A Dropbox Replay alternative built around the approval.
Dropbox Replay is a video review feature inside a storage product, sold as a per-user add-on to a Dropbox plan. VoiceDeck is the opposite arrangement: a client review and approval product whose meter is storage, with team members and client reviewers unlimited on every tier.
Both let a client comment in the browser. The difference shows up in what happens after the comment — who signed off, on which version, and what it costs to add the next person to the room.
An add-on, on top of a storage plan.
As of August 2026, Dropbox publishes Replay as a paid add-on at $10 per user per month billed annually — $120 a year — or $12 per user per month billed monthly. Dropbox Basic users must upgrade to Plus or higher before buying it, and it is not available on the Family plan; Basic accounts get Replay with a limited feature set at no cost.
So the review capability is metered on people, while the storage underneath it is metered separately by the Dropbox plan. Two meters, two upgrade conversations.

A feature in a storage product, or a product about approvals.
Replay's own reviewers are free — that part is genuinely good, and the same is true here. The per-user charge lands on your side of the table: every producer, editor and account lead who needs to work in it is a paid user of the add-on.
VoiceDeck charges for storage and nothing else. Team members are unlimited, client reviewers are unlimited, and that holds on every tier including the free one — so bringing in a freelancer for one project is a decision about the work, not about the invoice.
Open the link, leave the note, sign it off.
Your client opens one link in the browser — no signup, no password, nothing to install. They are asked for a name only at the moment they first write something, and email is optional. Notes land pinned to the timecode, the region, or the PDF page, with pen, arrow and box drawings attached to the comment.
When the next cut goes up as a new version, the earlier round stays readable, and approvals do not travel forward: each person approves each version on its own. Months later, "who signed off on which cut" is a lookup, not a debate.
Often it is already paid for.
If your team already runs on Dropbox, the files are in Dropbox and the client is in the folder, then Replay is review where the work already lives. There is no second tool to introduce, no second place for a producer to look, and a $10-per-user add-on on top of a plan you were buying anyway is a small, legible cost for a small team.
It is a particularly good answer for internal-only review — one or two editors passing cuts back and forth, where nobody needs an attributed sign-off and the round never leaves the company. That is exactly the case where a dedicated approval product is more machinery than the job requires.
Your team is already on a paid Dropbox plan and the media lives there.
Review is mostly internal, and sign-off happens in conversation rather than on the record.
The number of people who need to work in the tool is small and stable.
You want one vendor for storage, sync and review rather than a separate review subscription.
The case flips when review is client-facing, the roster of internal collaborators keeps changing, and someone will eventually have to prove who approved which version.
Switching is an afternoon.
Upload the cuts you are actively reviewing and send each client one new link. There are no client accounts to migrate, because clients never needed one on either side. Your originals stay downloadable at any time, so trying it never locks you in.
Pricing is storage-based, with unlimited members and unlimited client reviewers on every tier including Free — the live rate card is on the pricing page.
