Leave a comment
On a website project
- Open the project from your dashboard.
- Press C on your keyboard to enter comment mode (or use the mode switcher in the toolbar).
- Click anywhere on the page where you want to leave feedback.
- A comment dialog will appear — type your feedback.
- Optionally set a priority and visibility (visibility is only available to workspace members).
- Click Submit.
Your comment is pinned to the exact element you clicked. If the page layout changes, the pin moves with the element.
On a web app project (via the widget)
- Open the Huddlekit widget by clicking the floating button on your site.
- Switch to Comment mode (or press C on your keyboard).
- Click anywhere on the page where you want to leave feedback.
- A comment dialog will appear — type your feedback.
- Optionally set a priority and visibility (visibility is only available to workspace members).
- Click Submit.
On an image, PDF, or video
Open the document in the dashboard and click on the area you want to comment on. The same comment dialog will appear.
Comment options
Priority
Set a priority level to help your team triage feedback:
- Critical — urgent issues that need immediate attention.
- Medium — important but not blocking.
- Low — minor suggestions or nice-to-haves.
Priority is optional. If not set, the comment has no priority indicator.
Public and private comments
Workspace members can control who sees each comment:
- Public (default) — visible to everyone, including guests who access the project through a share link. Use this for feedback you want clients or external reviewers to see.
- Private — only visible to workspace members. Guests will never see private comments. Use this for internal notes, technical discussions, or feedback meant only for your team.
This lets you have client-facing conversations and internal discussions on the same project without creating separate channels. Guests do not see the visibility toggle and can only leave public comments.
Screenshots
When you place a comment on a website or web app, Huddlekit automatically captures a screenshot of the area around your click. This screenshot is saved with the comment so reviewers can see exactly what you saw, even if the page changes later.
@Mentions
Type @ followed by a name in any comment or reply to mention someone. An autocomplete list will appear — select the person you want to tag.
You can mention:
- Workspace team members
- Guests who have already commented on the project and provided their email address
Mentioned users receive an email notification with a link to the comment. Team members can turn off mention notifications in their notification settings.
Replying to comments
Click on a comment marker or open a comment from the sidebar to view the full thread. Type in the reply field at the bottom to respond. Replies support @mentions in the same way as top-level comments.
You and any workspace team member can edit or delete a reply. To delete your own reply, click the menu icon on the reply.
Editing and deleting
- Edit — click the menu on your own comment to edit the text or priority.
- Delete — remove a comment and all its replies. Only the comment author can delete it.
