Marker.io is for developers who need evidence; BugHerd is for agencies reviewing design files. Both keep the reporting client free and unlimited. Marker.io attaches replay, console logs and network requests from Team, $149 a month billed annually. BugHerd captures a screenshot and never the console, but reviews Figma designs, PDFs and images, with unlimited projects.

Marker.io is a widget and browser extension aimed at agencies reporting bugs on client sites, priced on three axes at once: seats, projects and page views. Reporters are a free role with no dashboard who follow their own issue from a link. Session replay, console logs, network requests and the Jira integration all start at Team. Its help centre states it has no built-in screen recording and suggests attaching a Loom link, and its MCP server is documented as open to every plan while in beta.
BugHerd is a pin-on-the-page feedback tool for agencies and studios, sold by team member with clients thrown in free. Feedback pins to the element on a live website, a Figma design, a PDF or an image, and every plan carries unlimited client users and unlimited projects. It captures a screenshot with the browser, the operating system and the URL, and the reporter can record a video. Session replay and console capture are not offered on any plan; LogRocket or FullStory sessions can be linked through an integration.

The third option
Notarus keeps the premise both tools share, that the person reporting never pays, and moves the evidence to the free plan. Session replay, console logs, network requests and the environment arrive with every report on the free plan, the reporter can record the screen from the same widget, and the plan carries unlimited seats and 5 projects. Page views have a published ceiling on each plan, past which new replay pauses for the month while feedback keeps arriving. A named client access follows a project with its own key and is never a member of your organisation.
What it lacks is BugHerd's breadth of surface. Feedback is taken on a live web page only: no Figma file, no PDF, no image and no mobile SDK. There is no Zendesk or Intercom integration either, and no separate agency plan of the kind Marker.io sells.
Seats never move the bill, page views past a plan's ceiling pause new replay rather than adding a charge, and the three amounts are on the pricing page rather than behind a sales call.
On an annual bill at the entry tier, yes by a little: Marker.io's Starter is $39 a month billed annually for three users against BugHerd's Standard at $42 for five members. Monthly, the order flips, $59 against $50. The real difference is what the next step costs: replay and console capture on Marker.io mean Team at $149 a month billed annually, while Jira on BugHerd means Premium at $125.
No. BugHerd's pricing page does not list console logs, network requests or session replay on any plan; what it captures automatically is a screenshot with the browser, the operating system and the page. Marker.io attaches all three from its Team plan and not on Starter.
BugHerd can: video feedback recorded by the reporter is listed on every plan. Marker.io cannot natively; its help centre states there is no built-in screen recording and suggests recording with another tool and attaching the link.
Yes, and it is the premise both tools are built on. Marker.io calls them reporters, a free and unlimited role with no dashboard who follow their issue from a link. BugHerd calls them client users, unlimited on every plan, and charges only for members. The difference is that BugHerd's projects are also unlimited, while Marker.io counts projects and page views.
Both do, and both hold Jira above the entry plan. Marker.io's Jira integration and two-way issue sync start on Team, $199 a month or $149 billed annually, while its Starter already connects GitHub, Trello, Asana, ClickUp, Monday and Linear. BugHerd's Jira, Asana, Linear, ClickUp and Monday integrations sit on Premium, $150 a month or $125 billed annually; its Standard plan connects Trello, Slack and GitHub. On an annual bill BugHerd's Jira step is the cheaper of the two.
