Beta — new features coming soon

Everything you get with DPM.

Every tool your design team needs — from first task to final archive.

The big one

Welcome to your Studio.

One room per project. Talk async, see what needs you in the Brief, and turn any message into a decision the team ratifies — built into the work, not bolted on.

What's inside

Security

Built on Firebase with server-side rules that enforce access at the database level — not just in the UI. Every permission check runs twice.

  • Google OAuth — no passwords to steal
  • Invite-only — no open registration
  • Platform access gate enforced server-side
  • Revoked users blocked on every sign-in attempt
  • Role-based permissions enforced at the database level
  • Non-members get zero data — read locked to memberIds
  • Two-step confirm on all destructive actions
  • 5-minute comment edit window — immutable after
  • Admin consent gate before viewing non-member projects
  • Super admin sees UI shell only — no live data
  • Presence banner when admin is in your project
  • Custom auth domain (my.designerssprint.app)

Transparency

Nothing happens in your project that members don't see. Every action is logged. Every elevated access is announced. No silent observation.

  • Admin-viewing banner — owners see when a platform admin is in their project
  • Activity log — every task move, edit, member change, and comment is recorded with name + timestamp
  • Team view exposes all members with their roles to every member — no hidden access
  • Squad presence — see who's currently in the room, what status they've set, where they're working
  • Activity feed entry logged when admin enters a non-member project
  • Elevated admin sessions stay clearly flagged — an admin can never forget they're escalated
  • Comment edit window is 5 minutes — older comments are immutable, no silent rewrites
  • Project owner / role chips visible to all members in Team view
