How GoProof works

General

What is GoProof?

GoProof is an online proofing software solution, developed to allow creative and marketing teams to manage, review, comment, and approve creative projects and design content. GoProof integrates seamlessly into Adobe Creative Cloud, monday.com, Asana, and leading project management tools, and supports a broad selection of creative files to suit every team.

What is online proofing?

Online proofing is the process of sharing creative content, usually graphic designs, brochures, website or animations, for review and approve via an online browser. Content is uploaded for approval, and then submitted to team members or clients and stakeholders for comments and feedback. Read the definitive guide to online proofing here: What is Online Proofing?

What file formats does GoProof support?

With GoProof, users can proof all forms of graphic content, from pngs, jpegs, eps and pdf, to sources files such as INDD and PSD. Videos and animations can also be uploaded to the system, along with the ability to proof web pages. Every type of creative content has been considered.

How secure is GoProof?

GoProof uses secure cloud architecture, access controls, and SSL encryption to protect your creative assets, feedback data and account information.

What can I expect from a GoProof demo?

GoProof demos include a live walkthrough of GoProof's features, taking into account your specific workflow needs, with allocated time for Q&As.

Using GoProof

Can users review content without Adobe software?

Clients, stakeholders and reviewers can view and comment on Adobe files—like InDesign, Photoshop, and Illustrator—directly in their browser without the need for an Adobe software licence.

Do GoProof reviewers need an account to leave feedback?

Not always. Reviewers invited by email can open a proof and comment in their browser without setting up a GoProof account, although they may be offered a free one when they leave. Shared proof links ask people to sign in or create a free account first.

What’s the difference between GoProof and using email for feedback?

GoProof eliminates scattered email threads by centralizing feedback in one place, with threaded comments, real-time notifications, and version tracking.

Does GoProof provide help or support?

All GoProof users can access support and help sheets via the application dashboard. Alternatively they can raise a ticket by completing this form: Contact Support.

What is a GoProof user?

A GoProof user is defined is either a member or an admin. GoProof admins manage the GoProof account and can create or upload content to proofs, jobs, project or create tasks creators. Members can create and upload content.

Our design approval process involves too many email chains and we keep losing feedback. Can GoProof help?

Yes. GoProof replaces email-based feedback by giving every reviewer one shared space to comment and annotate directly on the proof. Feedback is centralised, threaded and attached to the exact element it refers to, so nothing gets buried in an inbox. Designers receive one consolidated list of changes instead of piecing together messages. Reviewers are notified when it is their turn, and project managers can see who has responded and who has not without sending a chaser email.

How do I know who has approved which version of a design in GoProof?

GoProof logs every decision automatically. When a gatekeeper or manager approves a proof or requests changes, the action is recorded with a timestamp and attributed to the person who made it. The project dashboard shows a stage marker for each collaborator, so you can see whether they have viewed, commented, finished reviewing or made a decision on each version. That gives you a version-by-version audit trail without asking anyone for a status update.

How does GoProof reduce the number of revision rounds?

In three main ways. Centralising feedback on the proof removes the miscommunication that comes from scattered email threads. Multi-stage workflows let internal reviewers catch issues before work reaches the client, so there are fewer surprises at final sign-off. And clients can annotate precisely on the proof in their browser without creating an account, which keeps their feedback specific and actionable.

More questions about GoProof features

Can I review video and audio in GoProof?

Yes. MP4 video proofs have a scrubber with a frame preview, and comments are tied to a point in time. Audio files such as MP3, WAV and M4A show a waveform you can zoom, so reviewers can comment on a moment or a stretch of audio. Reviewers can also leave voice notes on any comment.

What tools does GoProof have for print and packaging proofs?

Colour separations with an output preview, an ink coverage report, measure and grid tools, rulers, and a QR and barcode scanner. Reviewers can compare two versions side by side or use a visual difference view to see exactly what changed.

