The ultimate visual feedback and collaboration layer for live websites and staging environments.
Brunch is a specialized technical orchestration layer designed to streamline the web review cycle by providing a collaborative interface directly atop live websites. By 2026, Brunch has evolved from a simple annotation tool into a sophisticated site-management hub that utilizes a proxy-based architecture or browser extension to inject a non-destructive feedback DOM. This allows stakeholders, including non-technical clients and seasoned developers, to pin comments, suggest copy changes, and report bugs directly on specific CSS selectors. The platform solves the 'lost-in-translation' problem of traditional feedback loops by capturing precise metadata—including browser version, OS, screen resolution, and URL parameters—with every comment. Technically, it leverages shadow DOM encapsulation to ensure that its collaboration UI does not interfere with the host site's styles or script execution. Its 2026 market position is solidified as an essential middleware for digital agencies and product teams that require real-time synchronization between visual feedback and project management stacks like Jira, Trello, and Linear, effectively reducing the QA-to-fix cycle by up to 60%.
Uses shadow DOM to render the collaboration interface, preventing CSS leakages between the feedback tool and the target website.
Verified feedback from the global deployment network.
Post queries, share implementation strategies, and help other users.
Automatically attaches User-Agent, viewport dimensions, and console logs to every comment.
Enables users to suggest text changes directly in the HTML through a WYSIWYG overlay.
Syncs annotations across different viewport presets (Mobile, Tablet, Desktop) simultaneously.
Websocket-based presence detection showing which element other users are currently inspecting.
Rule-based archiving of projects that haven't seen activity for a defined period.
Two-way sync where resolving a ticket in Jira automatically marks the comment as resolved in Brunch.
Clients provide vague emails like 'move the button up'.
