About This Automation
Deliverable review cycles require project managers to manually route designs to reviewers, monitor feedback across email, chat, and design tools, and consolidate notes into actionable briefs. This fragmented process creates delays, loses feedback, and consumes hours of administrative work per cycle.
Automation identifies the right reviewers for each deliverable type, routes requests in parallel with clear deadlines, collects feedback from all channels, and generates a consolidated brief automatically.
Key features:
Route review requests automatically to the correct stakeholders based on project type and deliverable category
Collect feedback from design tools, email, and chat in a single consolidated view
Deduplicate and organize feedback by theme or priority without manual aggregation
Escalate missing approvals and send reminders to reviewers who have not yet responded
Generate structured feedback briefs for designers with revision priorities and deadlines
Log approval status and timestamps in your project tracker for compliance and audit trails

Companies Report This
1
Feedback scattered across channels
Reviewers provide feedback via Figma comments, email, and Slack threads; project managers spend 35+ minutes manually consolidating notes into a single document.

2
Approval chasing and reminders
Project managers manually track who has approved and send repeated reminders to missing reviewers, often extending cycle time by 2-3 days.

3
Manual reviewer identification
Project managers check project briefs and team rosters to determine which stakeholders should review each deliverable, varying by project and deliverable type.
53%
4
Feedback loss and duplication
Comments are missed or duplicated across channels, resulting in incomplete feedback briefs and 60-70% accuracy in captured notes.

5
Manual approval status tracking
Project managers update spreadsheets or trackers with approval timestamps and conditions, creating a lag between approval and record.

1. Deliverable Marked Readytrigger
Automation detects when a designer marks a deliverable as ready for review or, or sends a trigger message.
2. Fetch Project and Reviewer Data
Automation queries to retrieve the project record, deliverable type, and the list of required reviewers for this project.
3. Create Centralized Review Board
Automation creates a shared form or Google Form linked to the deliverable, with fields for feedback, approval status, and reviewer name. A unique review link is generated.
4. Route Review Requests in Parallel
Automation sends a message or email to each required reviewer with the deliverable link, the review form, and a deadline. All reviewers receive their request simultaneously.
5. Monitor and Escalate Approvals
Automation tracks responses in real time. If a reviewer has not submitted feedback by 80 percent of the deadline, a reminder is automatically sent. If the deadline passes without approval, the project manager is notified.
6. Consolidate Feedback into Summary
Once all reviewers have submitted or the deadline passes, automation pulls all feedback from the review form, organizes it by theme, and generates a structured summary document.
7. Log Approval Record and Notify Designer
Automation updates the project record with approval status, timestamps, and reviewer names. A notification is sent to the designer with the feedback summary and next steps.
Everything you need to know before mapping this process.
Automation sends escalation reminders to non-responders and notifies the project manager so they can follow up manually if needed. The workflow can be configured to proceed after a set number of reminders or to hold for a final approval.
