For Print shops

Every client file, print-ready before it hits your prepress queue.

Branded intake links for every client. Bleed, trim, DPI, CMYK, font embedding, crop marks all checked on upload. Rejects ship back automatically with the exact fix note. Your prepress team stops diagnosing.

The pain

Right now your prepress team spends 60% of their day opening the wrong file type, emailing for the right one, explaining bleed for the 400th time. GoBrief is the intake layer that stops that cycle. The file either passes spec or the client sees the fix note before it leaves their hands.

How print shops use it

Built around how you actually work.

01 · Intake

Branded file drop per client

Each client gets a link branded as your shop. They upload, the page checks spec inline, they see exactly what's wrong before submitting.

02 · Validate

Spec enforcement on upload

Trim, bleed, DPI at placement size, CMYK vs RGB, font embedding, crop marks, overprint. All checked via pdf-lib before anything hits your queue.

03 · Prove it

Client-facing proofs + sign-off

Generate proofs, send with a signed sign-off link, store the audit trail. When the client disputes a reprint, you have the signed proof.
