“I see campaign results weekly without asking.”
“Design approvals now happen from one link.”
Challenges
- Too many tools on monthly dollar subscriptions (project management, reporting, scheduling, design) eating into profit.
- Client follow-ups and content approvals bounce between WhatsApp and email and get lost.
- Building performance reports (campaigns, reach, engagement) is manual work that drags on for hours every month.
- Hard to prove advertising ROI to the client and tie it to actual sales.
- Electronic invoices (ZATCA), contracts and payments run late and disrupt cash flow.
Systems you can build
- An internal agency management system: clients, projects, team tasks and working hours on one dashboard.
- An external client portal: they see the content, approve it or request a change, and follow their campaign's progress.
- A performance reporting dashboard that pulls campaign numbers together and produces a ready report in the client's branding automatically.
- Automation for scheduling and publishing content, plus WhatsApp integration to remind clients about approvals.
- A quotes, contracts and e-invoicing system compliant with ZATCA, with online payment.
- An internal tool for archiving creative assets (designs, video, copy) with fast search.

Internal agency operations system (PMO)
Build me a complete internal operations system for a creative marketing agency that manages clients, projects, campaigns, team tasks and working hours in one dashboard, in English with Arabic support. I want project management on a kanban board with custom statuses (new, in progress, awaiting approval, complete), time tracking per project to calculate client profitability automatically, and team workload distribution with alerts on overload. Apply fine-grained roles and permissions (RBAC): agency director, team lead, designer, accountant — each role seeing only what concerns them, with secure login, two-factor authentication and an audit log for every change. Design the architecture to scale: a database indexed on client and project keys, caching for read-heavy dashboards, and task queues for report generation and heavy operations so the interface never slows. Add world-class protection: data encryption, rate limiting, automatic daily backups, and monitoring and logs (observability) to catch failures early. Connect ZATCA-compliant e-invoicing and WhatsApp alerts for project updates. Make the experience professional, fast and responsive on mobile, with basic tests and short documentation, delivered production-ready.
Client portal and collaborative approvals
Build me a professional external client portal on a multi-tenant architecture that fully isolates each client's data from the others, where the client logs in securely to view scheduled content (posts, designs, videos) and approve it or request a revision with a precise comment pinned to a specific point on the design. I want multi-stage approval flows (internal review then client sign-off), with every approval or rejection logged with date and user as a legal record, plus instant alerts over WhatsApp and email when content is waiting on the client. Apply roles and permissions: the client's account owner gives final approval, their staff can only comment. Design it to handle high load: a content delivery network (CDN) for heavy image and video assets, caching for previews, and a database indexed on the tenant key, with realtime streaming of comments and statuses. Respect world-class standards: encryption, rate limiting, protection against common attacks, accessibility, and an English-first interface with Arabic support on mobile and desktop. Add backups, monitoring and logs, and make it production-ready with an elegant experience carrying each client's branding, plus short documentation.
Publishing and reporting automation engine
Build me an automation engine that schedules and publishes content to social platforms automatically at its set times, aggregates performance data from multiple sources (ad platforms and site analytics) via API keys held in the secret store, then generates a ready monthly report in each client's branding and sends it automatically. I want a visual workflow builder where the user sets the trigger and the action (for example: when content is approved, publish it; at month end, generate the report and send it over WhatsApp). Use task queues for every heavy pull and publish operation with automatic retries when an external platform fails, and reliable scheduling that keeps working even if one source goes down. Apply permissions: who builds the automation versus who may only run it, with an execution log for every job (succeeded/failed and why). Design it to scale to thousands of daily jobs: parallel processing, caching of platform results, and a time-indexed database for metrics. Respect security (key encryption, rate limiting against external sources), monitoring and logs to catch any failure, and an English-first interface. Make it production-ready with tests and short documentation.
Mobile app for campaign tracking
Build me a professional mobile app (Expo) where the brand owner follows their campaigns live: live campaign performance, content awaiting their approval, invoices and payments, and messages from the agency team — all from their phone. I want push notifications when content arrives for approval or performance shifts meaningfully, and content approval directly from the app in one tap, with partial offline support and automatic sync when the network returns. Apply secure login, two-factor authentication and roles (account owner approves, staff only follow along). Design the backend (API) to scale to thousands of users: an indexed database, caching for read-heavy data, queues for notifications, and a design that withstands high load. Respect world-class standards: encryption, rate limiting, accessibility, performance and response speed, and an English-first interface with Arabic support. Connect online invoice payment (mada, Apple Pay) and WhatsApp alerts. Add monitoring, logs and backups, and make it Expo Go compatible and production-ready with tests and short documentation.
