It’s messy. It’s prone to error. And frankly, you have better things to do with your time than wrestle with a calculator.

we asked ourselves: What if managing overtime felt as creative and fluid as the rest of your production?

Today, we’re thrilled to introduce the Overtime AddO: a completely reimagined way to handle the complexities of time and money.

The Visual Revolution

Forget the spreadsheet cells. We’ve built an interface that lets you see your time structure.

With our new interactive slider system, defining overtime isn't a math problem; it's a design choice. You simply drag sliders to define your time blocks. Want to set a standard 10-hour day? Just slide it. Need to add a tier for that grueling 11th hour at 1.5x pay? Add a block and slide it into place.

Splinde visualizes the day for you, turning abstract numbers into a clear, understandable timeline. You can instantly see where standard time ends and premium rates begin.

Genius Under the Hood

The beauty of this new AddOn isn't just skin deep. We’ve rebuilt the engine that powers these calculations to be bulletproof.

In the real world, time is continuous—there are no gaps. We taught Splinde to understand this. The system now models contiguous, non-overlapping intervals. That’s a fancy way of saying: Splinde never drops a minute.

• No Gaps: The end of one rate (say, straight time) is instantly the start of the next (overtime). You never have to worry if minute 59 is accounted for.

• No Overlaps: A single minute can never be double-charged.

• Total Precision: Whether you’re calculating by the hour or by the day, the math is handled with decimal-perfect precision in the background.

You just set the rules. Splinde handles the calculus.

Beyond the Shoot: Prep & Wrap

A production budget lives and dies by the details, and we know that the camera rolling is only half the story.

In 1.4.0, we’ve expanded your control to cover the entire lifecycle of the project. You can now explicitly define Prep, Shoot, and Wrap days for your crew and resources.

This isn't just a label change; it’s a fundamental shift in accuracy. By budgeting these days separately, you get a granular view of your costs. You can see exactly how much you’re spending to get the show on the road versus what it costs to close it out. It’s about giving you the full picture, from the first production meeting to the final invoice.

Why You’ll Love It

We built the Overtime AddOn because we believe tools should empower you, not slow you down. By automating the complex math of progressive pricing and variable rates, we’re giving you back the confidence that your numbers are right.

• Zero Formulas: No more broken Excel equations.

• Instant Clarity: Visual blocks make it easy to explain costs to clients.

• Peace of Mind: The "no-gap" engine ensures every penny is accounted for.
