Launching Keepsake - The final approval layer for creative studios

I built Keepsake because the last 5% of a creative project can be surprisingly messy.

The work is finished. The client says “looks great.” Then you're left wondering:

• Which version did they actually approve?

• Did they officially sign off?

• Is it safe to send the source files?

• Where's the record if there's ever a question later?

Keepsake is built around that final moment.

A creator sends the finished work to their client through a secure, branded vault. The client can review the work, request changes, or approve the exact version and sign off — without creating an account.

Once approved, Keepsake creates a permanent approval record tied to the exact deliverables, including file hashes, and unlocks the original/source files.

So the workflow becomes:

Review → Revise → Approve → Sign → Certificate → Originals unlocked

The idea isn't to replace project management, file storage or contracts.

It's to make the moment a creative project officially becomes finished feel professional, clear and documented.

Why I built it

I've seen how often the final handover gets treated as an afterthought.

A project can take weeks or months of design and development, only for the final approval to happen through a Slack message, an email saying “looks good”, or a Dropbox link.

I wanted to build something specifically for that final stage.

Something that feels premium for the client, while giving the creator a clear record of exactly what was approved and handed over.

Who it's for

Keepsake is designed for:

• freelance designers

• branding studios

• web designers

• photographers

• creative agencies

• motion designers

• developers doing client work

• small creative studios

Especially anyone who regularly finishes a project and then has to hand over source files.

What I'm looking for

I'm launching Keepsake with a free first handover.

I'm looking for creative professionals who have an upcoming client project and are willing to try the complete workflow on a real handover.

I'm particularly interested in honest feedback — including what's confusing, unnecessary or doesn't fit the way you actually work.

This isn't about collecting thousands of signups.

I want to see whether Keepsake genuinely makes the final handover better.

Finish the work. Get it approved. Hand it over with proof.
