Public profile hold/release checklist

Turn public-profile review into a visible gate with sources, hold reasons, and named approval.

Nothing public moves because a draft looks finished. It moves when a person reviews the source and accepts responsibility for the change.

Bring one workflow
01

Draft source

  • Attach intake and foster source material.
  • Mark AI-prepared wording.
  • List any fact that remains unknown.

Early access, founder-led

Keep this with the animal record.

WhiskerMatch is one record per animal that intake, foster, adoption review, and public profiles share. It starts with one workflow, beside the tools you already use, and a person at your organization makes every decision.

$20/month per organization, no seat limits. This is a founder-led early access invitation with no deadline. Writing to ask a question costs nothing and commits you to nothing.
