Symu is a browser-based design presentation and proofing tool for web designers who need to share work with clients and collect feedback in context. Users can upload projects, present designs in a browser, place comments directly on designs, manage versions, and organize projects with status-based workflows. Clickable hotspots support interactive prototypes, while fixed headers help keep presentation elements visible. Team permissions, shared folders, and unlimited team members are included in the published plan highlights, making Symu suitable for freelancers and small collaborative teams.

Pricing is structured across three paid monthly plans. Freelancer costs €5 per month, Professional costs €10 per month, and Team costs €25 per month. The published plans show activity and stats, project workflow, comment-based tasks, file storage, team management, and unlimited team members for each tier. Storage and screen limits vary by tier, so the choice between plans is tied to the scale of presentation and file needs as well as the monthly budget. The low entry price suits independent designers who want client-facing proofing without a larger platform commitment.

Symu fits workflows built around design files and browser review. Photoshop and Sketch upload plugins support design handoffs, while the Chrome extension handles screenshots and uploads. Slack is listed among the integrations; Dropbox and Google Drive are listed as coming soon. The tool’s focus is clear: present designs, collect comments, update versions, and track project status. Choose Symu for straightforward client review and freelancer-friendly pricing. Teams seeking more extensive approval controls or broader proofing depth may prefer a more specialized alternative.
