Surface shots stuck waiting on the client
Every morning, WebRun opens Vani Software to find shots marked awaiting client review, checks Frame.io for the matching review links and whether the client has left any comment, and posts your team a Slack list of shots that have waited too long with no response so nothing quietly blocks the pipeline.

How do I find VFX shots stuck waiting on client review?
WebRun opens Vani Software every morning to find shots awaiting client review, then checks Frame.io to see whether the client has opened the review link or left a comment. It posts your team a Slack list of shots stuck too long with no response, so an unanswered approval never quietly blocks the pipeline.
- Stalled client reviews surface before they block downstream work
- The team knows exactly which approvals to chase each morning
- Approved shots drop off automatically from live Vani Software and Frame.io status
Built for VFX production managers · post-production coordinators · animation supervisors · studio delivery teams
How is each run configured?
Secure by default
Connect once, stays signed in
WebRun signs in once and keeps each session in a persistent environment, so every run picks up right where it left off.
Every action is checked against this policy before it runs.
Questions, answered
Will it nudge the client to approve?
No. WebRun only posts an internal Slack list for your team. Chasing the client stays a human decision, so nobody gets an automated reminder from your studio without your say-so.
How does it know the client has not responded?
It matches each shot to its Frame.io review link and checks whether the client has opened it or left a comment. Shots with no activity past your waiting threshold are flagged as stalled.
What if the client approved a shot overnight?
It reads the live status in Vani Software and Frame.io each morning, so any shot the client approved or commented on drops off the stalled list automatically.
