Design review

When a team needs calmer handoffs, Kanvly gives each review item a stable place for notes, assignees, due dates, and follow-up.

Where Kanvly fits

Design review gets noisy when feedback lives in screenshots, meeting notes, chat messages, and implementation comments at the same time. Kanvly gives review work a shared operating layer so feedback, ownership, and next steps stay visible after the meeting ends.

Best fit
  • Design teams that need a calmer way to track review rounds and polish.
  • PMs coordinating design feedback with implementation follow-through.
  • Small teams that want handoff notes to stay attached to active work.

Workflow playbook

How to run design review inside Kanvly.

The goal is not to create a complicated operating system. The goal is to make the work, the owner, and the supporting context easy to find every week.

Turn feedback into trackable work

Create a card for each review item that needs a decision, owner, or follow-up. Keep purely informational notes in the review note instead of bloating the board.

Separate review stages clearly

Use statuses like intake, design pass, PM review, implementation, final polish, and done so the team can see where feedback is stuck.

Capture the handoff

Use notes for constraints, edge cases, rationale, and implementation guidance so the next owner can act without another recap.

Recommended workspace shape
  • A review board grouped by round, feature, or surface area.
  • A shared note for critique summary, decisions, and unresolved questions.
  • Labels for copy, visual polish, interaction, accessibility, implementation, and blocker.
  • A final checklist for launch readiness and follow-up observations.
Review rhythm
  • Before review: gather feedback and turn only actionable items into cards.
  • During review: assign owners and clarify which items are decisions versus suggestions.
  • After review: move accepted work into implementation or final polish.
  • Weekly: close stale review items and document recurring patterns.
Notes to keep
  • Critique summaries and decision rationale.
  • Implementation notes, edge cases, and accessibility concerns.
  • Open questions that should be answered before handoff is considered done.

Outcomes to expect

  • Capture feedback as cards instead of scattering it across separate threads.

  • Use checklists to track polish items and review completion.

  • Keep implementation notes inside the card rather than in side documents.

  • Make review rounds easier to scan for PM, design, and implementation owners.

  • Preserve the reasoning behind changes so handoff does not reset every week.
