What you own,
what’s packed,
who has it.
Gear inventory and custody tracking for solo shooters and small production companies. Every item, every case, every job, and a straight answer when someone asks where the 35mm went.
No card. Works on a phone, one-handed, on the back of a truck.
Why this exists
I tracked $60k of kit in a spreadsheet, and it kept lying to me.
It was fine as a list. It was useless the moment gear started moving. It never knew which body was out on a job, who took the wireless kit on Tuesday, or whether the Pelican came back with everything that left in it.
It couldn’t tell me what anything had actually cost me per use, or what it was still worth at tax time. And updating it after a shoot was annoying enough that I stopped, which made it worse than nothing. A list I didn’t trust.
So I built the thing I wanted instead. Simple enough to update from the back of a van, with the pro bits sitting there when you need them: depreciation, hire agreements, condition evidence.
Built by grnded.studio, a video production company in Australia, for people running the same size operation.
Pack the job
A pull list that knows what's already out
Build a manifest from kits, cases or individual items. Tick it off as you pack. Anything committed to another shoot that week shows up before you get to the shelf and find it gone. Print it, or work off the phone.
Hand it over
Every movement, on the record
Gear goes to a person, not into a void, and most of your crew never need a login. Check a whole case out and everything inside it goes with it. Check it back in and the lens returns to the case it came from, without a single extra tap.
Know the numbers
What it cost, what it's worth, how hard it works
Purchase price, effective life and written-down value on every item, both prime cost and diminishing value. Cost per use, worked out from how often it actually goes out. Export the lot as a sheet for your accountant, your insurer, or whoever’s buying the body.
Everything in the box
The rest of it
Cases that cascade
A case is an item, so it can be checked out, nested inside another, and carry its contents with it wherever it goes.
Kits and pull lists
Reusable groupings like the interview kit or the run-and-gun kit. Add one to a job and every item comes with it.
Condition evidence
A fixed set of reference angles per item, then dated photos at handover and return. The baseline is what makes the evidence worth anything.
Sub-rentals out
Rent gear to other shooters with a day or week rate, a due-back date and a late fee, and see what's still owed.
Signed hire agreements
A hirer signs on the phone before the gear leaves. The wording version is stored with the signature, so old hires stay what they were.
Paperwork on the item
Purchase invoices, warranty cards and insurance documents, attached to the body they belong to rather than a folder somewhere.
Service and maintenance
Log a sensor clean or a repair, keep gear marked out of service while it's away, and see what's due.
Locations and home store
Where things live when they're not out: home, storage unit, office, the van. Check-in sends everything back to its own shelf.
Your crew, not your logins
The AC you handed a camera to on Tuesday is a person in the system, not a paid seat. Share a workspace with the people who need one.
The season, in numbers
Shoots and rentals by month, which categories actually earn their keep, and what hasn't moved since last winter.
Export, always
Your whole inventory as a sheet, or one kit, or one body with its history. Yours to take, on any plan, whenever you want it.
Built for a phone
Thumb-first, one-handed, in bad light on a loading dock. Dark by default, with light mode and four accents if you want them.
