Version after version, without losing the thread

Every iteration leaves a trace. The final version does not get mixed up with the drafts, and the flows trigger what comes next when a piece moves on.

Piece approved

From intake to publication

Material comes in, gets built in Studio on top of what is already indexed, is commented on the piece itself, goes through the approval circuit that client asked for, and ships. Five stages on one surface, so no step depends on someone remembering to chase the next person.

The flow belongs to the client, not the team

Some clients approve in sequence: copy first, then design, then legal. Others go in parallel. Some have a strict SLA, others get to it when they can. Configure each client’s flow once and it applies to every piece, so your team stops memorising preferences.

Approvals that move the rest of the project

When a piece is approved or rejected, it triggers whatever follows: send the email, schedule the release, move the asset into production, notify the team (see how planning works). The approval is the event; everything else moves on its own.

Traceability and rules without code

Who approved what, when, on which version and with what comment — all linked to the piece rather than a side thread in Slack (see the review canvas). On top of that, whatever rules you want: escalate to the manager after 48 hours of silence, generate the monthly report, notify the account team. All configurable from the interface.
