Revision Fork.

Make sense of two reviewers' changes to the same brief.

In developmentWorking title; the name may change.
THE QUESTION

Two replies to one brief

THE NEXT STEP

A candidate or a question

The idea

Why this template exists.

Two client reviewers respond to the same short brief. One changes the message; the other changes a deadline. Revision Fork is a Notion workflow we are building to put both replies beside the shared starting point, keep open questions visible and prepare a next brief for a named approver. The full workflow is not ready for client work yet.

Intended outcome
A candidate brief with a readable change summary. Questions that still need an answer stay separate from approval.

How it is designed to work

The workflow we're building.

01

Start from one brief

Identify the version both reviewers saw before considering either reply.

02

Review the changes

Look at each proposed change and keep disagreements open for a person to resolve.

03

Prepare the next version

Draft a candidate and a short summary for the approver to review.

Who it's for

Does this sound like your work?

  • You work from a short creative brief that two client reviewers both received.
  • Their replies arrive separately, and you need to explain what happens next.
  • You want to keep a proposed brief distinct from a client-approved one.

Worth knowing

Limits and current status.

  • Designed around one shared brief and two reviewers, with a named final approver.
  • It is not full-document comparison, image annotation or automatic client approval.
  • The native Notion comparison and handoff still need further testing.

Common questions

Questions before release.

Can I use Revision Fork with clients now?

Not yet. A development build exists, but the complete workflow is still being checked.

Does it decide which reviewer is right?

No. It is designed to surface the choices and keep the human decision visible.

Does a candidate brief count as approved?

No. A candidate is a proposal for review. Approval must be recorded separately.
