Speed up reviews. Eliminate guesswork. Collaborate like you’re in the same room — anywhere.
Iconik 25.06 introduces document-to-PDF conversion as well as powerful new review features (public beta only) designed to cut approval times, streamline collaboration, and keep your creative projects moving, without the back-and-forth.
These updates are part of Iconik 25.06, now available. Read the full Changelog.
Document-to-PDF conversion – Turn Office docs into reviewables
Turn office docs into PDFs you can review just like video or stills. With Iconik’s built-in Cloud Document Transcoder, you can convert Word, Excel, PowerPoint, and other common formats into PDFs for cloud-based review and annotation. No downloads, no third-party tools—just streamlined feedback, all in one place.
Supported formats include: .doc, .docx, .xls, .xlsx, .ppt, .pptx, .txt, .rtf, and more.
You can learn more about this process via the Iconik Cloud Document Transcoder guide.

Real-time review: Sync up with your team
No more "whose screen are we looking at?" moments. Iconik's synchronized review connects your entire team in real-time, pixel-perfect collaboration. Whether your team is hybrid, remote, or spanning continents, when you play, pause, scrub, zoom, or change assets; everyone sees the same frame at the exact same moment. Projects continue to move forward without compromise, and approvals happen in hours, not days.
PDF review and annotation
Bring all PDF assets like scripts, storyboards, design mockups, and brand guidelines into your review environment. With full annotation capabilities across PDFs, video, and stills, you can now consolidate feedback on every piece of your creative puzzle. No more juggling multiple tools or losing critical input in email chains.
Share collections and playlists, not just single assets
Instead of sharing isolated clips, curate and share dynamic playlists that maintain story flow and creative intent. Stakeholders, colleagues, and collaborators see the complete picture, feedback becomes more meaningful, and approvals accelerate because everyone has the context they need to make decisions.
A new player experience
Build sequences, instantly switch between versions or media types, and access asset metadata, all within a dynamic, intuitive player designed for creative professionals.
My Shares, for total visibility into what’s shared, with whom.
My Shares is a new, centralized hub where every user can manage, track, and recall every piece of content they’ve shared or that’s been shared with them. They can gain visibility into who has access to what, when shares expire, and how content is consumed. It’s all your shares, at your fingertips.
Internal-only comments: Keep team-only notes private
Logged-in Iconik users can mark comments as internal, making them visible only to your team, not to external reviewers or clients. Use this to align internally before sharing, flag sensitive issues, or discuss next steps without cluttering the review for collaborators.
We hope you enjoy these new features, and we’re excited for you to try everything new in your workflows.
