Pinpoint for Safari

Features

Pinpoint turns any web page into a review surface for AI coding assistants. Toggle Pinpoint on for the current site, then point at any element to comment on it. Comments collect into a panel and persist per-origin across reloads. When you're ready, hand off the whole batch as a single structured Markdown brief - element selectors, component names, your comments, and any screenshots - to paste straight into your assistant. - Comment on any element; numbered pins stay anchored on the page. - Capture a screenshot of an element and mark it up (rectangles, arrows, text, blur/redact, numbered counters, crop) before attaching. - Measure spacing, sample colors, and inspect typography (size / line-height / weight / inferred Tailwind utility). - Hand off every comment as one agent-ready Markdown brief, copied to your clipboard.
