I’ve seen multiple version control apps pass by in recent years. However they seem to focus too heavy on one particular tool. For me as a designer I’m really looking for a version control system / app which handles multiple files from multiple software applications. On a regular day I use, Photoshop, Illustrator, Indesign, After Effects, Premiere Pro, and some other smaller tools as a base. If there ever could be a (local— because of the large file sizes in video) versioning system which brings them all together that would mean the world. Preferably in a nice gui application. And I know these apps have failed in the past but I think there might just be a market for it. (Instead of versioning it all in the finder / explorer myself)

Zeplin is the current darling. It's real power is in digesting designs into code to make handoff to developers easier.

AFAIK, many of those programs use non-free formats which makes it challenging to implement what you're talking about. Vendor lock-in sucks.
