Lingo is the best way to organize, share, and use your team's digital assets. Whether you're managing brand guidelines, design systems, photo libraries, or press kits, Lingo helps you increase productivity, empower creation, and ensure brand consistency at scale.

The problem with folders

For years, teams have used complicated folder structures to organize their digital assets. But folders are really just a place to dump and store files - you can't showcase assets in a meaningful way or provide the context your team needs to use them correctly. This makes assets hard to find, difficult to understand, and painful to keep up to date.

Lingo solves this by replacing the folder with a flexible canvas where you can visually display your assets alongside contextual information like usage guidelines, notes, and documentation. Your team will be able to find assets faster, use them correctly, and stay aligned on your brand.

How Lingo works

Lingo is built on two layers: a back-end Library where admins manage and organize assets, and front-end Kits and Portals where you showcase and share them with your audience. This separation means you manage assets once in the Library, then present them in multiple ways through different Kits and Portals.
