Hey HN, I'm one of the founders of Modfy.video - we just shipped Anno.so which lets you add timestamped comments and annotations (drawings, scribbles, notes) to videos & other media files.

We currently use it to add comments and markup to Loom videos about dev problems we share among our engineering team, it’s been a great help.

Anno.so supports uploaded videos, audio, YouTube videos, Loom videos, SoundCloud audio. It’s free to use with no sign-up required.

This is a project we spun out from a video editor we’re currently working on https://modfy.video if interested.

Hey OP great work. I’m curious on the metrics and statistics, how much of people that consume media, use annotation? How's the impact?

Thanks! It's less about those that consume and more about the creation process, giving feedback/thoughts while working on a video or a song.

Also we use it internally to share looms with our eng team, where we leverage timestamped comments and annotations to enhance the sharing and discussion of ideas

Is it open source? If not, is there any way to integrate with you?
