About

Hypothesis is an open-source social annotation tool widely used in education that allows users to highlight, comment on, and annotate web pages, PDFs, and other digital content collaboratively.

It supports threaded discussions, public and private groups, tagging and replies, instructor moderation, and deep integration with learning management systems such as Canvas, Blackboard, Moodle, and D2L Brightspace to embed annotation activities into courses and assignments.

PageProofer is a visual annotation and website feedback tool that lets users leave notes, drawings, screenshots, and screen recordings pinned to specific web page elements to communicate design issues and bugs.

It captures contextual metadata such as browser, OS, and screen size, supports file attachments and comments, offers a centralized dashboard for tracking and assigning feedback, and integrates with project management tools like Trello, Jira, and Slack.
