Comment labels

Written by Gemma

Comment labels help reviewers quickly categorize feedback on a proof.

Use labels to make feedback easier to organize, filter, prioritize, and action. Labels are especially useful for complex projects involving multiple departments or stakeholders.

What are comment labels?

Comment labels are customizable tags that can be applied to comments during review.

Labels help identify the type of feedback being given, such as:

  • Design change

  • Copy update

  • Accessibility

  • Compliance

  • Legal

  • Approved

  • Urgent

Example labels

Enterprise teams can create labels that match their own review workflows and terminology.

Note: Comment labels can not be applied on private comments. You must be able to edit the comment to be able to apply a comment label.

Filtering comments by label

You can filter comments by label. This makes it easier to:

  • Review a particular category of feedback

  • Focus on urgent changes

  • Work through comments by department or workflow stage.

Best practices for comment labels

For the best reviewer experience:

  • Keep label names short and clear

  • Avoid creating too many similar labels

  • Use colors thoughtfully to help reviewers scan feedback quickly.
