REVIEW TOOL
PROJECT MANAGEMENT
TOOLS & INTEGRATIONS
Stop losing feedback in emails and establish a successful approval process. Approval Studio is the review tool for designers that puts annotations, versioning, and client approvals in one place.
The design review process is the structured workflow by which creative assets are shared with stakeholders for feedback and formal sign-off.
A well-defined design review process eliminates scattered feedback, version confusion, and missed approvals by giving every stakeholder a single place to view, comment on, and decide.
Create a project brief and upload your creative assets and references directly into Approval Studio.
Every reviewer, internal or external, opens the file in their browser and leaves feedback.
After a formal decision, approved work moves forward, and revision requests go back to the designer.
Not sure if you fall under any of those categories? Here is a checklist
for a quick assessment of your team's needs.
If you’re a solo designer looking for structure, Approval Studio gives you a dedicated client portal to share artwork, collect structured feedback, and get formal sign-off.
We make review process easier for marketing and creative teams with task assignment, custom approval workflows, notification system, and full audit trail.
The artwork review software purpose-built for FMCG, pharma, and retail teams packaging production. Verify barcodes, check CMYK values, and proof multi-page documents.
Leave pinned comments directly on the artwork. Draw, highlight, and mark up any asset across 24 file formats so designers know exactly what needs to change.
Compare versions in 4 different ways and track changes across the design review process. Never wonder which file is the latest approved one and store them in DAL .
Check color values and measure spacing without leaving the browser. This way, off-brand colors and misaligned elements won’t ever reach print or go live.
Client collaboration has never been so easy: send clients a single link so they can open the file, leave feedback, and approve, keeping the design review process moving without any IT friction.
Validate barcodes and catch copy errors automatically before sign-off. Reduce costly reprints and compliance issues on packaging, labels, and promotional materials.
Push files directly from Illustrator, InDesign, or Photoshop into review. Or connect Approval Studio to your existing stack via API for a fully integrated creative workflow.
Approval Studio review and approval software integrates seamlessly with your existing stack. Your design review process doesn’t have to be slowed down by switching between tabs and windows. Our creative review tool connects all tools in one, smooth workflow.

Review and approval software is a digital tool that allows creative teams to share design files with clients and stakeholders, collect structured feedback through annotations, and record formal approvals. Most importantly, all without relying on email. Instead of back-and-forth attachments, reviewers open a shared link, leave comments directly on the artwork, and click Approve or Request Changes. Approval Studio is review and approval software built specifically for design-heavy workflows.
Design review is the structured process of presenting a creative asset, such as a banner, brochure, or packaging design, to stakeholders for evaluation and sign-off. A thorough design review checks visual accuracy, brand compliance, copy, and technical specifications before the asset moves to production. Online design review tools like Approval Studio centralise this process so all feedback and decisions are captured in one place.
You upload your artwork, share a review link with clients or teammates, and reviewers leave annotated feedback directly on the file. There is no account required on their end. Once all feedback is addressed, reviewers click a decision button (Approve, Request Changes, or Reject), and the approval is logged with a timestamp. You can compare versions side by side to confirm every change was made before the final sign-off.
Approval Studio supports 23+ file formats, including PDF, JPEG, PNG, GIF, MP4, and multi-page documents. Specialised formats such as packaging dielines and barcode-embedded files are also supported, with a built-in barcode verification tool.
No. Clients receive a link and can review, annotate, and approve directly in their browser with no account, no download, and no friction. They can only see the project you shared with them, keeping your other work private.
Approval Studio is the only tool in its class that includes barcode verification, AI-assisted proofing, CMYK/Eyedropper colour checking, and four version comparison modes — features designed for production-level design review rather than generic project feedback. Pricing threshold is also significantly lower than Ziflow and more feature-rich than GoVisually at comparable tiers.
Yes, a good design review checklist covers: confirming file format and resolution, checking brand colours using an eyedropper, proofreading all copy, verifying barcodes (for packaging), comparing against the previous version, collecting structured annotation-based feedback, and recording the final approval. Approval Studio’s built-in tools handle every item on that checklist within a single review session.
Approval Studio starts at $60/month (LITE) and scales to $160/month (PRO) and $300/month (PRO XL) for larger teams. All plans include a 14-day free trial with no credit card required. Enterprise and custom pricing is available for high-volume packaging and print studios.
