Product
Seven capabilities. One workspace per project.
Synz isn't a bundle of features — it's one connected system where external work happens. Each capability below exists because something currently falls between tools.
Every project gets one dedicated space.
Create a project, attach the client, and add the external teams doing the work. Files, tasks, messages, approvals and meetings all live in that space — so the state of a project is never a guess.
- For
- Companies managing freelancers, agencies and vendors on active work.
- Solves
- Project context is split across email, chat and shared drives, so nobody has the full picture.
- One workspace per project, scoped to its members
- Task checklists with assignees and due dates
- Milestones and timeline visible to client and teams
- Client and external teams see the same source of truth

Page 3 — can we try the headline in the lighter weight? The bold feels heavy next to the wordmark.

Good call — tried both weights, v4 compares them side by side. Uploading now.

Files, Review & Comment — as rendered in the workspace
Submit, review, revise, approve — with a record.
Work moves through a defined cycle instead of a vague 'looks good?' thread. Every decision is timestamped and attributed, and pending approvals surface reminders instead of slipping.
- For
- Anyone who needs formal client sign-off before work ships or gets invoiced.
- Solves
- Approvals happen informally and can't be proven later — or they stall silently for weeks.
- Submit → Review → Revise → Approve cycle per deliverable
- Every decision timestamped and attributed
- Reminders for pending approvals
- Approval history kept with the project record

Every decision is timestamped and attributed — the audit trail exports with the project.
Structured Approvals — as rendered in the workspace
Move from prepared document to recorded completion.
Prepare a project document, assign recipients, choose a signing order, and collect typed or drawn signatures with consent. The status, audit trail, and completion certificate stay beside the work.
- For
- Teams that need a clear, project-connected signature workflow for clients and contractors.
- Solves
- Documents leave the project to be signed, then return without a reliable completion record.
- Sequential or parallel recipient order
- Required fields, consent, and signature capture
- Status visible to workspace and scoped client portal
- Audit trail and completion certificate

Documents & E-Signatures — as rendered in the workspace
Conversations that can't lose their context.
Threads are scoped to the project, not a catch-all channel. Attach files directly in the conversation, and search across a project's entire history — because the discussion lives next to the work.
- For
- Clients and external teams who currently coordinate in WhatsApp or Slack.
- Solves
- Half the decisions about a project happen in chats nobody else can find afterwards.
- Threads scoped per project, not per channel
- Attach files directly into the conversation
- Search by project, person or keyword
- Client and team members in the same conversation

Reviewed — the lighter weight works. One note on the tagline spacing, added in the file.
Elena Marsh Northstar Media · Owner · 11:20
Once the tagline tweak lands, let's move this to approval so the dev team can start.
Per-Project Messaging — as rendered in the workspace
Meetings that stay attached to the project.
Schedule reviews and syncs from inside the project, pick a time, and generate the meeting link. Agendas and notes stay on the project record. A Calendly integration plugs into this UI in a later phase.
- For
- Teams running recurring client reviews, kickoffs and handover calls.
- Solves
- Meeting links, notes and follow-ups drift away from the project they were about.
- Schedule meetings from inside a project
- Meeting link generated on confirmation
- Upcoming schedule visible to both sides
- Notes and follow-ups saved to the project

Meeting Scheduling — as rendered in the workspace
The right people see the right projects — nothing more.
Workspace members you invite see only the projects and storage you assign them. Role-based permissions, private project spaces and full activity visibility keep external collaboration controlled.
- For
- Companies that can't give external parties the keys to everything.
- Solves
- Sharing folders and group chats grants far more access than the work actually requires.
- Role-based access: owner, admin, member
- Private project spaces with invite-only access
- Client-controlled storage allocation per team
- Activity visibility across uploads, approvals and invites
