Backstage, the client portal

See your project the way the studio sees it.

Every 4AI project comes with Backstage, where you follow each step of the work, see when it should land, answer what is waiting on you and find your files, in English, Arabic or Persian.

Timeline

Every step of the work, with the days it should land

Your project is laid out in the steps its services really take, from the kickoff call to the handover, inside the six stages we always work in. Each step says what happens in it and when it should be done, within a day or two, and the page keeps an estimate of when the whole project finishes.

  • Steps shaped by the service: a film has style frames, a website has wireframes and a staging review
  • A checklist inside each step, ticked as the team works through it
  • An estimated finish that moves with the real work

Waiting on you

When the studio needs you, you know exactly what for

A step that needs your approval, your notes or your files is handed to you by name, with the studio's note and a link to what to look at. It sits at the top of Backstage and arrives in your inbox, in your language.

  • An email when a step is handed to you
  • The note and the review link on the step itself
  • A reply to the studio in one tap

Monthly work

Retainers, one month at a time

Social media, content, SEO and product work run in monthly cycles. Each month has its own steps and dates, from the content calendar to the report, so you can see how far this month has come and what is left of it.

  • This month's progress at a glance
  • Earlier months kept and folded away
  • A live ClickUp workspace for tasks and approvals on content and social projects

Support and quotes

Questions asked in writing, answered in writing

Open a ticket about a project, an invoice or anything technical and follow the thread to its answer, with the studio's working hours in view. New work starts the same way: send a brief from Backstage and the quote comes back there.

  • Every thread kept beside its project
  • An email when the studio replies
  • Briefs and quotes answered in the same place

Questions

About Backstage

Every 4AI client. Your account opens the first time you sign in with the email you work with us from, and every project the studio starts for you appears in it.

No. Backstage comes with every project. The one paid extra is the ClickUp workspace on some monthly projects, and the studio agrees that with you before it is switched on.

With your email. We send a one-time link or code, so there is no password to remember or to leak.

No. Every project, file and message is locked to your account in the database itself, and files download through private links that expire.

The studio moves the dates of the steps in Backstage, and the estimated finish moves with them, so what you see is always the current plan.

English, Arabic and Persian. The layout turns right to left for Arabic and Persian, and the steps of your project are written in all three.
