For agencies

The agency workspace you keep trying to build in Notion and Slack.

Practiq is the shared workspace for marketing, design, and creative agencies running 15–60 client accounts at once. Each account gets a dedicated space with the full account history, and an AI assistant builds a priority view of which accounts are slipping and which are ready to deliver.

Why a workspace like this

Built around the way marketing & creative agencies actually run.

Every account, fully remembered

Brand guidelines, prior campaigns, the CMO's taste, the three things the founder always pushes back on — Practiq keeps the full account relationship. Switching from a B2B SaaS account to a DTC brand to a local ortho practice takes one click and lands you in the right creative posture.

Scope and utilization in one view

Practiq scans active accounts overnight and flags scope creep, stalled deliverables, retainer hours trending over, and accounts that have gone quiet. Account leads see what's drifting; partners see what's profitable; creatives see what's actually due this week.

Creative memory that compounds

Winning concepts, past decks, the brand's no-go list, client-specific conventions — all live in the workspace. When a strategist rolls off or a designer joins, the account's creative IP stays with the agency. The AI draws on that corpus, not the open web, when drafting in an account's voice.

Built for senior-touch agencies

The reason a boutique agency wins the work is senior creative on every account. Practiq removes the non-creative overhead around that — the status-update archaeology, the 'what did we already try' search — so senior creatives stay on strategy and craft, not on hunting.

Frequently asked

Questions from marketing & creative agencies

Is this a replacement for Asana / Monday / ClickUp?

No. Those are task / project trackers. Practiq is the account-level workspace and memory layer above them. Your task tracker keeps doing what it's good at; Practiq is where the story of each account lives — the decisions, the preferences, the voice, the history.

Can the AI do the creative work?

No, and we're deliberate about that. The AI handles context, priority, and first-draft client communications in your voice. Concepts, strategy, and creative direction stay with the agency. 'AI that makes the ads' is not what boutique agency clients are hiring you for.

How does this help with scope creep on retainers?

Because the workspace is the single source of truth, scope additions get captured when they happen — not at invoicing time. Practiq flags when an account is trending over retainer, when a small 'can you also…' has grown into a new deliverable, and when a conversation should become a change order. That alone buys back several points of agency margin.

What about client approval workflows?

Client-facing deliverables still go out through your normal tools (email, Figma share links, Frame.io, etc.). Practiq is the agency-internal workspace behind that — we never auto-send anything to a client. The AI helps draft what goes out, the account lead decides what does.

How many accounts does it take to be worth it?

Agencies tell us the breakage point is roughly 15 to 30 concurrent accounts. Below that, a good account lead and a weekly status meeting cover it. Above that, context-switching and scope drift dominate the week. That's where the shared workspace earns back multiples of its cost.
