Every feature your studio needs to run production end-to-end.
DODO replaces the eight tools most studios use with one focused workspace: shoot scheduling, equipment tracking, payroll, invoicing, Kanban post-production, a branded client portal, role-based access, and live analytics.
DODO's shoot scheduling module lets studios plan every production on a single visual calendar — assigning crew, reserving equipment, and preventing double-bookings in the same flow.
Instead of juggling WhatsApp threads, spreadsheets, and freelancer calendars, production managers see every upcoming shoot in one calendar view. Filter by team, location, or client, then drag to reschedule when a client shifts a date.
Every shoot links directly to the crew, equipment, tasks, and invoice for that production — so nothing lives in isolation. When a shoot moves, dependent tasks and equipment reservations move with it.
What's included
Day, week, and month calendar views with crew filters
Shift-based scheduling (Day/Night/Split) with automated conflict detection
Multi-location shoots with team assignments per location
Automatic reminders to crew via email and in-app notifications
Recurring shoot templates for repeat clients

📷Equipment & Inventory Tracking
DODO tracks every camera, lens, drone, and audio unit in real time so studios never double-book gear or lose track of expensive equipment on set.
Add your entire kit with quantities, serial numbers, purchase cost, and current condition. Reserve equipment against a shoot, check it out to a freelancer, and get an alert when it's due back.
Track rental income when you rent gear out to other productions, and log repairs so you always know what's ready to shoot and what's in the shop.
What's included
Real-time availability calendar per equipment item
Check-out and check-in flows with freelancer sign-off
Rental tracking with income logged automatically to project P&L
Condition and repair history for each unit
Barcode-friendly IDs for physical inventory audits

💰Dynamic Payroll Automation
DODO calculates employee and freelancer payroll automatically based on completed shifts, tasks, and hourly rates — no more spreadsheet payroll runs at the end of every month.
Set an hourly, daily, or per-task rate for every team member. As shifts get logged and tasks get marked done, DODO tallies earnings in real time. At the end of the pay period, generate a payroll run in one click.
Freelancer rates and multipliers (weekend, overtime, night shift) are configurable per person, so paying a Diwali-weekend shoot is as fair as any other day.
What's included
Auto-calculated pay from shifts and completed tasks
Overtime, weekend, and night-shift multipliers
Payroll runs exportable to Excel or bank-transfer format
Freelancer-specific rate cards with project overrides
Deductions, advances, and reimbursements tracked per person

🧾Invoicing & Payments
DODO generates GST-ready invoices for every project, tracks payments, and rolls the numbers into real-time profit-and-loss analytics per project.
Send professionally branded invoices in seconds, accept UPI and card payments, and let DODO chase overdue invoices automatically. Every rupee received flows into the project's P&L, so you always know which shoots make money and which don't.
Multi-currency, partial-payment, and advance-invoice flows are all built in — plus the tax fields Indian studios actually need (GSTIN, HSN/SAC, IGST/CGST/SGST split).
What's included
GST-compliant invoice templates with your branding
Partial payments, advances, and retainers supported
Automatic overdue reminders and payment receipts
Payment gateway integration for one-click UPI and card checkout
Real-time project profit-and-loss with cost + payroll rolled in
Post-Production05 / 08
🎬Kanban Post-Production Boards
DODO gives each project a Kanban board so editors, colorists, and delivery leads can move work through named stages — rough cut, color, sound, delivery — without status calls.
Every task on the board carries its own assignee, deadline, attached files, and client comments. When a card moves to "Ready for review," the client portal updates automatically — no separate ping needed.
Post-production stages are configurable per studio, so a wedding studio's board (Cull → Edit → Color → Album) can look completely different from an ad-film studio's (Assembly → Rough Cut → Color → Sound Mix → DCP).
What's included
Fully configurable columns per project template
Drag-and-drop with real-time updates across the team
Per-card assignees, deadlines, and file attachments
Bottleneck analytics — see which stage is slowing delivery
Auto-notify client portal when a task hits review
Delivery06 / 08
🤝Client Portal & Deliverables
DODO gives every client a branded portal where they see project progress, approve drafts, sign proposals, and download final files — no more Google Drive folder hunts.
Clients get a magic-link login (no password), see only their projects, and can leave time-coded comments on cuts and photos. Approvals are logged with a timestamp and IP, giving you a clear paper trail.
Final delivery is a single link — password-protected, expiring, and download-tracked — so you know which client opened what and when.
What's included
White-label portal with your studio's branding
Time-coded comments on videos and images
Signed approvals with audit trail
Password-protected, expiring delivery links
Delivery analytics — see who viewed and downloaded

🔐Role-Based Access Control
DODO ships with five built-in roles — admin, manager, employee, freelancer, and client — so every person sees only the projects, gear, and finances that concern them.
A junior editor doesn't see the P&L. A freelancer doesn't see other freelancers' rates. A client doesn't see internal task assignees. This lets you run a multi-agency workspace without leaking sensitive data across teams.
Custom permissions on top of built-in roles let you fine-tune access for enterprise plans — perfect for larger studios with dedicated finance or ops leads.
What's included
Five built-in roles covering every studio team member
Per-project overrides for cross-team collaboration
SSO-ready with magic links and OAuth
Audit log for permission changes and sensitive actions
Multi-agency isolation — one account, many walled-off studios
