Monday morning, before Kicklayer: Three "quick" emails asking for the logo, a Slack message with a blurry JPEG, and a Drive folder named FINAL_assets_v3. Your team burns half a day just figuring out what's missing.

Meanwhile, back at the agency...

Your dashboard shows the exact status of every client. No more searching through Slack or asking "did they send the logo yet?".

Early Adopters.

Real workflow impact.

Use case: Designer onboarding templates
Output: structured creative briefs + validated assets

“For NOVA, the difference was immediate. Before Kicklayer, design requests sounded like 'make it nicer' and we got scattered uploads across email and Slack. Now our template asks for product area, design goals, user context, references, assets, and technical constraints up front. Our designers start with a usable brief on day one, and we stopped losing momentum to clarification loops.”

The Client Experience

Zero friction. Zero excuses.

Your clients are busy. Forcing them to create an account on yet another platform is a guaranteed way to delay your project. Kicklayer removes every barrier between you and your assets.

The Workflow

From signed contract to project kick-off.

01

Define the Schema

Create purely structured JSON templates requiring files, URLs, or text. No messy drag-and-drop builders.

02

Send Magic Link

Fire off a unique, secure URL to your client. They click and upload directly—no accounts, no passwords to forget.

03

Download ZIP

Kicklayer nags them until it's done. Once finished, you receive a single, authenticated ZIP of all assets.

Beyond the Basics

Everything you need to run a professional operation.

AI Quality Analysis & Briefs

Automatically scan uploaded assets for resolution, format, and size issues. Generate comprehensive project briefs from client answers instantly.

Smart Adaptive Reminders

Our system calculates delay risk and automatically adjusts reminder cadence and tone. Friendly at first, firm when deadlines approach.

Secure Credential Vault

Stop asking for passwords over email. Collect credentials securely with AES-256-GCM encryption and plaintext secret detection.

Advanced Schema Logic

Build complex templates with conditional logic, repeatable groups, and specific asset slots (e.g., primary logo, favicon) with strict validation.

Accountability

End the "I sent it" debate.

Stop arguing over whether an email was sent or if the logo was high-res. Kicklayer tracks every view, upload, and deletion with a cryptographic timestamp.

  • Granular audit logs for every action
  • One-click asset rejection with automated follow-ups
  • Version history for replaced files
  • Read receipts for magic links
