About
I'm Dino, I built layernote.
I wanted a better and more consistent way to handle feedback on websites and designs. And for agencies, I wanted to cut the time that goes into QA. I also wanted it to look modern and still have everything you need.
The idea is one loop:
\
- You build something.\
- You get feedback on it. People pin comments on the exact element, not on a screenshot.\
- You fix it. Pull the comments into Claude Code or Cursor over MCP, or just fix them yourself.\
- The note closes with what changed, so you can see it on the page instead of reading a status.
That's it. It should be easy.
A few practical things:
\
- It works on live sites, PDFs and images.\
- Clients comment through a share link. They don't need an account.\
- Your agent gets the element, the note and the CSS behind it, so it does not have to guess.\
- On Studio and Team, every comment is also a task on a board.
One honest note: the Figma part is not open yet. Figma is still reviewing our app, so importing frames and the Figma vs live comparison are coming soon. That comparison is the piece I care about most, and it is built: it measures spacing, type and color and lets you pick which differences become comments. The moment Figma clears us, it switches on for everyone.
There's a 14-day free trial, no credit card.
I'll be here all day. Tell me what's missing or what's confusing. If you want early access to the comparison when it opens, say so here and I'll put you at the front.
Thanks for checking it out!

If you reach out to a content creator and their email is at sunsetagency.com or something — any agency sounding, you're too late. Those agencies exist to eliminate the alpha that you are trying to create. If they have a Gmail in their bio and they have 5-10K followers, good engagement, that's a really nice sweet spot.
Hire content creators, not influencers — Gmail in the bio beats agency.com
Zack's tactical screen for creators: look at the bio email. Agency emails mean the creator's pricing and earnings are already optimized against you. Gmail addresses on 5-10K-follower accounts with strong engagement are undermonetized, high-output, and willing to actually create — the real growth alpha.
There's also differentiation as distribution where just being so unique and strange like distribution just kind of takes care of itself because you're the one app that can do the thing.
Differentiation as distribution: the truly unique product gets attention by itself
The strongest distribution strategy is building something no one else can build. When your product is genuinely singular, organic coverage, word of mouth, and creator content happen without a paid media budget. Combine that with a distribution channel you're good at and you have both vectors working together.
There's a play for whatever you're stuck on.
