If you need a more custom workflow
If your process is more specific—like internal approval routing, version control, and templated formatting—you may want to use:
- A PR platform for distribution
- A document workflow tool like DocuSign, Airtable, Monday.com, Asana, or SharePoint for approvals
- Then publish through the embargo/distribution system once approved
