Built for async handoffs, not live co-editing

Image Annotator places labeled pin markers — not real-time collaboration, shared workspaces, or freehand drawing. For the jobs remote teams actually need (async feedback, QA notes, design reviews), callouts with text labels export fast and stay legible when pasted into Slack, Linear, or Jira.

Why remote teams markup locally

Cloud markup tools upload your screenshot before you mark a single pixel. Pix-8 keeps processing on-device — the right model when you need image markup for remote teamsworking across time zones with sensitive UI.

Screenshots stay local

Screenshots never leave the device — safe for internal dashboards, customer data, and unreleased UI shared across time zones.

Async-ready exports

Flatten labeled callouts into one PNG you can drop into Slack, Linear, Jira, or email without a markup account.

Legible at a glance

Text labels on pin markers stay sharp in thread thumbnails, unlike freehand scribbles on dense interface screenshots.

How it works

  1. Step 1

    Capture the screen

    Capture the screen you need to discuss, then open it in Image Annotator — loaded locally via the browser File API.

  2. Step 2

    Label the point

    Click to place a labeled pin marker, type a short note (bug, question, step number), and drag it to the exact pixel.

  3. Step 3

    Share with the team

    Flatten and download or copy one image with all callouts baked in — paste it into your team channel or ticket.

Frequently asked questions

Is this image markup tool built for remote team workflows?

Yes — for async UI feedback, QA handoffs, and design reviews across time zones. Image Annotator places labeled pin markers on screenshots. It does not include real-time co-editing, shared workspaces, comment threads, or freehand drawing tools.

Are team screenshots uploaded to a server when we mark them up?

No. All processing runs on a client-side canvas in each teammate's browser. The file is read locally and is never transmitted to Pix-8 or any third-party server — important when screenshots contain staging URLs, user data, or confidential UI.

How is this different from Slack markup or a cloud annotation app?

Built-in markup is often limited or tied to a single platform. Cloud tools require uploads before you mark a pixel. Pix-8 flattens labeled callouts into a portable image anyone on the team can open — fast, free, fully local, and no account required.
