ask for your email so you hear about every new comment. It also tells you that links made without an account last 24 hours, and that a free account keeps them for 14 days. See it
- New
Inbox
Every comment and reply across all your projects in one list, newest first, with a dot on anything you haven't seen.
- New
See if your client opened the link
Your projects now show whether a review link has been opened. Pro and Team also see how many times, by how many people, and when.

Fewer steps to upgrade

Signed-in uploads go to My projects
After you share a page while signed in, you're pointed to My projects instead of being asked to save a private link.
- New
Review password-protected staging sites
Sites behind a browser password box can now be imported. You enter the login once, it's stored encrypted, and reviewers never see it.
- New
Tag anyone by email
