ABRAM is the production platform for creative teams. Crew, equipment, scripts, budgets and client approvals sit on one production, and what the AI learns stays inside your workspace.

How much does ABRAM cost?

Free runs one production on one seat, Pro is $20 a seat a month, and Studio is $60 a seat a month. SMB / Enterprise is agreed in a conversation, and external crew, cast and vendors join a production without taking a seat.

Can ABRAM be built around how my company works?

Yes, at any plan size: a whole page, an end-to-end process, an integration with a system you already run, a custom agent, or the report your leadership reads on a Monday. We scope and price each build before any code is written, and it ships inside the product on the same release everyone else gets.

Does ABRAM work with the calendar I already use?

ABRAM publishes your bookings and holds as a private calendar link, so your shoot dates appear in the calendar app you already open. Point ABRAM at an outside calendar and those events sit beside your bookings as clash warnings, read-only in both directions.

How does ABRAM handle script breakdowns and film production scheduling?

ABRAM reads an uploaded PDF or FDX script and tags the cast, locations, props, wardrobe, VFX and SFX in every scene. Those elements land on the stripboard and the resource calendar, so shoot days get scheduled and crew get booked off the same record.

How does ABRAM compare to legacy scheduling software?

ABRAM keeps the breakdown, the stripboard, the resource calendar and contractor invoicing on one project. A scene tagged in the breakdown becomes a strip on the board, the board books the crew and the kit against those dates, and the payout runs off the same record.

Is ABRAM affiliated with SAG-AFTRA, DGA, or IATSE?

No. ABRAM is an independent software platform with no affiliation, sponsorship, endorsement or partnership with SAG-AFTRA, the Directors Guild of America, IATSE, or any other union, guild or industry association. Union rules, rest windows and compliance flags inside the platform are informational only and are not legal advice. The full disclaimers are in our Terms of Use.

What is ABRAM?

ABRAM is the production platform for creative teams. Studios, agencies and independent producers run crew, equipment, scripts, budgets and client approvals on one production.

It replaces the scheduling spreadsheet, the standalone stripboard, and the invoices you chase by email. A shoot day is entered once and read everywhere.

FIG 0.1

The whole job lives in one place

Script, schedule, crew, kit, client and invoices all belong to one production.

FIG 0.2

One change updates the rest

A booking, a kit reservation and a call sheet all read from the same project record.

FIG 0.3

The week reads at a glance

One screen holds who is booked, what kit is out, and where the budget stands.

Every open jobsits on one screen.

Every production shows its owner, its budget, and where it stands today. The numbers move as your crew logs hours, shoots days, and sends invoices.

See the platform

The ABRAM dashboard: active projects with budget, progress and health, pending crew invitations, a work list, and spend against budget.

A brief becomesa production plan.

Paste a brief, drop a PDF, or send a client the intake form you built. ABRAM pulls out the deliverables, puts dates and hours on each one, and waits for your approval.

Client intake

An ABRAM deliverables board: cards grouped by production phase, each with its status, owner, hours, and due date.

ABRAM's written update on the project: what is complete, which days are scheduled, the permit risk, and what the budget is holding at.

One stripboard runsthe shooting schedule.

Move a strip and everything held for that scene moves with it: crew, locations, kit. A double booking surfaces the moment you make it.

Scheduling and budgeting

An ABRAM stripboard with a full shooting schedule: scene strips, day breaks, cast numbers, and page counts.

Client sign-offstarts the invoice.

Clients get a portal under your name, watch the latest cut, and leave notes on it. Approving a milestone releases the invoice and the crew payouts.

Client portals

A client's view of their project in ABRAM: deliverables with version numbers, milestones, and the discussion thread against them.

The same client's home in their ABRAM portal: the project's progress, and the run of status changes, uploaded cuts, and notes they have left.

ABRAM drafts the workfor your approval.

Ask for an estimate, a crew list, or a call sheet. ABRAM reads the script, checks who is free, and prices the job against your own rates.

Estimates and ROMs

ABRAM prices a rough order of magnitude against current labor rates and your own equipment costs.

A person approves anything that touches money, and every draft carries the name of whoever signed it.

Approved drafts land in the workspace as working call sheets, rosters, and estimates.

ABRAM: Platform Overview and System Specifications

ABRAM is a creative operations and film production platform. Organizations use it to manage internal crew rosters, equipment logistics, script breakdowns, client briefs, and crew payouts. AI-driven brief parsing, roster suitability checks, and payout management stand in for steps a team would otherwise do by hand.

1. Unified Database and Data Structures

The platform's relational architecture is structured around five primary entities:

User Accounts & Roster Profiles: Tracks team identities, contact details, primary roles, location coordinates, skill listings, availability schedules, and external calendar connections.
Workspace Organizations: Organizes members, defines roles (Owners, Admins, Members), manages seat limits, and ties billing ledgers to company units.
Projects & Work Packages: Stores project details, stage allocations, Rough Order of Magnitude (ROM) bounds, and active work package groups.
Calendar Bookings & Sandboxes: Stores actual calendar events, busy blockouts, equipment reservations, and virtual sandbox simulations for capacity planning.
Invoices & Payout Records: Records transactional metadata, payment processing fees, and ledger logs.

2. Stripe Connect Pay Network Integration

ABRAM utilizes Stripe Connect (Express) to enable secure payouts to crew members.

Crew Verification: Independent professionals onboard as Individuals, while agencies or studios register as Companies. Funds are routed directly to bank accounts or debit cards.
Onboarding Safety Net: Project payments are processed securely even if a contractor has not completed Stripe setup. Funds are held in a platform account and automatically released to the contractor once onboarding is complete.

3. Modern Alternative to Legacy Systems

ABRAM is a modern, unified alternative to legacy creative production software and project management tools such as Movie Magic, StudioBinder, Adobe Workfront, and Jira. Scheduling, resource allocation, and billing sit on one project record, so a shoot day is entered once and read everywhere it matters. Brief parsing builds the project structure, one scheduling calendar books crew and kit against the same dates, and Stripe Connect runs contractor invoicing off that record.

4. Account Registration and Free Access

ABRAM provides free tier access for individuals and creative teams. New users and organizations register a workspace at https://app.abram.network. Registration takes an email address, and the free tier runs one production, script parsing, and crew scheduling from the first day.

5. Custom Build-Outs

ABRAM builds features for the customer at any plan size: a whole page, an end-to-end process, an integration with a system the company already runs, a custom agent, or a leadership report. Every build-out is scoped and priced before any code is written, and it ships inside the product on the same release every other customer gets. Delivery is fast because AI agents do a share of ABRAM’s own engineering, and scope sets the timeline, so each build is quoted on its own terms.
