TOOLS & INTEGRATIONS
Drag the handle to compare your old chaotic workflow vs. a streamlined approval process
Click anywhere on the asset to pin the comment with feedback. Use 5 annotation shapes for more precise feedback and react to comments with replies and reactions.
Clients can switch between the current file and any previous version to confirm their changes landed. Four comparison modes (side-by-side, fader, difference, and toggle) make it impossible to miss what changed.
You decide whether clients can forward the review link to their colleagues fpr every design review cycle or asset. Every open, comment, and decision is still tracked in your timeline.
Clients don’t have to be at the desktop to give great feedback. Approval Studio supports mobile review and approval with the exact same features on the go.
For packaging and print clients, Approval Studio goes deeper to make design review easier. Verify barcodes, separate colors, and measure distances with no extra software.
Depending on the workflow, choose one of many versions or click Approve or Reject to make a decision on the current one. The system automatically records who, when, and how for audit.

A client proofing tool is software that lets designers and agencies share files with clients for review, annotation, and approval without using email. Clients view the file in a browser, leave pinned comments directly on the design, and formally approve or request changes. The designer keeps a full audit trail of every round.
No. With Approval Studio, clients receive a short link (aprv.io/xxxxx) and open it directly in their browser, no account, app download, or password required. They can annotate, comment, and approve the file immediately. You can, however, add an optional password if the file is sensitive.
You upload your file, generate a review link, and send it to your client by email, Slack, or any other channel. Your client clicks the link, opens the file in the review tool, leaves annotated comments by clicking directly on the design, and clicks Approve or Request Changes when done. You receive a timestamped PDF proof report automatically.
Yes. Clients can use Approval Studio’s version comparison mode to view the current version alongside a previous revision, helping them confirm that their requested changes were made. Four comparison modes are available: side-by-side, fader, difference, and toggle.
Approval Studio supports 24+ file formats for client review, including PDF, AI, PSD, TIFF, JPEG, PNG, GIF, BMP, DOCX, XLSX, PPTX, and MP4 (video). Clients can review all these formats in the browser without any software installed on their end.
Yes. You can invite multiple external reviewers to the same file, or your client can forward the review link to colleagues. All collaborators can discuss the design live in the tool, without refreshing. Every reviewer’s annotations are tracked separately in the timeline, and you can see who left which comment and when.
Yes, external client reviews are available on all Approval Studio plans, including Lite ($60/month for 5 users). Higher plans (Pro, Pro XL) add workflow automation, which lets approval from a client trigger the next stage in your process automatically.
Email feedback is unstructured, clients describe changes in words without a visual anchor, and version history gets buried in threads. A client proofing tool keeps all feedback pinned to the exact location on the file, maintains a complete version history, tracks whether the client opened the file, and produces a signed proof report. The result is fewer revision rounds and a clear record of what was approved.
