Pepper Flow Digital Review

Pepper Flow Digital Review is an add-on product that allows users to annotate on and send web content for review using a Chrome browser extension. 

• Web pages can be configured as a new document type. Once added, users can start jobs on web content from the extension.
• The extension has much of the same functionality available in the Pepper Flow Viewer, but optimized for web review. Functionality includes:
  • Starting and canceling jobs
  • Completing tasks
  • Managing assignees
  • Annotating with the annotation dot tool
  • Manually adding supporting documents
  • Completing details

• The extension introduces an updated annotation experience. Outside of annotation dot placement, all annotation activity, such as replying and resolving, takes place in the side panel.
• The extension also introduces a new screenshot tool. The tool gives users the option to take a screenshot of a full web page or the visible portion of a web page. Alternatively, users can upload their own screenshots. Screenshots can be deleted and viewed, and they are stored in the Pepper Flow Viewer for record-keeping.
• Users can download screenshots of a web page from the extension, the Library, and the Viewer. 
• Jobs for web pages added through the extension can be accessed from the Library, Jobs board and notifications. When clicking on web content, users see an on-leave modal until they opt out.
