How It Works

Four steps to clear approval

From draft to approved, every step is visible and every decision is recorded.

1

Upload your draft

Upload the document you need approved. It starts in Draft status — visible only to your team until you're ready.

Assign reviewers from your team or clients. Each reviewer is notified and gets their own review link.

Why It Matters

Email approval is
ambiguous by design

"Looks good" in an email is not a formal approval. There's no accountability, no record, and no way to prove what was agreed to. Writerflow makes approval a formal, trackable decision — not a casual email reply.

"Looks good" is not an approval

Casual email replies create ambiguity. Did "looks good" mean "approved for publication" or "I glanced at it"? Without clear states, nobody knows.

No accountability without tracking

When approvals happen over email, there's no central record. Who approved? When? Which version? The answers are buried across inboxes.

Binary decisions eliminate ambiguity

Approve or Request Changes — that's it. No "maybe," no "looks okay I guess." Every decision is clear, recorded, and tied to a specific version.

Without Writerflow
"Looks good to me!" — unclear if approved
"Did Sarah approve this?" — checking Slack

Key Capabilities

Approval decisions that
stick.

Clear approval states

Four unambiguous states: Draft, In Review, Approved, Changes Requested. Every document has exactly one status at any time.

Approval tracking

See exactly who approved, who requested changes, and when. Full accountability for every decision on every document.

Re-review workflow

When changes are requested, update the document and request re-review. Previous approvals are preserved in the history.

Approval history

Complete record of every approval decision, every change request, and every status transition. Permanent and exportable.

Final sign-off

The document owner controls when to publish. All reviewers must approve before the owner can give final sign-off and lock the document.

Instant notifications

Reviewers are notified when assigned. You're notified when they respond. No checking inboxes — decisions arrive in real time.

Stop wondering "Is this approved?"

Clear approval states, binary decisions, and full accountability — no more email thread archaeology.
