Automated Procreate Project Setup Checklists

Each time a new illustration brief lands, WebRun reads its deliverables and canvas requirements, builds a Trello checklist covering canvas setup through final export, and messages the assigned illustrator on WhatsApp with the deadline and key requirements.

In short

How do I set up a new Procreate illustration project the same way every time?

WebRun turns a new illustration brief into a ready-to-work Procreate project. It reads the brief's deliverables and canvas requirements, builds a Trello checklist covering canvas setup through final export, and messages the assigned illustrator on WhatsApp with the deadline, so every project starts the same organized way.

  • Every new project starts with the same complete checklist
  • The illustrator knows instantly what's needed and by when
  • Export mistakes drop because presets are spelled out upfront

Built for Freelance illustrators · illustration studios · children's book illustrators · concept artists

Questions, answered

Does it open or edit the artwork itself?

No. WebRun works from the project brief and Trello. It never opens, edits, or exports anything inside Procreate itself.

What if the brief changes after setup?

Re-run it and the checklist card updates with the new scope. Nothing already checked off gets reset.

Can it handle different canvas sizes for different clients?

Yes. Tell WebRun the client's usual canvas size and export format, and it builds the checklist against those requirements each time.

Put this on autopilot.
