Bubbles — Simple video and screen capture collaboration

Featured

With Bubbles you can collaborate by simply clicking anywhere on your screen. Drop a comment and start a conversation with anyone. It is as simple as click, comment and share.

I really like this. At first I thought it was similar to Loom but the comment w/ click feature, I enjoy.

@alex_papageorge That's great to hear :) we just getting started

Hey Hunters, We are excited to bring you Bubbles, solving the pain of trying to show what you're talking about! Even before COVID, we saw how hard it could be for remote teams to collaborate. Now of course, we’ve all been forced to rapidly adapt and adjust our way of working, and the need for even better collaboration tools has become extremely apparent. That’s why we built Bubbles. Our goal is to help people and teams communicate and collaborate as if they are in the same room. We are taking the screen sharing experience to the next level, so that collaboration doesn’t get in the way of doing great work. With Bubbles you can quickly start a conversation with anyone, by dropping a comment on anything you see on your screen, and sharing a private link to start a conversation – in the context of what you see. Some highlights about Bubbles: 1. Capture a screen recording or screenshot of whatever's on your screen 2. Drop text or audio comments at the right place and time 3. Share a unique secret link with your teammates (no sign on required) 4. Highlight important points in your recording 5. Close out issues asynchronously Our team is distributed globally and we are building Bubbles to make collaboration delightful, we hope you enjoy it and would love your feedback. Thanks @jmj for hunting us!

@jmj @tom4 does the collaborator need the chrome extension also?
Tom Medema
@iamroguelondon they don't need to install anything :)

Have been using Bubbles for a few months now with my team and with other creators. Love the ease of use - had been looking for a tool like this forever and now find it so easy to collaborate. Thanks for building this!
Shaun Gardner
@janel_loi so good to hear🤘 thanks for the support!!!
Lluís Ventura
Fantastic tool to provide visual feedback in context! Easy to use and to the point! just discovered today about screen recording with comments! Awesome!
Muntasir Rashid
I absolutely love Bubbles. As a product manager, this is my go-to stack for feedback management with the team. Congrats on launching :)
Tom Medema
Hey @muntasir_rashid this makes us very happy! Thanks for being a part of our journey!
Ramiro Saenz
First, congratulations on the launch! I discovered Bubbles a few weeks ago because we used Loom before and because of their new limitations on the Free plan, we had to find another replacement... and Bubbles was the candidate. Great UI and UX, easy to use, but the only two main features we need are: - Up to 15 minutes of recording at least. - Password protection. The password protection is a must for us because we are devs and in a lot of videos we share between us, they may contain API keys, tokens, etc. Do you have plans to provide password protection?
Shaun Gardner
@saenzramiro first off thanks for the support! With regards to your questions, these are items we have planned out in our future road map and is just a matter of when and how we release them. But I would love to learn more about how you guys are using bubbles at rambox. I have sent you a DM on Twitter :)
Rodrigo Chiong
Gosh I love Bubbles. And it doesn't even require a sign up! Simple and useful. They recently added video capture and timestamped comments which are super useful for bug reporting and QA in general.
Tom Medema
@letsan Simple & powerful is what we strive for! It's great to see some of our latest features being used in the wild ❤️
Antonina Krus
I've just discovered Bubbles and already in love with the product🤩! The best thing I loved is the ability to leave comments at the needed place during video recording. Congrats on launching!
Shaun Gardner
@antonina_krus thanks for the support and kind words 😊 Lets us know if you have any feedback or ideas. We love learning from our users

