Collect asynchronously
Give everyone the same brief, contribution limit, deadline, and requirement to explain each reference.
Design the review for uneven screens
Share a readable export, text summary, and source notes before discussing details on a call.
Control versions and decisions
Name the reviewed file, lock approved groups, and publish exclusions and follow-up work after the meeting.
A distributed product team
Design, engineering, and research contribute separate evidence. The facilitator groups it before a call, preventing duplicated screen sharing and live sorting.
A limit to keep visible
A shared canvas cannot guarantee that participants saw the same color, scale, detail, or version. Provide a dated export, text summary, and physical sample process when those differences affect approval.
Practical checklist for this decision
- Use one shared brief.
- Require reasons with references.
- Provide a readable export.
