One system for the entire approval processScroll down
01 / The principle

Upload → Review → Comment →
Compare → Approve → Done

A clear path through every approval process.

02 / The status quo

Email. Teams. WhatsApp. PPTs. PDFs.
And somewhere in between, the approval.

The creative process is strong. The coordination in between often is not. Feedback is scattered across channels, versions get mixed up, and in the end nobody is sure what has actually been approved.

01Files are sent back and forth
02Feedback arrives through different channels
03Versions get mixed up
04Approvals are unclear

to the final approval.

Don't guess.

Before/after comparison with a slider – you decide which versions to compare with each other.
