Annoture
Visual QA bug capture, built for teams
The visual bug-capture tool built for QA teams. Click once and get an automatic bug report — screenshot, URL, browser, OS, and DOM element — already on your Kanban board. No manual write-up, no back-and-forth.
The product
What Annoture is
The problem
QA is slow when reporting a bug means screenshotting, describing steps, copying the URL, noting the browser and OS, and pasting it all into a ticket. Details get lost, developers ask for more context, and the loop drags on.
The solution
Annoture turns a bug into a complete, developer-ready report in a single click. A Chrome extension captures the screenshot and every piece of technical context, then syncs it straight onto a shared Kanban board in real-time.
My role · Founder & Engineer
I founded Annoture and built the entire product end-to-end — the Chrome extension, the real-time Kanban application, the Node.js API and database, billing, authentication, the marketing site, and the infrastructure it all runs on. From product strategy and design through to shipping and support, it's a solo full-stack build taken from idea to a live SaaS on the Chrome Web Store.
Capabilities
What it does
One-click bug capture
Click the extension, click the bug. A screenshot is taken instantly with the cursor position marked — zero friction, zero context switching.
Smart auto-annotation
Every capture includes the exact element clicked, its CSS path, viewport size, browser, and OS. No manual form-filling required.
Visual Kanban boards
Issues land straight on the board. Drag between Backlog, In Progress, Review, and Done, keeping the whole team aligned in real-time.
Team-first workflow
Invite unlimited members, assign issues, and leave comments with screenshots attached. Everyone sees the same source of truth.
Reporting & analytics
Monitor issue velocity, resolution time, and team performance. Export to PDF or integrate with Jira and Trello.
Enterprise ready
SSO, white-labelling, custom data retention, and granular board permissions for teams that need control.
