ARLing Proof · For small print & sign shops

Get the right yes.
Before you print.

The artwork, the production details and your customer’s written approval stay in one record, so six months later you can still show who approved what.

You are the customer. The opening time needs changing.

  2. Change requested
  3. Version 2 uploaded
  4. Version 2 approved

The sign and customer are fictional. No file is uploaded and no real approval is recorded.

A decision that stays with the artwork

“Looks good”
needs a version.

A “looks good” in an email can be rewritten or lost. Here it stays on the record: who approved which file, at which size, and when. A new image, or a change of size, material or quantity, means a new version and a new decision.

  1. 01

    Create a complete proof.

    Upload a PNG or JPEG preview up to 5 MiB. Add the dimensions in millimetres, material, quantity and any notes the customer should check.

  2. 02

    Share a private review link.

    The customer opens it on their phone, marks a place on the artwork and leaves a comment, or explicitly approves that version. No customer account required.

  3. 03

    Keep the production record.

    View past versions and decisions. Export JSON or print the record to PDF with the file hash, production details, submitted name and time.

What the pilot gives you

No card.
No dressing it up.

The pilot is free while capacity lasts. Here is what works, and what does not yet.

What works today

  • A workspace for your shop, with email and password sign-in.
  • 100 jobs, 10 versions per job and 500 MiB per workspace.
  • PNG and JPEG previews up to 5 MiB, each version carrying size, material and quantity.
  • A private link for 14 days. Your customer needs no account and you can revoke it at any time.
  • Comments pinned to the exact spot on the preview.
  • JSON export and a printable record with the file hash, the name and the time of the decision.

What it cannot do yet

  • It sends no email. You send the link to your customer.
  • Password recovery is handled by hand at support@arling.sk.
  • It is not a prepress check. Colour, DPI and bleed are not assessed.
  • The workspace is in English or Slovak. Customers can decide in Czech and German too.
  • There is no automatic deletion. We delete a workspace on request.

Trust and common questions

Know what
you are approving.

Proof records a human decision about a preview and its production details. It does not inspect the artwork for print readiness.

Who stands behind it

Operator
ARLing s. r. o., Ivanská cesta 32E, 821 04 Bratislava, Slovakia. Company ID 56583486.
Where your data sits
On ARLing’s own server in the European Union. The application uses no external AI APIs and no third-party analytics.
Export and deletion
You download your records yourself as JSON or a printable record. Workspace deletion and data requests are handled on request.
Who answers you
Andrej, support@arling.sk. Write in English, Slovak or German.
What can I upload?

PNG and JPEG previews up to 5 MiB. This pilot does not review print-ready PDFs, check colour accuracy, verify DPI or replace your prepress checks.

What exactly does approval mean?

The holder of the private link enters a name and confirms the current version, text, dimensions, material and quantity. The record does not independently verify their identity and is not a qualified electronic signature.

What if my customer forwards the link?

The link is private, but it is not a login. Anyone holding it sees the current version and can decide; they type their own name and we do not verify it. Send it only to the person who should approve. The link lasts 14 days, a new link revokes the previous one, and you can revoke it yourself.

Can I withdraw a link and take my records away?

Yes. Links expire after 14 days and the owner can revoke them earlier. Records export as JSON or a printable report; owners can download uploaded versions. There is no automatic deletion in this pilot. Contact support@arling.sk to arrange access or deletion requests.

What happens after the pilot, and what will it cost?

The pilot is free while we have capacity. There is no price yet and no payment starts without your separate agreement. If we ever ended the pilot, we would write to your email first and you would download your records yourself.
