Print designers have proofed work for a century: a numbered proof, a deadline, a signature. HopBack brings that discipline to websites, with the proof being the live site itself.
Most website feedback tools stop at the conversation. Comments come in, get answered, get lost. A proof is different. It says: this is version two, here is what was checked, here is who signed it, here is when. When the client asks in March why the footer says what it says, the proof answers.
HopBack does both. The pins are the conversation. The rounds, the finish-review lock and the recorded approval are the proof.
Round 1 of 3, feedback due Friday. Both show on the client's review.
Every page, every screen size, pins on anything that needs changing.
They choose Approve or Send feedback. The round locks.
Unresolved items carry forward. Compare shows round one beside round two.
Name, time, locked. Notified by email, or Slack and Teams on Studio and Agency.
Round one can be the concept as a PDF, round two the staging site, round three the final build. One HopBack, one link, one record from first sketch to launch.
Print and packaging proofs work the same way on uploaded artwork.
Feedback is the comments. Proofing is the process around them: numbered rounds, a deadline, and a recorded approval. HopBack gives you both from the same link.
The review itself is the record. It stays accessible after approval, with every round, comment and the sign-off, from the same link. Share the link with anyone who needs to see it.
They can leave new feedback in a new round. The approved round stays locked as it was, so the record of what was signed off is never altered.
Yes. Upload the artwork and run the same rounds and approval on it.
