The short answer
Is there a cheaper MarkUp.io alternative?
For feedback on screenshots and videos, yes. Cropped Pro sends links people comment on with no account, pinned to a spot or a moment, with no limit on how many you send. It’s $24.99 a year per person. MarkUp.io also reviews live websites and PDFs, which Cropped doesn’t.
