Overview

Markup Hero is a daily-use screenshot and annotation tool that gives you everything you need to communicate your message on images, PDFs, and more.

With Markup Hero, you can easily annotate screenshots, image uploads, PDFs, websites and Google Docs, Slides, and Sheets.

You can even mark up multi-page documents, so go ahead and highlight like you’re cramming for a molecular biology exam.

The best part? Markup Hero’s annotation tools work on Mac, Windows, Chrome, Linux, and mobile web, keeping things moving no matter which your operating system you run.

Create content with lightning-fast screenshots and quickly communicate with instant share links!

Getting started with Markup Hero is easy. Simply download the free screenshot app, and then sign up with your name, email and password.

You can even try the annotation tool without an account, just in case you wanna take it out for a test drive first.

All of your markups will be transferred when you create an account, so none of your work gets lost.

Markup Hero also seamlessly integrates with Slack and Google Drive, so you can “open with” directly from Slack DMs, channels, images, or PDFs.

That way, when you respond to your colleague’s image with “I’ll get right back to you,” you can actually mean it.

Access a comprehensive suite of annotation tools, sharing capabilities, and powerful integrations!

With Markup Hero, you can annotate just about anything from just about anywhere.

Thanks to its thumbnail integrations with popular platforms such as Slack, Twitter, Facebook, Discord, WhatsApp, and Notion, you can share links and instantly see a preview.

And unlike your iPhone data plan, Markup Hero has no storage or bandwidth limitations.

Explain ideas quickly and clearly with tons of markup tools and creative controls.

Markup Hero stores your history forever without storage limits, so you’ll never lose an annotation.

And if that’s not enough forever for you, you can also edit your stored markups forever. (Forever, ever, forever, ever?)

That means your markups will never get flattened when you close the annotator.

Markup Hero ensures that you can find, edit, or even duplicate an old markup easily and forever.

Share with links, collections, or thumbnail embeds; plus download, copy to clipboard, and export to PDF!

And to make the most of your history, Markup Hero also allows you to tag your markups.

Then you can quickly filter and search through your markups using your own tags.

You’ll have the organizational system of your dreams, instead of that one nightmare with the giant crab. (...just me? Okay.)

Got a team? Want to customize the share link branding? Markup Hero’s got you covered.

Add and remove users, transfer markups, and add your logo and team name to make the experience exactly how you want it.

Maximize productivity, find and share content easily and bring your entire team together in one place.

Whether you’re a product manager, customer support rep, or just someone who screenshots your fave DIY crafts from Pinterest, your desktop probably looks like a losing Tetris screen.

Ready for a tool that can save the day (and your time) and let you get back to the important things?

Markup Hero helps you keep track of your screenshots and annotations, so you’ll never have to waste time hunting for that one file ever again.

Q: Please can you prioritise adding LetsEncrypt for SSL.

We don't want to move to Cloudflare from our current (paid) DNS provider.

If this isn't likely to happen soon, please can you at least apply our custom branding and remove the tools, Markup Hero logo, Intercom etc from the share pages? Thanks.

Q: Hey Jeff, A few Qa 😉 1.

For 2 codes, is custom domain and CNAME feature available now or is it for later release?

2. If sign up for your FREE plan to try things out, would I be able to use the same account when adding codes for this AppSumo deal or would I need to create a new account with different email address?

3. You might touched on this point in some comments and reviews, but thought I check here as to how you plan to sustain the business with the unlimited files storage model even though I know, nothing is really unlimited. It’s all virtual because no one can do things unlimited in reality as in physical sense if you know what I mean. The 50MB per file limit sounds “real” 😉

Thank you,
Anil

A: Hi anilagrawal; answers to your question:

1. Yes, it's live and you get it with 2 or 3 codes
2. Yes, if you test the free you can upgrade with your codes
3. Yes, the way we are able to do unlimited is largely b/c we don't do video. storing markups the way we do it is extremely cheap. There will of course be those few users that have thousands and thousands of markups so at some point we may have an archive feature that puts things into cold storage, but otherwise no. And the 50MB limit is on upload, not storage.

Q: Hi, MH folks, are your servers overloaded already?

1. I have put in one of my Appsumo codes, and so I should see slots for 3 users. But, when I click on "Team" in my Account, the "loading" animation goes on forever. This is when using the Chrome extension on a Win 10 laptop.

2. Can you give us some idea of your company's staying power? Basically, is MH already profitable? Is it bootstrapped and do the founders have prior startup successes you can share with us?

Thanks.

A: Hi there!! Answers below:

1) please message on intercom so we can look at that issue. Should be an easy fix.

2) good question. We are bootstrapped and have built the platform to be very inexpensive to run and scale significantly. Also if you check our linked in profiles you’ll see we’ve all done this before with quite a bit of success.

So in short we’re here to stay. We make good money already but even if it were a slow grow from here we can run on cash flow for a long time.
