The financial operating system of our production company. From budgeting to P-cards, AI receipt scanning, and QuickBooks sync, it replaced five separate tools.
I am a huge fan of Saturation and love the "phase" feature to easily create different versions of my budgets. I recently used it for 2 different network series and found it to be very robust with the level of functionality required by major studios and streamers.
Film budgeting online with a sleek UI. Industry-standard reports, easy to use, and we can import directly from Movie Magic.
Replaced five tools. Budget and actuals in the same system with AICP templates built in. This is what production accounting should look like.
Revolutionized our bidding and budgeting workflow. The phases feature and expense actualization make it incredibly intuitive.
Fast team budget syncing that saves time and money. Multiple people can work on the same budget and actualization is so much faster.
Incredible budget visibility and quick sharing across teams. Being able to share a budget link instead of emailing spreadsheets changed everything.
Easy, intuitive budget changes. Making quick adjustments is so simple, no more wrestling with complicated spreadsheet formulas.
The perfect blend of standards and flexibility. The dev team is incredibly attentive and the roadmap is transparent. You feel like a partner, not just a user.
Saturation is a game-changer for the film production industry! As a producer, Jens Jacob knows first-hand the challenges of outdated tools and systems. But now, Saturation's design-focused and intuitive solution makes managing productions a breeze!
Exactly what the film industry needed. Combines budgeting staples with modern offerings and a pleasing design. The #1 tool for producers and production managers.
Super clean and easy to navigate. Built by people who have been in the production trenches, you can tell from every little detail in the UI.
Clean, agile UI that just works. My wife is a film producer and we use it to organize the entire production process. It replaced spreadsheets overnight and made budgeting something we actually look forward to.
You cover the industry standards. If you look in the templates for Saturation, it has AICP, it has Disney, it has literally every template that you would need. So it covers your industry standards.
Saturation transformed our workflow by reducing reliance on error-prone spreadsheets and integrating seamlessly with other systems.
Saturation is filling that role in a really unique way that we haven't been able to do before through the auto-actualization of departments and real-time spending reports.
You really are revolutionizing the industry in a major way. When using it you don't really think about it but now that I'm losing it for a few months I'm recognizing the gravity of what is lost.
Saturation made me have a much better sense of where I was at financially in my project at all times, rather than feeling like I had a vague understanding of where my money was and wasn't.
Saturation.io is the kind of budgeting platform we producers have been begging for. No more outdated excel spreadsheets or algorithm crunching needed.
It's so flexible. It works the way I work and compliments my existing workflows while replacing outdated and inflexible tools that require so much time to keep up to date.
I have enjoyed using Saturation! It is a helpful and easy-to-use online budgeting tool for producers. Looking forward to continued updates.
Everyone hates that Hot Budget is only for Mac. Saturation being available for anything anywhere and any time is the biggest success.
Saturation has significantly improved the way our producers manage budgets in real-time, allowing for greater financial discipline without compromising speed or quality. Unlike traditional budgeting tools, Saturation is specifically designed for the fast-paced demands of production, where efficiency and oversight are critical.
Saturation has transformed the way we approach projects and it has become an alternative to traditional film budgeting methods, seamlessly integrated into our curriculum. This shift has empowered our students to master financial planning while keeping their creative focus intact, marking a historic evolution in how we prepare the next generation of filmmakers.
I love this software. We used Saturation to budget Your Attention Please all the way through our SXSW premiere. Three films in, we're bringing the P-cards into our next feature. Not going back.
The parts of my job I actually enjoy are the parts I do on Saturation. Right now I'm in Charlotte producing one commercial while my team is in San Francisco on another. From my hotel room I'm combing through actuals for both jobs and sending Payment Links to crew. You've built a tool so good that I genuinely look forward to bookkeeping. It's rare to find production software that doesn't get in the way of the work. Rarer still to find one that pushes the bounds of what's possible.
