Good Annotations
Good Annotations [1] is a web service for collaborative digital feedback through annotation tools. Users can upload images and PDF documents, add comments, pointers, shapes, callouts, drawings, borders, and share their thoughts with others. Every account acts as cloud storage for the user, helping maintain constant access to files from any device.
Good Annotation was featured on Product Hunt[2] among the top products of the day, had a breaking news article on NewsBreak[3], and was the talk of the town on UpdateorDie[4], Hackernews, Reddit, Medium, Vocal [5]., and Quora in English, Portuguese, Chinese, Croatian, German and other languages.
Users' data is private by default, and in full compliance with both GDPR and the company's extensive privacy policy. Every annotated document has a comment-thread feature that the author can choose to activate by sharing the document with others. Users can engage in discussions, and offer additional feedback on original annotations.
The state of web annotations[edit]
