Production finance, built for agencies that run on margins.
Plan budgets, track actuals, and manage client spend across every project — so you can protect margins, bill accurately, and stop leaving money on the table.
THE PLATFORM
One platform. Pitch to final invoice.
Saturation centralizes your entire production finance workflow — bidding, budgeting, expense tracking, payments, and client billing — so nothing slips through the cracks when you're juggling 20 clients and 50 active jobs.
Bid
Build client bids from templates or past jobs. Compare estimates against actuals from similar projects to sharpen your margins before you even win the work.
Track
Every cost — card swipes, vendor invoices, freelancer day rates, POs — is captured, categorized, and allocated to the right client job automatically.
Pay
Issue virtual cards per job, pay vendors directly, process freelancer invoices, and handle crew reimbursements from one dashboard.
Bill
Generate client-ready cost reports, markup summaries, and reconciliation packages — formatted for your clients, not your accountant.
PRODUCTION INTELLIGENCE
AI that learns from every job you've ever produced.
Saturation's Production Intelligence isn't a chatbot bolted onto a spreadsheet. It's trained exclusively on your agency's production data — past bids, actuals, vendor history, expense patterns — to help you bid tighter, spot margin leaks sooner, and make decisions backed by your own track record. Your data trains your model only. It's SOC 2 certified, never shared, and never used outside your agency.
CORE FEATURES
Everything you need to run a profitable production agency.
From expense management to production credit cards and profitability reporting, Saturation handles every financial workflow so your team can focus on producing great work.
Producers, freelancers, vendors — one workflow.
Your agency runs on a rotating cast of staff producers, freelance directors and DPs, post houses, equipment rental companies, and talent agencies. Saturation handles every cost structure — day rates, kit fees, invoices, POs, per diem — without forcing you into separate systems for each.
Job-level cards. Budget-level controls.
Issue virtual and physical cards tied to specific jobs and budget lines. Every swipe auto-categorizes against the right client budget — no more chasing receipts at month-end or discovering a $12,000 equipment rental buried on a producer's personal Amex.
The numbers to run a more profitable agency.
Agencies that don't track job-level profitability are guessing at which clients and job types actually make them money. Saturation gives you the data — margin per job, cost per deliverable, client profitability trends — so you can double down on what works and renegotiate what doesn't.
Built for every role in your agency.
From the managing partner reviewing quarterly profitability to the freelance editor submitting a receipt, Saturation gives every stakeholder the right tools and the right level of access.
See every job. Protect every margin.
You're overseeing a portfolio of jobs across a roster of clients — each with different margin targets, billing structures, and reporting expectations. Saturation gives you a real-time dashboard where you can drill into any job, any budget line, any expense, without waiting for a producer to update a spreadsheet.
- Real-time portfolio dashboard across every active job and client
- Margin tracking per job, per client, per producer — catch erosion early
- Production Intelligence that predicts costs for new bids based on your agency's history
What our customers are saying
We run 40+ jobs a year across a dozen clients. Before Saturation, I couldn't tell you the real margin on a job until two weeks after we wrapped and someone finished the reconciliation spreadsheet. Now I check the dashboard mid-production and know exactly where we stand. We've caught margin leaks on three jobs this quarter alone.
