Approval Studio

Approval Studio is online software for reviewing and signing off artwork and design files. Reviewers mark up each version, compare changes side by side and send assets through an automated approval route, with AI producing reports on the process.

What Approval Studio offers

• Markup and version comparison — annotate designs and view revisions next to each other.
• Automated workflows — route each asset through set approval stages without manual chasing.
• Website review — paste a URL to review live web pages the same way as static files.
• Colour management — tools to check that on-screen colours will match the printed result.
• Mobile apps — iOS and Android apps for reviewing away from a desk.
• Express version — a lighter edition for freelancers who need fewer features.

Who it works with

It suits creative and marketing teams that proof work with clients or colleagues. A case study describes the marketing team at Routerra using it to clear a backlog of campaign approvals that email could not keep up with.
