A Markup.io alternative you can start free
Markup.io's breadth across file types is real. For a small team reviewing websites, $79/month with no free tier is a lot of tool.
Free to start · No credit card · Guests don’t need an account
Markup.io charges one flat $79/month for unlimited users, which is excellent value at fifteen people and poor value at two. There's no free plan — a 14-day trial, then the full price. If websites are most of what you review and your team is small, WebPinch is $15 a seat with a free tier underneath and a Kanban board the feedback lands on.
Three reasons people leave Markup.io
$79/month is the entry price
There's no smaller plan and no free tier. Three people on WebPinch is $45/month, and the free plan costs nothing at all.
One workspace on Pro
Pro includes a single workspace; unlimited workspaces are Enterprise-only. WebPinch gives every project its own board without a workspace tier.
The comments need a home afterwards
Markup.io collects feedback; tracking it to done is your project-management tool's job. WebPinch makes each pin a card with an assignee and status.
What you keep, what you give up
You keep all of this
- Commenting directly on live websites
- Unlimited guests and reviewers
- No code required on the site being reviewed
You give up these
- Review of PDFs, slides, images and video — 30+ file types
- Unlimited users on one flat price, which wins at scale
- 500 GB of workspace storage for video review
If any of these is load-bearing for your team, staying on Markup.io is the right call and we’d rather you knew now.
Common questions
Is there a free Markup.io alternative?
+
WebPinch has a permanent free plan. Markup.io's pricing page offers a 14-day trial with no credit card, but no free tier.
Which is cheaper?
+
Under about six people, WebPinch — three seats is $45/month against Markup.io's $79 flat. Above six, Markup.io's unlimited-user plan costs less per head.
Does WebPinch review PDFs and video?
+
No, web pages only. If your review queue spans documents and video as much as websites, Markup.io covers ground we don't and it's a fair reason to stay.
Do either require code on the client's site?
+
Neither. Markup.io works from a URL and WebPinch works through a Chrome extension or in-app review.
