Retainers and actuals drift apart?

Retainer entitlements live in decks, while producers track tasks elsewhere and finance reconciles hours at month end—so no one spots over-delivery until margin slips.

Flowtly codifies retainers with deliverable limits, rate cards, and change rules. As producers log work, burn, allocations, and invoices update automatically so AMs, finance, and clients see the same numbers.

Retainer guardrails
+18%
Margin preserved
  • Retainer limits, approvals, and change requests tracked in one place
  • Burn, invoices, and staffing update instantly when scope shifts

Media pacing isn’t tied to delivery?

Spend, creative throughput, and client approvals live in different systems, so pacing calls rely on screenshots and stale spreadsheets.

Flowtly pairs media KPIs with delivery status and budgets. Dashboards show pacing against scope, required approvals, and billing triggers so AMs act before underspend or overburn hits invoices.

Report refresh time
  • Media KPIs sit next to approvals, budgets, and billing rules
  • Alerts fire when spend, deliverables, or burn move off plan

Creative bandwidth is guesswork?

Producer gut-feel drives resourcing because work type, channel mix, and seniority aren’t tied to a central plan.

Use Flowtly workloads to model briefs by channel and role. Capacity auto-updates from time tracking and bookings, so you see which squad or skill hits limits before saying yes to changes.

Capacity radar
+12%
Utilization accuracy
  • Channel-specific briefs translate into role and skill demand automatically
  • Bookings and time tracking feed live "who’s at capacity" signals

Contractor access and NDAs scattered?

Freelancers join via chat, get tool access ad hoc, and no one tracks NDA status or offboarding—risking leaks and compliance gaps.

Onboard contractors in Flowtly with NDAs, asset checklists, and time-boxed access tasks. Offboarding workflows revoke credentials, collect files, and log history so legal and ops stay covered.

Onboarding completeness
  • NDAs, access, and asset checklists bundled per contractor or squad
  • Offboarding revokes credentials and archives approvals with history
