Review artwork. Track every version. Get approval. Hand over the files. Keep the whole record together.
Brieft gives creatives, small teams and businesses one place for artwork, feedback, approvals and final production files — without client portals, complicated workflows or another system everyone has to learn. Software should be Brieft.
I swear they mentioned this on WhatsApp???
Brieft was built by ex-agency talent to bring file storage, review, version control, approvals, revision billing and production handoff into one simple, secure workspace — without the complexity, feature bloat or cost of enterprise software.
Stop piecing the project together from email threads, shared drives, transfer links and someone's desktop.
Every job in Brieft keeps the artwork, versions, comments, approvals and files together — organised by client and collection, from first review to final handoff.
One job. One record. Everything that happened.
Your client shouldn't need an onboarding call to say the logo needs to move 5 mm. Send a secure link — no account, no portal, no forgotten password.
Anyone can open the artwork and pin feedback exactly where they mean it — on stills, PDFs or against the moment in a video. Threads stay attached to the version they were left on.
One artwork. One conversation. Every comment in context.
Upload the next version without overwriting the last. Previous versions keep their comments and approvals, and reviewers always land on the current artwork by default.
Every version has one history. No confusion.
Decide who needs to approve — internal teammates and external clients — and how many. Brieft records the decision against a specific version, with who approved it and when.
Set X-of-Y requirements so nothing ships on a maybe. Guests approve straight from their link, no account required.
A clear approval, on the exact version, every time.
Send a personal, hard-locked link to each client, printer or stakeholder — tagged with their name and role. It emails itself and locks to the first person who opens it.
Watch each link move from Not opened to Opened to Approved, set an expiry, and control downloads per link.
See the status of every collaborator in real time.
Set your included revision rounds up front. When a project runs past them, Brieft flags the additional rounds as chargeable and rolls them into your commercial metrics.
No more absorbing scope quietly — export the numbers to CSV when finance asks, per currency.
Know what's included, and what's extra.
Brieft reads the comment thread, surfaces the tasks hiding inside it, and classifies each one as a Change (in scope) or New Work (out of scope).
Assign it to a teammate or a guest, add a due date, and it lands in their My Work.
Every comment becomes an action — nothing slips.
Group work by client, organise it into collections, and keep every asset's versions together. Everyone knows where things live.
Commercial metrics roll up cleanly per client, in an isolated, secure workspace for your team.
Client → Collection → Asset → Version.
The approved artwork and production files belong together. Brieft keeps final and source files with the job instead of splitting the handoff from everything that led to it.
Seamless production handoff. No lost files — ever.
A lot of approval platforms have grown into workflow systems — reviewer groups, approval stages, templates, automation and increasingly structured processes. Brieft is intentionally simpler.
Brieft is built for that.
Keep feedback, revisions and approvals attached to the work instead of scattered across your communication stack.
Give clients a simple place to review without giving them another project-management tool to navigate.
Know what is waiting for review, what changed and which version was actually approved.
Keep client feedback out of your inbox and keep your source files with the final job.
Make sure the file being produced is the same file that was approved.
Get the control you need without adopting a workflow system built for a 1,000-person company.
The category started with a simple problem: someone makes the work, someone else needs to review it. Then came approval workflows, stages, templates, reviewer groups and enterprise process management. Those tools make sense when you need all of that. Brieft is for when you don't.

Most approval tools charge per user. Brieft is flat for the whole team — freelancers, agency and printer included, and external reviewers are always free.
For solo creatives kicking the tyres
For a small in-house team
For teams handling more artwork & clients
For agencies with lots of clients & files
A link can be easy to use without being casually shared around forever. Clients and external stakeholders access exactly what they need — never your internal workspace. Every workspace is isolated, and files are encrypted in transit and at rest.
Keep the job together.
"I just want to know what's happening with the artwork."
Exactly.
One job. One record.
