Overview

MarginRail is a commercial decision checkpoint for digital, creative and marketing agencies. Teams compare a redacted client request with agreed scope, review boundary evidence and estimated value, then record whether to charge, trade, defer or deliberately absorb the work before delivery starts. MarginRail does not continuously read Slack, Teams or mailboxes; an agency deliberately submits each request it wants checked.