Ad management platform for millions of users
Build me a SaaS platform for campaign management and analytics designed from the ground up to serve millions of users and thousands of agencies at once, focused on scalable architecture. I want a multi-tenant structure with strict data isolation per agency, a sharded and carefully indexed database, a distributed caching layer for read-heavy dashboards, task queues for every metric pull and heavy report generation, and a content delivery network (CDN) for assets and the interface. Design the services to scale horizontally behind a load balancer, with the write path separated from the read path, and a data lake to aggregate time-series campaign metrics and query them fast. Apply fine-grained roles and permissions (RBAC) at organisation, team and user level, with secure login, two-factor authentication and single sign-on (SSO). Respect world-class standards fully: data encryption in transit and at rest, protection against common attacks, per-tenant rate limiting, backups and disaster recovery, monitoring with distributed tracing and centralised logs, and high performance under pressure. Make the interface English-first with Arabic support and accessibility, and connect ZATCA-compliant invoicing and online payment. Deliver it production-ready with performance and load tests and short architectural documentation.
Questions about Marketing & Creative Agencies
You describe the dashboard you want to Uttra in your own words and it builds it for you: a control dashboard (one screen that runs everything) with your client list, each client's projects and campaigns underneath, and team tasks with their statuses (new / in progress / awaiting approval / done). You can add time tracking per project so you know each client's profitability. The system is yours — you own the code and the database, with no monthly subscription.
Uttra builds you an external client portal (a site the client logs into with their own account) where they see scheduled posts and designs and, with one click, approve or write a revision note. Every approval is logged with its date so you have a clear record. You can add a WhatsApp alert that reaches the client the moment content lands awaiting their approval, so delays and lost messages drop.
With Uttra you build a reporting dashboard connected to your data sources (ad platforms and site analytics) through API keys from the secret store, pulling reach, engagement and clicks into one place. Then you use task scheduling to produce a ready report in the client's branding automatically at the end of every month. What used to take hours becomes one click, and the team focuses on creative work instead of copy-paste.
Uttra builds you a quotes and invoicing system that issues a ZATCA-compliant electronic invoice, and connects a payment gateway (mada, Apple Pay, Moyasar, HyperPay) with its key in the secret store so the client pays online directly. You can let the client approve the quote electronically and have it convert automatically into a contract and invoice, making your cash flow clearer and faster.
You build an ROI dashboard that pulls campaign spend on one side and results (sign-ups, orders, sales) on the other by connecting the client's store or order form to Uttra. The dashboard calculates cost per order and return live. That lets you talk to the client in clear numbers instead of estimates, which raises their trust and keeps them with you longer.
Uttra builds you an internal asset archive: every file under its client and campaign, with fast search by name or tag (category). That way the team finds any old design in seconds instead of digging through scattered folders, and any new hire can easily go back through a client's previous work.
Agencies typically pay monthly dollar subscriptions for project management, reporting, scheduling and client-portal tools, and every extra seat raises the bill. With Uttra you build these tools once and own the code, turning a recurring monthly expense into an asset you own. The saving grows as your team and client roster grow, and you control the features instead of waiting on tools you don't own.
Start with the one that hurts most and saves time fastest. The practical order is usually:• First: a simple internal management dashboard (clients + projects + tasks). • Second: the client content-approval portal with WhatsApp alerts. • Third: monthly report automation, then invoicing and payment. Describe each step to Uttra in your own words, try it on one client, and once it's working roll it out to the rest.
This is called multi-tenancy, and Uttra builds it correctly for you. The idea is that each client has a tenant identifier tied to every row in the database, and every query is filtered on that identifier automatically, so one client can never see another's data. The layers that matter:• Data isolation: mandatory filtering at the database level, not just in the interface. • Permission isolation: each user is bound to their tenant, and their roles only work within those boundaries. • Asset isolation: each client's files live in their own path. That way you build one platform serving all your clients safely instead of a copy for each, and it scales easily as their number grows.
The trick is not to let heavy operations happen while the user is opening the page. Uttra applies world-class architectural patterns for you:• Task queues: pulling platform numbers and generating reports happens in the background, and the user carries on working while the report arrives ready. • Caching: frequently opened dashboards have their results cached instead of being recomputed every time. • Indexing and sharding: the database is indexed on the important keys and sharded as it grows so queries stay fast. • Horizontal scaling: adding servers behind a load balancer when pressure rises. All of it comes with monitoring and logs that warn you before a failure hits, so the system grows with you instead of collapsing at the first surge.
Security is built in layers, and Uttra gives you the tools ready:• Secret store: ad platform keys are stored encrypted in the secret store, never written into the code and never shown to anyone. • Encryption: client data encrypted in transit and at rest. • Rate limiting: blocks any flooding or abuse attempt. • Fine-grained permissions (RBAC): each employee reaches only the minimum they need. • Backups and an audit log: a daily copy for restore, and a log showing who did what and when. That way you handle your clients' data to world-class standards, and can reassure them their assets and keys are somewhere safe rather than exposed.
