SceneNote - Free video feedback tool for editors & clients

by
Every other video review tool wants an account, an upload, or a subscription. SceneNote wants none of them. Paste a YouTube, Vimeo, or Dropbox link, share it, and collect feedback in seconds. Timestamped comments, annotations drawn on the frame, voice notes that transcribe themselves, versions, and tasks. Your reviewers never sign up. Export as CSV or EDL and every note lands as a marker in Premiere, Resolve, or Final Cut. Free because we build on links instead of hosting your video.

Hey, I'm Kiril 👋 I've been a filmmaker for 10+ years, and every time I sent a cut for feedback, two things always bugged me. My clients had to make an account just to leave feedback. And.. I was paying a monthly subscription for something I only use at the end of a project. So I built SceneNote: video feedback that's free, and needs no account from anyone. Whether you're the one editing or the one sending notes back, you know the drill. A cut goes out, and the feedback comes back as a four-minute voice note, or buried in an email chain somewhere. Messy and disorganized 🙅🏻‍♂️ Now, I know there are already tools that fix this. But every one I tried sat behind a monthly subscription, which never sat right with me. Feedback is a small, specific part of a project. It happens near the end, for a short window, and paying every month for those few days made no sense. That got me thinking: why can't this just be free? Turns out most of the cost in these tools is storage and delivery. So I skipped it entirely. SceneNote works off links. Your video stays where it already natively lives (YouTube unlisted, Vimeo, Dropbox etc) and SceneNote builds the feedback layer on top. No hosting, so no bill for you! Here's the whole thing: 1. Paste a link > share it > collect feedback 2. Leave timestamped comments or annotations on the frame. 3. Export every note into Premiere, Resolve, or Final Cut as markers. The core stays free forever and will never need an account. If people ask for heavier pro features later, those might become a paid add-on, but what you see today stays free. Feedback should be easy and frictionless, for the person giving it and the person getting it. Would love to hear what you think. Kiril

 Congrats Kiril!
The idea is great!

Is there a versioning and comparison between?

 Hey thanks Adana! Yep we built in versioning, so you can add iterations (v2, v3) on the same project and switch between. Feedback stays tied to the version it was left on.

 We haven't built comparisons (yet). Is that something you think would be helpful in your workflow? Curious to hear your workflow and see if we can implement something like this!

 great product, love seeing products that solve real problems.

 Solving our own problems haha. Appreciate it Andrew!

Looks amazing!

Was looking for something to give my editor's feedback without paying for many features I don't need!

Cheers Kiril!

 Awesome, glad to hear it Robbin! Give it a spin :)

no hosting because the video already lives on youtube/vimeo is a smart cut, not a compromise. with no reviewer login, how do you tell whose note is whose?

Pasted a Vimeo link and my reviewer left a note with a sketch in under a minute, no login wall. The Premiere marker export is the kind of feature that quietly saves an hour.
