Cayda vs Markup.io

The Markup.io alternative billed by the person, not the MarkUp.

Markup.io loads your site through a proxy in an iframe and charges by how many MarkUps you create each month, from $79 for fifty. Cayda runs on your own domain, bills a base fee plus the teammates who accept an invite, and never counts how many pages you review.

Why teams choose Cayda over Markup.io

Priced per collaborator, nothing else

A base fee covers you; each accepted teammate is $5 to $6. Review a page once or a thousand times, it costs the same. Markup.io meters MarkUps created per month and charges $4 for each one over the allowance.

Your real site, not a copy

One script tag on your own domain. Notes anchor to the real element on the real page, so they do not go missing when content moves, and pages behind login work without a browser extension.

Notes become tickets where you work

Slack on Pro. Jira, Asana and Linear natively on Team. A note on the page becomes an issue in your tracker without a Zapier recipe in between.

Context captured automatically

Every note automatically records a screenshot, page URL, browser, OS and viewport. Screen recording on the Team plan. No extension needed to capture what the reviewer saw.

How Markup.io approaches it

Markup.io, part of Ceros, is a creative review platform that also supports websites. A site is fetched through its proxy servers and rendered in an iframe; its help centre covers firewall whitelisting, sites that block iframes, and pins that go missing when the underlying content is updated or moved. Plans are usage based: fifty MarkUps a month for $79, up to six hundred on Business, with users unlimited and each MarkUp over the allowance billed at $4. Native integrations are Slack, Microsoft Teams, Zapier and Loom.

Cayda is a website feedback tool for the team that owns the site: the review happens on your domain, notes anchor to real elements, the tracker integrations are native, and the bill tracks headcount rather than usage.

The bottom line

For a team reviewing live sites and web apps, Cayda gives you pinned notes on the real page, automatic context, a triage board and native Jira, Asana and Linear, with a free plan and a bill that never spikes because you reviewed more pages this month. Start free on two sites.
