WE MAKE THE PART NOBODY SEES, EASIER.
Before DEADWORK, there were twenty years of productions — as director, producer, editor, and the person quietly holding the whole thing together. The idea for these tools started the day we tried to run an actual 20-person short-film crew, and felt exactly how much of that job has nothing to do with making anything.
We build tools for filmmakers, creators, and small companies who want to make ambitious work without building a massive organization around themselves — technology for people doing the work of an entire crew.
Values
-
01
Kill the tedious work, not the people doing it.
Software removes the repetitive production work so creatives can spend their time creating.
-
02
Idea. Execution. Completion.
The human owns all three. DEADWORK removes the friction between them.
-
03
We don't want AI making the art for us.
We want it doing the tasks that waste time.
-
04
Honest about what's ready.
We label what's shipping and what's still in progress — no polish over a product that isn't there yet.
Commitments
-
We pay artists for every sound. Sound Driver sources real sound design from real artists, and every artist gets paid for the sounds we use — not a flat licensing buyout that cuts them out later.
-
Your footage stays yours. Footage and production data you run through our tools is yours. We don't sell it, train on it without asking, or hold it hostage behind a subscription.
-
No fake numbers. We don't publish invented customer counts, made-up reviews, or screenshots of products that don't exist yet.
