We use Moqups (moqups.com) extensively for quick scratch-pad designs. Moqups includes commenting tools and collaboration. What are the benefits of NextUX over Moqups?
The screenshot feature looks helpful, but taking screenshots isn't really a pain point for us as there are a ton of tools that do this for us and make it easy to drop into Moqups (including a Moqups chrome extension that does exactly this). If you say scrapped my entire site, took screenshots of everything, and gave me a digital copy to work off of, that would be interesting. Alternatively, if your design tools were directly embedded into the site, that would also be really interesting.
These are both big asks, and they might not be feasible, but the more you can close the gap between taking an existing site and turning it into a design space, the more attractive a tool like this would be for our org.
I've noticed that the apps listed above are often too prescriptive or too complicated. My goal is to create a simple tool that lets you quickly provide feedback and iterations on websites and web apps. I think of NextUX as similar to Loom but for design mockups.
In my workflow, I typically include a NextUX link along with an exported image in my product management software (Trello). I describe the changes I made contextually with comments in the design. Often, the design looks hacked together and incomplete but it's just enough to communicate a change. My focus with NextUX is to make the iteration process faster.
