Grace
A production operating system.
Grace is the production operating system Obelisk runs on. Built by working filmmakers, in partnership with TDH Systems. Co-pilot, never autopilot — filmmakers stay in command.
Connect everything. Re-enter nothing.
Grace is built around one idea: every department on a film should be working from the same picture. Breakdown feeds schedule. Schedule feeds budget. Budget feeds call sheet. Everything connects, nothing gets re-entered, and no one is working from a stale version.
- One upload changes everything downstream.
- The set dashboard is the schedule, live.
- Cast and crew see only what they should.
Co-pilot, not autopilot.
Every cell, row, and value in Grace carries a colored dot that tells you who made the decision. Blue means Grace suggested it. Gold means a human entered it. Green means it's verified from a signed document.
- Blue · Grace did this.
- Gold · You did this.
- Green · Verified from a document.
Plan the picture before the picture rolls.
Script breakdown that knows scenes and elements. Scheduling and DOOD that pack locations and respect minor hours. A budget that actualizes from purchase orders. A shot list with VFX flags and storyboards. All connected, all live.
Every department, working from the same picture.
Call sheets that build themselves from the schedule. Time cards that prefill from call time + meal duration. A set dashboard tracking actuals against the strip plan. Script supervisor notes, editor log, VFX flags — every department's daily work in one tool.
A co-pilot that knows your production.
The chat panel reads the production state and answers questions in context. Why is this scene's HMU so long? Which crew member's call time conflicts with a turnaround? What's our French-hours exposure today? Trained on industry compliance — IATSE, DGA, SAG, Teamsters thresholds built in.
Send screeners. Stay in control.
Magic-link screener portal with forensic watermarking, device locking, time-bound access codes. DIT pipeline from set offload through dailies delivery. Editorial gets a clean editor log + EDL + FCPXML for turnover.
The unglamorous work, handled.
- Union profiles, built in.
- The right people, the right view.
- Server-rendered PDFs, by the dozen.
- Real software, under the hood.
Built for the people running production.
Currently in beta with a small cohort. Tell us about your production and we'll get you set up.
