After using http://bugherd.com for a while, I find this uncomfortably close. The icon-based side nav, the drag selection, the overall colours and theming. I'm not making any accusations, but I think it needs to be said that it's the first thing I thought of.

I appreciate the sentiment, but I do think it's quite a bit different to what we at BugHerd do. BugHerd is designed to run ON your site, rather than your site running IN BugHerd.

We originally went down the awesomebox path, but as soon as we started dealing with server side code it caused issues. We run on your production/staging environment meaning you get your app running in the wild.

Hey, Brendan from Awesomebox here - I've actually never used Bugherd before (though I've heard great things!), so I don't know what it looks like enough to copy. As toast76 says, we also do very different things.
