- Add a Comment on a WebsitePin a structured comment (a 'heurio') on any live website element with the Heurio Chrome extension — including a note, suggestion, severity, and optional guideline reference.
- Invite Team MembersInvite teammates to your Heurio project by email with 'Can edit' or 'Can view' permissions — from either the Chrome extension or the web app — for shared visual feedback on any live website.
- Browser & Comment ViewSwitch between Comment View (click any element to add a heurio) and Browser View (navigate the live site with all heurios visible) in the Heurio Chrome extension.
- Heuristic EvaluationRun a heuristic evaluation on any live website using Heurio's built-in guidelines — Nielsen, Dieter Rams, Shneiderman, Weinschenk & Barker, and more — directly from the Chrome extension.
- Change Screen SizeReview your website at desktop, tablet, or mobile sizes from inside the Heurio extension. Each heurio also captures the exact viewport it was created at for context.
- Extension & Web AppHeurio has two interfaces: a Chrome extension for capturing visual feedback on live websites and a web app for managing projects, teams, and reviews across the organization.
- Heurio in Incognito ModeEnable the Heurio Chrome extension in Incognito mode to review websites in private browsing sessions — useful for staging environments, logged-out flows, and isolated profiles.
