Overview
Filestage is an online proofing platform designed to centralise feedback, track asset versions, and streamline review workflows for marketing, creative, production, and compliance teams. The software provides a single hub where internal teams, external clients, and stakeholders can collaborate, review files, and submit approval decisions without relying on fragmented communication channels such as long email chains or messaging apps. Key capabilities include automated error detection and Review Agents that scan creative assets for typos, broken links, technical issues, brand guideline inconsistencies, and compliance risks before reviewers access the files.
Users can upload various file formats including PDFs, artwork, videos, and live websites, and add contextual comments directly on top of the files using highlights and drawing annotations. The platform automatically logs every review decision as it occurs, establishing a traceable and defensible audit trail or system of evidence. Teams can set due dates, send automatic reminders, and track file statuses via a clear dashboard.
Filestage integrates with existing project management, content creation, and messenger tools such as Microsoft Teams and Slack, alongside custom integration options via Zapier. It suits marketing departments, creative agencies, and production teams seeking to reduce revision loops, eliminate version confusion, and deliver content securely. Security features include enterprise-grade encryption, ISO 27001-certified infrastructure, password-protected links, and email verification.
