Most revisions spiral out of control for a few key reasons:
Clients aren’t clear about what they want, and designers aren’t sure what they meant.
Feedback gets lost across multiple emails, Slack messages, or PDF comments.
Clients don’t see what was already changed, leading to repeat requests.
The wrong version is reviewed—or worse, approved.
There’s no system in place to manage who is responsible for final sign-off.
These are all solvable problems, and GoProof solves them elegantly.
GoProof offers a wide range of markup tools including pins, arrows, boxes, highlights, and strikethroughs—so clients can make their requests clearly and visually.
Instead of reading a vague note like “Can you move that thing a bit?”—you get a precise instruction: highlight this element, move it here, change the colour.
That clarity alone reduces a huge amount of back-and-forth.
Each piece of feedback lives in a threaded comment, showing who said what and when. This keeps discussions on track and avoids misunderstandings—especially when multiple reviewers are involved.
If a client wants to change text in a document, they can simply highlight the original, enter the replacement, and the designer can click once to insert the new text. This avoids errors and ensures consistency.
Esmark Finch, a leading design and production agency in Ireland, faced the challenge of juggling fast-paced creative delivery with client expectations.
“GoProof cut our turnaround times significantly,” says the Esmark Finch team. “Clients give clearer feedback, and our designers stay in their tools.”
Their team now gets fewer rounds of amends per project—because clients see exactly what they’re getting and provide clear, actionable feedback. Read the Esmark Finch case study
One of the most common causes of revision overload is managing feedback via email. GoProof removes that pain by centralizing everything:
No more group emails with unclear responsibilities.
No more wondering if someone replied “all” or just “you.”
No more losing feedback in your inbox.
Instead, all comments live on the proof itself, in one place, for everyone to see. You can even assign reviewer roles, ensuring the final say comes from the right person—not just the loudest.
How many times have you been asked: “Didn’t we already change that?”
With GoProof, you can show your client exactly what’s changed. Its version comparison tool lets you view any two versions side-by-side, so clients don’t ask for something that’s already been done—or suggest a change you’ve already rejected. And if something goes wrong? You can roll back to an earlier version in a click.
GoProof lets internal teams pre-approve content before the client ever sees it. This lets you catch inconsistencies, polish the design, and avoid sending anything half-baked for review—saving revisions before they start.
You can also set deadlines and reminders to keep internal and external reviewers on track, nudging them if they haven’t responded within the set timeframe.
GoProof structures your creative review process with accountability in mind. Each proof has an activity timeline showing:
When it was sent
Who has viewed or commented
What’s been changed
Who has final sign-off
This means fewer misunderstandings and no more duplicated or conflicting feedback.
With clear feedback tools, version tracking, and approval workflows, GoProof helps reduce amends while improving creative quality and client satisfaction.
