Budget Governance & Executive Reporting
Cloud-Based Budgeting
That Keeps Every Cost, Tag and Account Connected.
Dramatify's production budgeting software reimagines financial planning for modern productions. Built for film, TV, and broadcast companies, it moves beyond spreadsheets and standard budgeting software to deliver fast, integrated film production budgeting in the cloud.
Import breakdown information, crew and cast. Easily compare accounts and costs through a smart top sheet, add notes and upload cost specifications directly to budget lines, and tag expenses for instant summaries — perfect for tracking related costs across accounts.
Designed for cost control in TV, film & broadcast production, Dramatify keeps every figure transparent, supports multi-currency budgeting for international co-productions, and lets you access, review, and update budgets anywhere — even on your mobile on the way to set.
