Production OS · Built by a production company
Every production leaves a record.
Slatebook is the operating system for production companies. Bookings, crew, kit, call sheets and money in one place — so the shoot day runs on a record instead of a group chat.

THE OWNER’S MONDAY VIEW · REAL SCREEN, DEMO DATA
How most companies run
A shared calendar, a spreadsheet of freelancers, a call sheet template someone copies, and a WhatsApp group where the actual decisions happen.
What that costs
The same camera promised twice. A quote built on a guess. A freelancer chased for an invoice nobody logged. None of it is incompetence — it is the absence of a record.

The Production Playbook
The methodology the software encodes, written out in full: the twelve-point pre-production checklist, how to structure a kit list so clashes surface early, and how to cost a shoot day so the quote survives contact with the shoot.
Use it with a spreadsheet if you like. It works either way — that is the point.

Who built it
We built it because we needed it on Thursday.
Slatebook is made by a working production company. Every feature exists because a shoot went wrong without it. Nothing ships until we have run a real job through it.