Bubbles is taking asynchronous collaboration to the next level. Being able to share anything on screen and collaborate with anyone has been a game changer. I'm thrilled to support @tom4 and team on this great product!
Elie Steinbock
Looks great. Wondering what the business model is? Also, is there a way to delete videos yet? How long do they stack around for?
Tom Medema
Hey @eliezer_steinbock1, you can deactivate links by pressing on your avatar on the top left and choosing "deactivate link". This will make your link unavailable to viewers.
Sandeep Talukdar
I <3 Bubbles. Everything you can do with it is so powerful, simple and effective. My workflow for making copy changes and design improvements on landing pages, illustrations and designs will never be the same again. So easy to share, collaborate and get things done on my end. Working with developers is seamless for both us marketers and the techies. Awesome stuff. Look forward to seeing this product grow. Cheers to the makers and the team behind Bubbles!
Tom Medema
This is what keeps us going, thank you @sandeeptalukdar and we're proud to have an incredible community with awesome people like you!
Andy Dent
Show a video of a collaboration in action to make this a lot more credible. It sounds good but those screenshots could have easily been cooked up in an editor. There are many people putting out just landing page experiments and fake screens so it's important to show your app in action to prove it's real.
Christian Piponides
@andydentperth1 It's legit. Check out an example here of a Bubble post in action 🤙
Clyde D'Souza
Looks pretty neat and easy to use! I was using Loom and this seems like a great alternative. What's the max recording limit? Couldn't find any details on the website, unfortunately.
Tom Medema
@clydedsouza It's currently 30 mins!
Minjie Shi
Awesome product! So far, the easiest feedback sharing SaaS platform I can find. I have mainly used the screen grab for feedback and will try the video method soon as well. Keep up with the great work guys!
Shaun Gardner
@minjie_shi thanks for the kind words 😊 let us know how your record experience goes
Jack Altman
Congrats teams and thrilled to be supporting! I think this is going to make a lot of people more productive.
Christian Piponides
I've been using Bubbles over the last 4 months, giving UX feedback to products on here, across design communities, and within design projects with clients. I have to say, Bubbles is one of the easiest tools to share designs, and receive feedback straight from project stakeholders. I've saved countless of hours not having to send emails back and forth responding to feedback comments, solving them straight through a Bubble post. Highly recommend using this tool for the next project you have to give/receive feedback from. Wishing the best of success to the Bubbles team!! @tom4 @shaungards @barbragago
Shaun Gardner
Thanks, @christian_piponides :) As a designer myself i know how much time Bubbles can save for feedback loops.
Christian Piponides
@christian_piponides @shaungards Awesome! Some of my favourite Bubble posts so far 1, 2, 3 :)
Vedika Jain
@rrhoover and I use Bubbles* at Weekend Fund: internally and externally to give feedback on websites, app flows and more. It's the best way we've found to give feedback in context: none of that take a screenshot, share in slack, start a 234324 long comment thread. Just show what you mean. There's no going back once you start using Bubbles. *Weekend Fund is an investor and a fan
Tom Medema
Thanks @vedika_jain @rrhoover -- it's been a blast working with weekend fund 😊
Sebastian Fung
I've been using Bubbles for the past 5 months and LOVE how easy the product is to use, even for non-tech people. Product / design is the obvious use case but I've found that it works well for "consultations" where you want to address specific points within a paragraph. i.e., imagine you're peer-reviewing someone's paper or adding feedback on a workout/diet plan. Definitely worth checking out!
Tom Medema
Hey @sebfung, this is particularly enjoyable to read. Part of what we do is to give the visual collaboration superpowers of tools for professionals to everyone, so that we can all collaborate together. Your review is a great testament to this. 👍
Eve Weinberg
I'm kind of confused. From the marketing material, I got the impression that I was annotating directly onto a live URL, but it seems like it's just taking a screenshot or recording. Is this true? In which case, how does it differ from all the other screen recoding tools, like CloudApp, which is what I use to annotate.
GalloDaSballo
Very surprised and happy to see Bubbles on PH today! From my experience seeing bubbles evolve and the amount of work Tom has put into it, I'm confident this is the best product for collaboration on the market. Give it a try and see for yourself! Props to Tom and Team!
Tom Medema
@gallodasballo thanks so much! This is what keeps us going! :)
