Description
Simple Admation is a marketing approval workflow and project management platform built for marketing teams, creative agencies and regulated organisations in banking, insurance, health and retail — where compliance, version control and audit trails are non-negotiable.
The platform manages the full creative production lifecycle from structured brief to final approved asset in one system, eliminating the email threads, shared drives and disconnected tools that create version confusion, approval delays and compliance failures.
Marketing project management: structured brief templates capture all requirements before creative work begins. Task scheduling runs against live resource capacity, with campaign calendars, real-time dashboards and Gantt-style timelines giving managers full visibility across every active project.
• Approval workflow: assets route through sequenced, multi-level approval pathways. Stakeholders annotate directly online — print, digital, video and HTML — with all feedback consolidated in one view. Automated reminders, batch approvals and forwarding tools reduce high-volume review cycle costs.
• Online proofing: side-by-side revision comparison and consolidated feedback management give teams a single source of truth across every review cycle.
• Compliance: tamper-proof audit trail records every review action and approval decision with timestamps and reviewer attribution. Mandatory checklists enforce compliance steps before sign-off.
• Resource management: live resource planner, time tracking, skill-based scheduling and workload dashboards.
Used by Bupa, Spotlight, NIB, RACV, HESTA, NIB, Hollard, Woolworths, Mondelez, Spotlight and Tourism Australia.
Description
Approval Studio is an online proofing software that allows you to streamline your workflow and enable a fast and effective artwork approval process.
Approval Studio is a proofing tool that allows users to annotate assets, compare versions, chat online, and invite external reviewers (e.g. clients) to approve or reject the artwork.
On a dashboard, users can organize their assets according to the aims or habits adapted to using views, like Kanban, List, Folder, Vertical, and Mansory. The project menu allows users to track progress, upload new versions, generate reports, share the assets with all the required reviewers, and even upload or review the reference documents. Furthermore, users can participate in ongoing discussions, tied with the project, or see a timeline to make sure everything is done promptly.
Many app integrations like Slack, Adobe Creative Cloud, Zapier, and Shopify allow you to set up a perfect artwork approval process for you and your team.
Choose one of the available plans, tailored to fit each company's budget and workflow.
Move your asset proofing to the next level!
