Jam on Chrome — Sticky notes for the web to comment right on your website

Thanks Ben for hunting us! Hi 👋 from Berlin 🌏! I’m Dani, a co-founder of Jam. We started building Jam because we were frustrated with the amount of meetings and back and forth it took to give design feedback to engineering. As soon as we left the “designing phase” and started the “building phase”, there was no good way to leave comments on what the engineer built. You know that meme about “the figma mockup” vs “the website”? (Meme: https://twitter.com/TrungTPhan/s...) That’s why it happens! We were all looking at the website and there was no built-in commenting for the web. We resorted to all these crazy solutions like pasting screenshots into spreadsheets to track feedback 🙀. So …. enter Jam, now available today as a Chrome extension. 💪 🎉 With Jam, you can leave comments right from the site (we automatically capture screenshots and other important developer information for you). 🤗 It’s great for: ✅ quickly capturing and annotating visual bugs ✅ reducing back and forths between designers and engineers ✅ surfacing problems early on. We hope you like it! 🤞 ‍🎨

Congrats on the launch, it looks very helpful. How does it work to link your business and website to Jam and to make your comments only seen by your developer?

Even as a solo developer I find this to be a really helpfull extension for my current workflow. Congrats on the launch!

A very smart way to avoid clashes and wastage of time and resources between the designer and the engineer especially when communication is not a feasible solution at that moment.

I have been looking for something like this for a long time. A tool that helps me think through what our website should become (and then send requests for changes to the dev team).

Co-creator here 👋 Building this feature gave us super powers when working on rest of the Jam. The ease of leaving feedback on any part of the application and using that later in iteration proces was a game changer for product quality!

👋 Copenhagen says hi back Dani! 😄 Looks like a really awesome idea. Currently #5286 in line, looking forward to get in 😎

Whoever designed this deserves a raise! For real though, loved the onboarding and feel of the product so far - going to be interesting to take for a test drive. Congrats on the launch!

Such a clever way to provide site feedback to our developer. Really love the smooth slack integration as well.

Looks very useful, especially when working remotely or on freelance)

Love the tool. Turns several back-and-forths on slack / a zoom call / asana comments / etc into feedback with all the context it needs to be meaningful. Thanks for building it, looking forward to using it!

Howdy! Super intrigued by this product, but our company has a security review before we're allowed to install any extensions. Can you elaborate on what data is collected (and when) related to the extension? For example, is it an "always on" sorta thing (like Grammarly) or does it only start reading your web content once you enable it for that page? Additionally, any other info or public-facing docs about data/privacy would be super helpful. Thanks!!

Definitely super useful for freelance Webflow designers and developers! No more chaotic feedback on Google Sheets and taking countless screenshots...

This is super cool. Great launch team Jam!

Congratulations @thedanigrant for the launch. Looks impressive

@thedanigrant super interesting. what is the tech stack that power this sauce?

Looks useful for testing activity, especially for layout issues/improvements.

So useful and so lightweight. I love how easy it is to use!

Super clever and useful extension! Thank you for building and sharing!

Congrats on the launch!
