👋 Hey, I’m Pete Bernardo, and I’m the guy building Punchli.st. I’m using this space for a behind the scenes look at product building, being a solo-founder, and everything in-between.

Getting Started

I started to create these little 30 second intros to Punchlist. I still think it is amazing that you can get a project built and shared out in just a few seconds. Here is the first one: Getting Started. I plan to record one for each of our integrations plus various parts of the app. […]

New Feature: Video Feedback

Feedback usually takes the shape of two forms: very actionable task-based feedback and then less precise directional feedback. Both are valuable and typically relative to the stage of your project. Later in a project, you will get feedback like changing an image or fixing a typo, and that feedback is often better written because you […]

New Integration and Export

We know seamlessly getting into the existing workflows of project managers is key to why it can make a huge difference in their projects. The key to that has been our integrations, and I’m happy to say that we have recently added Wrike to our list, which already includes Asana, Trello, Jira, Clubhouse, YouTrack, and […]

Integrations: Github, Clubhouse, and YouTrack

Our goal with Punchli.st has always been to make the life a project manager easier. Gathering feedback to wrap up a project is often the most frustrating part of a project because you are often asking a client to do something they are not used to doing. Our first step was to make giving feedback […]

Feature: Screenshots

Punchli.st is most often used while a website is continuously changing. The beauty of our tool is that the feedback is never against a version of the website that is outdated. Previously, we often saw with screenshots or pdfs; feedback would come back after changes were made or would be conflicting with someone else’s feedback. […]

Small Update: Sort Order

Depending on what you are trying to accomplish the way items are sorted on a page could confuse things. Recently we added two new ways to sort items in a Punchli.st project. First, you can now sort by position on the page. So regardless of when the feedback was given the list will show all […]

Integrations: Asana, Trello, and Jira

Gathering feedback on a web project quickly is fantastic, but if getting that feedback means a tedious amount of work to organize it in your project management tool for your team, it can feel counterproductive. Recently we launched direct integrations with Asana, Trello and Jira. Three of the more common task management systems. Now when […]

File/Photo Upload

One of the main goals with Punchlist is to help project managers stay on top of everything they need to get a project done. Keeping track of documents and files is really hard. Then knowing what photo is for a certain section or copy for a particular page adds to the complexity. Happy to say […]

Feature Update: Rich Text Editor

Being able to give clear concise feedback has a lot to do with how you can format your comment. We’ve updated our comment box to now support Bold, Italics, Bullets, & Inline Links. We considered adding more formatting but it is a fine line between being helpful and distracting. We’ll see how this goes and […]

New Feature: @Mentions

Earlier this year we rolled out team accounts so organizations could share their subscription with the rest of their team. This allowed organizations to have project managers and team members. Where PMs could create and manage projects. Now I’m happy to roll out the next step in this feature line. You can now mention anyone […]
