Vision Control — Version control for creative work

The old way vs. the right way

Your team already knows this pain.

Vision Control replaces the chaos of shared folders and email feedback with a clear, automatic workflow.

✗ Without Vision Control

✗

Version naming chaos

logo_FINAL_v2_USE_THIS_ONE.psd

✗

Guessing what changed

"Wait, what's different from last time?"

✗

Feedback lost in email threads

Attached PDFs, reply-all chains, missed notes

✗

No record of what was approved

"Which version did we actually ship?"

✗

Generic tools, format blind spots

Git can't diff a PSD. Dropbox can't diff a MIDI.

✓ With Vision Control

✓

Automatic version history

Every save is versioned. No naming required.

✓

Visual diff in one click

See exactly what changed — layer, note, cell, or pixel.

✓

Client review links, no account needed

They click, preview, type feedback. You get an email.

✓

Approved versions are pinned & locked

Explicit approval. Clear audit trail.

✓

Built for creative formats

PSD layers, 3D meshes, MIDI notes, video, audio, and more.

Visual diff engine

Stop squinting at filenames.
See exactly what changed.

Every supported format gets a visualization built for how that format actually works — not a generic text dump.

Layer-by-layer PSD diff

Every Photoshop layer gets its own before/after thumbnail, a pixel-level diff overlay, and a similarity percentage. Modified layers expand by default; unchanged ones collapse. The composite view at the top shows the full merged diff.

Composite diff: v1 thumbnail → pixel overlay → v2 thumbnail
Per-layer status: 🟡 modified · 🟢 added · 🔴 removed · ✅ unchanged
Metadata diffs: opacity, blend mode, position, visibility
Works on .psd and .psb — pure JS parser, no server plugins
Also covers .ai, .eps, .afdesign, .afphoto, .afpub

Interactive 3D mesh diff

Geometry is classified vertex-by-vertex against the other model's spatial hash. Added faces paint green, removed faces paint red, unchanged faces paint gray — all overlaid on ghost views of both models for full spatial context. Rotate, pan, and zoom freely.

Vertex-distance coloring: no offset artifacts, zero Z-fighting
Ghost layer of both full models at 15% opacity for interior context
Visibility toggles: show/hide added, removed, unchanged, or whole models
Adaptive tolerance scales to model size automatically
Supports .obj, .stl, .ply, .glb, .gltf, .fbx, .3mf, .dae, and more

Piano roll & sheet music diff

MIDI and MusicXML files render as a dark-themed scrollable SVG piano roll with color-coded notes. MusicXML additionally renders side-by-side sheet music via OSMD. A diff transport bar lets you play both versions simultaneously.

Gray = unchanged · Red = removed · Green = added · Dashed amber = modified (before) · Solid amber = modified (after)
Hover any note block to see pitch, velocity, and diff status
Measure-by-measure change summary table below the roll
Full support for .mid, .midi, .musicxml, .mxl, .mscz, .mscx
MuseScore native format: full semantic diff without external tools

Workflow

Three steps. Zero overhead.

No rebasing. No merge conflicts. No more wondering what's pending. Just save, review, and ship.

Your history tracks itself

Install the desktop tray client once and forget about it. Every time you hit save in Photoshop, Blender, Logic — anywhere — a new version is silently versioned in the cloud. Or drag files in manually. Collaborators sign up free — their main job is just uploading files and leaving notes.

Know exactly what you're approving

Before you click approve, see a full visual diff. Every changed layer, note, cell, or pixel is highlighted. Reject with a message, open a team vote when there are competing versions, or approve immediately. No more rubber-stamping files you haven't actually reviewed.

Stop chasing client feedback

Send a review link — no account required on their end. Your client sees a live preview, types their notes, and submits. You get an email. No attachment back-and-forth, no ambiguous PDF markups, no "did you get my last email?"

Everything included

Built for the whole team.

Not just version history — presence, permissions, themes, and a public marketplace.

🟢

Live presence

See who's viewing which file right now. Real-time avatars and activity indicators via Server-Sent Events — no polling, no refresh needed.

🔒

Role-based permissions

Owner, Co-owner, Manager (per subfolder), and Collaborator. Managers can only approve files in their assigned folder — nothing outside it.

💻

Desktop tray client

A lightweight Electron app that watches local folders and uploads a new pending version every time you hit save. Works silently in your system tray.

🎨

Project theming

Custom backgrounds (image, GIF, or video), cursor trail effects, four ambient sound slots, and per-extension custom icons. Make the space yours.

🗳️

Version voting

When collaborators submit competing versions, owners can open a time-limited poll. The team votes; the owner decides. Purely informational, never disruptive.

📧

Client review links

Send any file version to an external client via a one-click, no-login review link. They see a live preview, leave feedback, and you get an email notification.

🎁

Referral program

Every account gets a unique referral code at sign-up. When someone registers with your code and verifies their email, you both earn +5 GB of bonus storage — up to +20 GB total.

Privacy & data

Your work belongs to you.
Full stop.

We built Vision Control to store your creative work — not to profit from it.

🚫

Never used to train AI

Your files, versions, and metadata are processed solely to run the service — diff generation, storage, and delivery to you. We do not feed user content into any AI model, ours or anyone else's.

🔒

Never sold to third parties

Your data is not sold, rented, or traded with data brokers, advertisers, or analytics platforms. The only third parties that touch your data are the infrastructure providers required to run the service (hosting, storage, email).

👁️

Private projects stay private

Private projects are visible only to you and the collaborators you explicitly invite. We don't browse, index, or analyze private project content beyond what's necessary to generate diffs and store versions.

📦

Your files are always downloadable

Download your entire current project in one click from your dashboard. Individual file versions are accessible and downloadable anytime through your version history. We're GDPR compliant — your data is yours to take with you, whenever you want.

These commitments are documented in our Privacy Policy and Terms of Service.

Pricing

Start free. Upgrade when you need space.

Every plan includes all diff types, all file formats, live presence, and the marketplace.

Collaborators always sign up and contribute files for free. The number of collaborators per project is set by the owner's plan.

⚠️ Storage counts all versions, not just current files. A 500 MB PSD saved 10 times uses 5 GB — you're storing a full history, not just a snapshot. Delete old versions anytime to reclaim space.

Does my whole team need to pay?

No. Only the project owner needs a storage plan. Collaborators join and contribute files for free — their uploads count against the owner's quota.

What happens if I run out of storage?

New uploads are blocked. Upgrade your plan or delete files to continue uploading. Read ToS for more details.

Can I earn more storage for free?

Yes — through the referral program. Share your unique referral code when a friend signs up. Once they verify their email, you both earn +5 GB. Up to 4 referrals = +20 GB bonus on top of your plan.

See every difference,
every time you save, on every file.

Your team already knows this pain.
