Bug reports

Show the bug.
The captions explain it.

Record the repro in your browser, publish it, paste the link into the ticket. The transcript captures what you said while it was happening. Your developer sees it without a Zoom call.

Free account. No card. No install.

The problem

Writing a bug report is hard.
Showing one takes fifteen seconds.

Three paragraphs. Still needs a demo call.
You describe the bug in precise detail. You attach a screenshot. The developer still comes back with "can you just show me?" The written format doesn't carry the context.
The bug only reproduces under very specific conditions.
"Click here, then scroll, then open the modal in less than two seconds, then resize." Writing that down accurately is genuinely hard. Showing it takes fifteen seconds.
Sydney reports it. Amsterdam fixes it. Nobody's awake at the same time.
Async bug handoffs collapse when the only artifact is a ticket. The developer needs to watch the repro, not reconstruct it from notes.
The ticket gets reassigned. The context disappears.
The new person picks up a bug with three sentences of notes and has to start from scratch. The original reporter has moved on.

How Pixelmatic helps

The bug report is the recording.

Record where the bug lives
Most bugs are in the browser. The recorder is in the browser. No screen mirroring, no capture software, no extra steps. Reproduce the bug, hit record, show it.
What you said becomes searchable text
Every recording is automatically transcribed, published or not. Walk through the bug out loud ("so here I click this, and you can see the state doesn't update") and that becomes a searchable caption alongside the video.
Paste a link. No account required to watch.
Publish, copy the link, paste it into Linear or Jira or Notion. The developer opens it in their browser. No Pixelmatic account, no login, no "open in app" prompt. Or keep the recording private and share it with only the people you pick. The choice is yours.
Recordings save locally first
The recording saves to your device before anything uploads. You won't lose a repro to a network hiccup or a failed upload. Cloud sync is a separate, retryable step.

Where this pays off

Bugs worth recording.

  • Reproducing a bug that only shows under specific user flows
  • Cross-timezone handoffs between QA and engineering
  • Attaching a repro to a Linear, Jira, or GitHub issue
  • Escalating a customer-reported bug with visual proof
  • Tagging a repro with its ticket number or bug category so you can find it months later
  • Building a library of past bug repros for pattern matching