Which file types can I proof in GoProof?

PDFs, images, Word, PowerPoint and Excel files (converted to PDF), MP4 video, audio files, and websites by URL or as a ZIP of HTML. Adobe files from InDesign, Photoshop, Illustrator and Premiere Pro are sent from the app using the free GoProof extension. Live websites can also be captured with the GoProof extension for Chrome and Edge.

What sign-in and security options does GoProof offer?

People can sign in with email and password, Google, Microsoft or Slack, or use a passkey. Two-factor authentication works with an emailed code or an authenticator app. SAML single sign-on is available on the Pro and Enterprise plans for companies on a custom GoProof subdomain. Oppolis Software, the company behind GoProof, is ISO/IEC 27001:2022 certified.

Does GoProof have AI features?

Yes. Proof AI runs preflight checks on a proof using checklists your administrators set up, from a quick pass to an exhaustive one. There is also an AI chat for questions about your dashboard and Insights. AI features are switched on per company and run on credits.

Can I use GoProof on a phone, or in another language?

GoProof works in the browser on phones and tablets and can be installed on the home screen as an app, with a mobile proof editor for reviewing on the move. The interface is available in eight languages.

Which tools does GoProof connect to?

Adobe Creative Cloud, Figma, Canva, monday.com, Trello, Basecamp, ClickUp, Jira, Asana, Slack, Microsoft Teams and Google Calendar. For anything else there is Zapier, OttoKit and Pabbly, plus an API key for your own automations.

How do projects, jobs and deliverables work in GoProof?

Work is organised into clients (or spaces), projects and sections. A job is a structured piece of creative work with a brief, a deadline, proofs and assets attached. When it is finished, the final files are added as deliverables, which you can share with guests on the project or through expiring download links.

Can I plan work as a Kanban board, table or calendar?

Yes. Every project can be switched between Kanban, Table and Calendar views. Kanban cards show status and counters for new comments and mentions. The calendar shows task dates, job deadlines and proof deadlines, and you can drag an entry to reschedule it. Filters narrow the list by status, person, section or new activity.

What dashboards and reports does GoProof offer?

Each person can build a dashboard from widgets such as KPI tiles, charts, a needs-attention list and an activity feed, then save the layout and share it with colleagues. The Insights page lets you pick measures, group by project, client, user or status, and drill down to the proofs behind a figure. Reports can be saved and the table downloaded as CSV. A daily, weekly or monthly digest email is also available.

How does GoProof notify people about feedback and deadlines?

Through an in-app activity feed, email, direct messages in Slack or Microsoft Teams, and push notifications on phones where GoProof is installed. Each person chooses which email and chat notifications they receive. Reminders go out ahead of deadlines, and overdue reviews are flagged.

Can I send an email into GoProof as a proof?

Yes. Each company has its own email address for this. On the upload screen for a job you copy the address and subject line, send the email, and GoProof turns it into a PDF proof at desktop or mobile size, ready for review. This suits email campaigns and newsletters.

Can I connect GoProof to my own tools or automations?

Yes. Each user can generate an API key, and Zapier, OttoKit and Pabbly can connect GoProof to other apps, including creating jobs from them. Jobs can also be linked to work in monday.com, Asana, ClickUp, Jira and Basecamp.

Can I ask questions about my proofing data in plain English?

Yes. Ask Insights is an AI panel on the Insights page. It answers using the filters you have on screen, with suggested questions such as slowest turnaround, overdue work and on-time rate, and links to open the proofs behind an answer. A similar Ask GoProof AI chat can be added to your dashboard. Both are available to members and administrators, keep your chat history, and run on AI credits.

Does GoProof have an MCP server for AI tools?

Yes. GoProof has a read-only MCP server that lets AI tools such as Claude Desktop or Cursor look up proofs, comments, jobs, tasks and projects. Connections use a personal API key generated in GoProof, and the server cannot change anything in your account.
