The company operates within the rapidly growing food delivery sector, functioning as a regional player under a large grocery retail parent company. Their team includes a senior visual designer who primarily focuses on video content production and storytelling. Over the past year, the company has significantly ramped up in-house video production to better align with their go-to-market strategy and enhance brand storytelling.
Existing Workflow
Currently, the company’s media and creative teams rely on multiple digital platforms to manage their video content lifecycle. These platforms include Box for storage, Google Drive for file sharing, Frame.io for review and approval, and Figma for design collaboration. Content storage and accessibility are fragmented across these tools, and sharing projects or collecting feedback requires juggling several platforms.
Issues with the Existing Workflow
The company faces bottlenecks related to content storage speed, accessibility, and especially searchability. With multiple platforms in use, the team struggles to easily locate previously created video assets for reuse, often relying on individual knowledge of file locations and naming conventions. This disorganization leads to inefficiencies, duplicated efforts, and delays in the creative process. The growing volume of video content has reached a critical mass, making their current systems increasingly inadequate.

By consolidating tools into one system, Shade helps the company reduce content sprawl and accelerates project turnaround times. Its search function enables the team to quickly find and repurpose existing assets, minimizing redundant production work and cutting costs. Shade’s platform also supports seamless feedback exchange, replacing the need for multiple review tools.
