Approval step

Answer in brief

The point at which a named person must accept a post, reply or ad before it goes out.

What “Approval step” means

An approval step separates preparing from deciding. In a team it is the main control over what is said in the company's name, and in advertising it is the control over spending. A buyer should ask where the step sits for each kind of item, who can give approval and whether anything can pass around it. Roles and permission levels are how products usually enforce it.

Linkme describes drafts in Link AI that can be created by a team member and marked 'Needs review' before launch or posting, and an ad draft that shows who created it. Its summary of the product is that the agent does the work and 'you just approve'. How roles and permission levels are configured is not stated in this reference, so confirm it directly. The rollout plan starts by naming approvers.
