Founding 100

Don't pay us until your clients pay you.

The first 100 production companies run Studio free until a client pays an invoice they sent from Production Engine. At least 90 days, up to a full year. Then Studio is $199 a month for life. AI estimates run on credits you buy, and the bank feed starts with that first payment.

Sounds too good to be true

What's the catch?
We want 100 production companies running real jobs on Production Engine and telling us what breaks. That is the whole trade.
What counts as a client paying me?
An invoice you send from Production Engine that your client pays. Until that happens, you keep getting another month free, up to a year from signup.
Do I need a card?
No. Nothing is charged unless you choose a plan, and your work stays readable and exportable either way.
Can I earn more free time?
Yes. Every production company that claims a spot through your referral link adds another month to your free run, up to the one-year cap. Your link is in your workspace.
What happens at 101?
The offer closes. Everyone after that pays the standard plans below.
