dotts vs. Figma comments

Feedback where the real site lives

Figma is where you design, and its comments live on the design file. But your client doesn't have a Figma account, and the built site behaves differently from the mockup. dotts is where feedback happens once there's a real URL: staging review, pre-launch QA and every post-launch change request.

The handoff gap

Where Figma comments run out

“The staging site is up, can you take a look?”

Figma comments sit on the mockup. Once there's a staging URL, the design file isn't where the review should happen.

With dotts: Share the staging link in dotts. Your client comments on the real page, no Figma account needed.

“It looked fine in Figma, but it's off on mobile.”

Real content, real breakpoints and real browser behaviour only show up once the site is built.

With dotts: dotts captures each comment with a screenshot plus browser, OS and viewport, so pre-launch QA is grounded in reality.

“Small change on the live page, can you note it?”

After launch, the work lives on the live site, not in the Figma file anymore.

With dotts: Clients pin post-launch change requests straight onto the live page, and Copy for AI brings them into your editor.

FAQs

dotts and Figma, answered

Should I use dotts instead of Figma?
plus icon

No, after it. Design and prototype in Figma; review the built site in dotts. They cover different stages of the same project, and they work well together.

Why not just use Figma comments?
plus icon

Figma comments live on the design. The moment the site is built, real content, responsive breakpoints and actual browser behaviour aren't in the Figma file. dotts is where you comment on the built reality.

Do clients need a Figma account?
plus icon

To comment in Figma, reviewers sign in. In dotts your client clicks a link and comments with no account, which is often what makes client review actually happen.

Can dotts review the Figma file too?
plus icon

dotts reviews the built site, plus PDFs and images. Keep designing and commenting in Figma; bring in dotts once there's a URL, a PDF or an image to look at.

When in the project does dotts fit?
plus icon

At handoff and after: staging review, pre-launch QA, and post-launch change requests on the live site.

Is dotts GDPR compliant?
plus icon

dotts is an EU company with EU hosting and is GDPR-compliant, which often matters most for agencies with European clients.

What is Copy for AI?
plus icon

One click turns a feedback thread into structured context for Claude, ChatGPT or Cursor, including page, element and browser details.
