Three reminders
By default, the next day, after three days and after a week. You set the timing in your agency settings.
“My clients won't log in to yet another tool” is the sentence we hear most before a demo. Here is, step by step, what your client receives, sees and does. And a message ready to send them.
Journey reviewed in October 2026 against the version in production.
Your client doesn't sign up anywhere. You (or a manager at your agency) invite them, and they get an email.
If you'd rather create their access yourself, you can add them with a temporary password they'll have to change the first time they log in.
When they log in they see their home: what's waiting for them and how the service is going. Nothing from the agency, nothing from other clients.
Their menu has five entries: Home, Approvals, Content, Library and Integrations. No create buttons.
They do it on the piece itself, and what they decide is written down.
“Ready for your approval”, from your sender, with the link to the piece. In the portal it also shows up in the notifications bell.
They see the current version, the previous ones, the comments and the deadline. If they have a question, they write it in the piece's thread and your team gets it.
Two options: approve or request changes. To request changes they have to write what to change; without a note it won't send. Postponing isn't up to them: that's your team's call.
Their name, the date and the version they approved or sent back. Your team gets the notification and, if they asked for changes, the note goes into the history as a numbered round.
They get the email again and repeat. Every delivery is a new version and the previous ones are still there.
All of the above works the same in the phone's browser.
The same thing they do today on WhatsApp, but on the piece and in writing.
A sample piece with made-up data and the two buttons your client will see. You play the client. Nothing is sent anywhere.

PendingLaura M. has received the “Ready for your approval” email with the link to this piece. They see v3, the previous versions, the comments and the deadline.
Postpone isn't there: only your team can do that. And in the real portal your client does all of this from their phone too.
The portal reminds them for you. Nobody on your team has to write to them.
By default, the next day, after three days and after a week. You set the timing in your agency settings.
There is a maximum number of sends: it doesn't flood their inbox.
When the reminders run out, the account manager and you get the alert. That's when you decide whether to call.
How long each client takes to approve, on average, and which pieces are overdue. Every figure opens its pieces.

Everything comes from your agency's sender, in their language. The wording of each email is changed from your agency settings.
“Ready for your approval”, with the link to the piece.
The reminders above, and nothing more than that.
The weekly summary of their space, by email.
An automatic greeting on their birthday and one month, six months and a year after you started working together.
Our brand appears neither in the emails nor in the portal. To your client, the portal is yours.
So your client logs in with peace of mind, and so does your team.
So you don't promise it.
There is no app in the stores. It's the web, adapted to phones, in the browser.
Alerts arrive by email and in the portal's bell.
They log in with email and password. There is no two-factor authentication either.
There is no general chat: conversations live on each piece, in its thread.
The portal is in Spanish and English; each person picks their own.
If your client needs any of these, tell us on the call: better to know before we set anything up.
This is what affects your client. The full list of what the product doesn't do, with what there is instead, is in What it doesn't do (yet).
And the answer you can give them.
The ones on this page and on the others, together: every question, on one page
Hi [name]. From [date] we'll be approving pieces in our portal, at [clients.youragency.com], instead of over WhatsApp and email. You'll get an invitation from this same sender: open the link, choose a password and you're in. There is nothing to install.
When a piece is ready you'll get an email with the link. You open it, see the version and the comments, and you have two options: approve, or request changes by writing what to change. It works the same from your phone. If it slips your mind, the portal reminds you; we won't need to chase you.
On your home you'll also see this month's calendar, what's planned for the next 30 days and the files we share with you, and every Monday you'll get a summary by email. If you'd like someone else from your team to have access too, send me their email and I'll invite them.
In the demo we show you the portal with sample data, from the agency's view and from the client's.
