Sep 17–18 Wildflower — Ep. 3 · 13 crew · 2 days
The suite

Nine apps that already know each other.

Open one and the rest is in sync — the people on the call sheet are the people in the cost plan, and the deal you sent is the deal the shoot reads.

Productions

Days, schedule, shot list, costs and deals — one record per shoot, and a series that runs twenty of them.

 See it →

Call Sheets

Cast, crew, locations and weather composed and sent — with confirms back from the crew by 6 AM.

 See it →

Costs

Plan the roster at the rates you expect, the non-people costs, a target — and share it with the client for approval.

 See it →

Agreements

Crew deal memos, talent contracts and releases — built once, sent as a private link, signed in the browser.

 See it →

Scripts

Living sides and revisions everyone works from — import FDX or Fountain, break down, and feed the schedule.

 See it →

Budgets

AICP and film-standard bids with fringes, versions and approvals, for the jobs that need the long form.

 See it →

Travel

Flights, ground and lodging per traveller — a no-login itinerary for everyone on the unit.

 See it →

Invoicing

Estimates, invoices and proposals clients approve in the browser — tracked to the production they belong to.

Cinethread AI

Import a brief into a shot list, draft a call sheet, summarise the day — from one prompt, inside the record.
