# layernote

> layernote is an annotation tool for websites and design files. Feedback is pinned to the page element it is about, or to a spot on an image, a PDF page or a moment in a video. Clients review from a share link without an account, and the team fixes each note by hand or hands it to AI over MCP: Claude connects by URL, coding agents with a token, and each note is closed with what changed. Frames imported from Figma get the same pins, so the design itself is reviewed too.
