Client-ready architecture handoffs for agencies and founders
Arcobay · Architecture documentation · Aug 15 · Updated Aug 15
A handoff is not a ZIP of screenshots. It is a living portal: diagram, decisions, walkthrough video, and a link that still works after the next deploy.
A client-ready architecture handoff is a shareable portal with the living diagram, the decisions behind it, and a walkthrough video — not a folder of dated screenshots.
Agencies lose days rebuilding a Lucidchart the night before a delivery. Founders lose the room when an investor asks “what talks to Stripe?” and the answer is a six-month-old PNG. Arcobay’s handoff is the product: connect the repo, pin the story, ship the link.
What the portal includes
- The architecture board, not a flattened export only.
- Decision notes on nodes so “why Redis” is one click.
- Optional Q&A so the client does not email you for every box.
- A walkthrough video generated from the same map.
Free includes a watermarked preview. Client-ready URLs start on Pro; Agency adds white-label. Details on pricing. For the video path, read architecture walkthrough video.
FAQ
White-label? Agency plan. Pro is client-ready without custom branding.
Video only? Export the walkthrough; keep the portal for the questions that arrive later.
