Use Case — Creative Teams

  • Review & approval
  • Asset management
  • Time tracking
  • Client delivery

Right side blends into a FlowQi project board with creative tasks and file previews. Show the creative energy of people first, then the organized workspace. Purple accents, modern, aspirational.

Sound familiar?

Great work, buried in chaos?

The client approved version 3, but the designer was already working on version 5. We sent the wrong file.
Feedback comes in through email, Slack, WhatsApp, and meetings. Half of it gets lost before the designer even sees it.
I have no idea how many hours we actually spent on this project. We just know it took way longer than quoted.
Our best designer quit because she was drowning in revisions no one tracked. We didn't see it coming.

Creative teams thrive on focus and flow. But without structure, the best talent burns out on admin — not on creating.

01 — Creative workflow

From brief to final asset — structured, not stifled

Every project follows a clear path: brief, assign, create, review, approve, deliver. Your team keeps creative freedom while the process stays visible.

  • Customizable workflow stages per project type
  • File versioning with visual diff on every revision
  • Inline markup and annotation on images and PDFs
  • Automatic status updates as tasks move through stages
Designer brief Creative workflow board showing stages: Brief > In Progress > Internal Review > Client Review > Approved > Delivered. Cards show design thumbnails (logo concepts, social visuals, packaging). A designer's photo is visible as assignee on 'In Progress' cards. One card shows 3 revision dots. Feel: creative but organized — a real studio workflow, not generic.
02 — Feedback and approvals

All feedback in one place — finally

No more hunting for comments across email, Slack, and meeting notes. Every piece of feedback lives on the task, tied to the exact version it refers to.

  • Inline comments directly on visual assets
  • Version-specific feedback threads
  • One-click approval from stakeholders
  • Revision history with before/after comparison
Designer brief A design review screen showing a poster design with inline comment pins from different team members (with real photos and names like 'Tom — Art Director', 'Eva — Client'). An approval button is visible. Shows the human interaction around creative work — people giving feedback on real design work, not an abstract UI.
03 — Creative capacity

Know your team's real bandwidth

Creative teams often run on gut feeling when assigning work. FlowQi shows real data: who is available, who is maxed out, and what is at risk.

  • Workload view per designer, writer, or producer
  • Time tracking tied to every task and project
  • Utilization reports for team leads and management
  • Drag-and-drop task reassignment
Designer brief Capacity planning view with real team photos and creative roles: 'Anna — Senior Designer' (workload bar red/overloaded), 'Bas — Motion Designer' (green/available), 'Claire — Copywriter' (yellow/busy). Weekly timeline with project blocks. Show the human side: a real team with real capacity constraints. Warm, professional, not clinical.
04 — Allocation & booking

From team allocation to invoice — nothing falls through the cracks

Project owners allocate team members to their projects. Team members can work across multiple teams simultaneously. Every hour tracked flows directly into invoicing — so no work goes unbilled and no effort is forgotten.

  • Project owners add and manage team members per project
  • Work across multiple teams and projects at the same time
  • See allocated hours vs. planned hours vs. actual hours in real time
  • Time entries link directly to services and invoicing
  • Use your personal calendar to manage availability and commitments
  • Automatic invoice-ready timesheets — nothing gets lost
Designer brief Split view: left shows a project owner's screen adding team members to a project (drag-and-drop team member cards with photos and roles into a project panel). Right shows a team member's personal dashboard with multiple project allocations visible as color-coded blocks on a weekly calendar. Below both views, a subtle flow arrow connects to an invoice preview showing tracked hours converted to line items. Show real people's faces on the team cards. Warm, professional, emphasizing the human team dynamic.

We finally know how long projects actually take. That data changed how we price our work and plan our capacity.
