Citrusbyte: sharing unfinished design files with clients through a live link
A 2018 Figma blog post says a 90-person studio shows clients raw work in progress, with a persistent link and in-file comments.

WHAT THEY DID
Citrusbyte shares in-progress files through one link that always shows the current version, lets clients comment on specific parts and even test headline copy, and holds frequent progress meetings, sometimes daily, while clients follow the presenter’s screen.
HOW IT WENT
A designer estimates 30 to 50% time saved; a client estimates review cycles halved on one project; the studio reports about $20k a year saved on tools.
WORTH KNOWING
From 2018 and vendor-published. The article notes clients can misread messy work, which the studio manages by setting expectations.
