👋 Hello Product Hunters! My name is Cisco Guzman and together with my partner Demian Borba, I am proud to announce the launch of Pactto. 💼 🛠️ Demian and I met at Adobe while developing tools for creative professionals and then after Adobe, we each continued working on productivity tools for designers, developers, and stakeholders. Do you know what we realized? 🤕 😵‍💫 That no matter which productivity & communication tools people used, the same pain points and pitfalls creeped up. Creative pros have to endure soul-sucking meetings and wade through a jungle of docs, pinned comments, IM threads, voice & text messages in order to give and receive feedback. That is why we got together to come up with a solution to this mess. And with your feedback and support, we are confident we will get there! 🎥 💬 Pactto is a mobile-first and private-first tool for creative pros to record video feedback with precision & nuance. Add a recording of yourself to any video or image and mark it up with screen drawing tools. Create screen recordings and even give feedback on audio files! 💥 One Pactto is worth ten thousand words and definitely a couple of meetings! 🚀 🗺 This launch is just the beginning. We are on a journey to give you, creative pro, a communication tool that is worthy of your nuanced, precise messages. Join us on this journey by trying Pactto and telling us what you think. We are scrappy and we would love to hear from you, truly. Have a feature request? Please tell us and we promise to do our best to give you the tools you need. 🌟 We envision a world in which Pactto is the default artifact for digital human communication — a world of rich, lossless exchange where people say, “Let me Pactto that to you.” Join us on that journey and help us banish lossy, tedious communication forever. 🤔 How is this different from other video messaging and screen recording tools? Plain and simply, Pactto is packed with features that creative pros have asked for and that are missing from those general business tools. Here’s a brief snapshot of what you get with Pactto: 🎨 A palette of tools to make your point crystal clear Create auto-fading drawings and notes, compare multiple assets, sync up multiple timelines, and control speed for frame-by-frame precision. 🕵️‍♂️ Keep WIP under wraps Save Pacttos on-device instead of uploading to the cloud if privacy and security are a primary concern. Share between devices or to an encrypted solution such as WhatsApp. 🔌 Works 100% offline Pactto was built to support onsite, onset, and traveling professionals. No internet connection in a remote location? Not a problem. 💥 Supercharge productivity and bypass tedious transfers Quickly review multiple videos at once (from just about any codec), work from a memory card, and speed things up with keyboard shortcuts. 🖥️ Desktop Screen Recording (beta) 🆕 Turn an ordinary screen capture into a canvas with a palette of freehand and callout tools (the drawings are movable and scalable!) 🔊 Audio File Review (beta) 🆕 Musicians, listen up. Pactto lets you share and comment on audio files on a beat-by-beat timeline so you can break down your feedback with unparalleled precision. ✨ Speed things up with AI (private beta) 🆕 Create a link to share with teammates & stakeholders and instantly generate a transcript of their feedback or make a list of all the action items. 🙏 Please give Pactto a try and help us spread the word!

This looks like such an great product for coaching and providing feedback!

@chris_kohanik Thanks Chris! Yes! The idea for Pactto started with surfing coaches wanting a way to better communicate feedback to students and we found that once it was in people's hands, the folks who ALSO really loved it were video editors, content creators, and designers who didn't feel that the more generic screen recorders were giving them the tools they wanted, so enter Pactto. Thank you SO much for your support. Can't wait to hear what you think!

@chris_kohanik thanks, Chris. It is even better for asynchronous design critique
