An open source, privacy first bug reporting tool

Today, I am excited to announce the public beta of tagbug.dev - an open source, private first tool that simplifies bug reporting and website feedback for non-technical users.

TagBug consists of two parts:

  • A browser extension that lets you create website feedback and bug report.
  • A dashboard that lets you manage the issue created by the browser extension.

TagBug is used to help QA, product managers and developers. It makes bug reporting and website feedback easy for everyone in your team.

Let's dive into what you can currently do with TagBug.

TagBug allows you to submit bug report with important technical details (system information, console log, network requests) developers need to identify and fix the issue.
You can create an issue with annotated screenshot, video recording. You can also create an issue with instant replay that captures what happens within the last few minutes in your website.

Private first

Every issue created in your personal workspace is private to you by default. Every issue created in your team workspace is private to your team by default. You can share an issue with others if you want.

Your website's UI issues need a clear visual context. You can use TagBug to annotate your screenshot with lines, circles, and text.

Video Recording

UX issue is hard to explain in text or a single image. You can record a video to show the issue in action.

You can record a single tab, or your entire browser window.

Instant Replay

Instant replay captures what happens within the last few minutes in your website. It's like a time machine that can go back to the time your issue happened.

Data Rich Issue Reporting

When creating an issue, you can capture network request and console logs. This eliminates the need for back and forth communication between QA/product manager and engineering.
