Fissible Station is a self-hosted Laravel CMS designed for agencies managing 5–20 client sites from a single install, with enforced client approval workflows and tenant isolation.
What is Fissible Station?
Fissible Station is a multi-tenant content management system that runs on a single self-hosted Laravel instance. It takes content drafts as input and produces approved, published websites with a full audit trail. Each client site is isolated with its own users, content, menus, and workflow, eliminating the need for separate CMS subscriptions. The product is developed by Fissible, the same team behind the Fissible Phone business app and open-source developer tools like Accord, Drift, and Forge.
Key Features
- Multi-tenant isolation – Each client gets their own users, content, menus, and approval workflows within one Laravel install, without per-site CMS licenses or separate deployments.
- Client approval enforcement – Content cannot go live until a client stakeholder explicitly approves it; every approval step is logged and versioned.
- Audit log – Every action (draft, submit, approve, publish) is tracked with timestamps and user identity, providing a verifiable record for compliance.
- Versioned publishing – Changes can be scheduled and published only after approval, preventing accidental or unauthorized live updates.
- One-install economics – Instead of managing separate CMS stacks for each client, a single Laravel instance serves multiple tenants, reducing hosting overhead and admin complexity.
- Open-source tooling integration – The stack builds on publicly inspectable tools: an OpenAPI contract validator (Accord), API drift detection (Drift), and spec scaffolding (Forge), all available as standalone OSS projects.
Who is it for?
- Small agencies managing roughly 5–20 client sites who want to avoid per-site CMS sprawl and unpredictable hosting costs.
- Agency project managers who need a clear approval chain where clients sign off on content before it goes live, without giving every client publishing access.
- Content editors who draft and submit changes, then wait for client approval before scheduling publication.
- Client stakeholders who review and approve changes through a controlled interface, with no risk of bypassing the workflow.
What can you do with Fissible Station?
- Agency publishing pipeline – Draft content, submit for client review, wait for sign-off, then schedule or publish immediately, all within the same system.
- Client approval dashboards – Let clients review pending changes, approve or reject them, and see a history of all decisions without giving them admin-level CMS access.
- Multi-site management from one dashboard – Switch between client tenants, manage content, users, and workflows for each site without logging into separate admin panels.
- Audit compliance – Review the full audit log to prove exactly when and by whom each piece of content was approved before publication.
How does Fissible Station work?
The workflow follows five enforced stages: Draft – write content safely in isolation. Submit – request client review. Approve – client must sign off (no bypass). Publish – content goes live only after approval. Audit Log – every action is tracked and visible. The system enforces these steps at the model layer, so permission drift or mis-clicks won't skip approval.
