The Operating System

Made for showrunners who get audited.

We do not pitch capacity. We deliver a documented operating system built for streamer-grade reality and unscripted productions. Every cost line, every permit, every crew injury claim flows through a structured pipeline that survives a network audit.

Audit-ready cost reports
Account-coded, P-coded, weekly tab structure your production accounting team needs from week one. Mark-up column visible, never hidden.
Documented incident pipeline
Crew injury and incident claims handled through a binder protocol, not improvisation. Insurance gaps closed before they become wrap-stage liabilities.
Separate VAT recovery track
RFC, REPSE, and monthly SAT filing structured for the 16% Mexico VAT to actually return to your production. We have run this track on every shoot since 2014.
Compliant local payroll
Crew payments through validated channels. No cash-bag exposure. No surprise classifications when the streamer compliance team asks.
Multi-currency budget management
Costs across MXN, COP, and USD stay on a stabilized baseline from pre-production through wrap. FX movement is managed in reporting, not passed back as a surprise at close.

FIELD NOTE · PUBLIC EDITION
Five risks that quietly drain your LatAm production budget.
Risk 01 · Location Down-Payment FX
When the peso moves between contract and shoot, who absorbs the spread.
Risk 02 · Equipment Transport Insurance Gap
What standard production insurance binders don't cover when equipment moves cross-border without a documented security escort.
Risk 03 · Permit Speed Variance
Why filed and approved aren't the same week, and the new 14-day pre-registration window most teams miss.
Risk 04 · The IVA Hotel Trap
Why booking crew hotels without a conference room quietly kills your tax recovery on the entire stay.
Risk 05 · Talent Immigration Lag
Visa categories, FM3 timing, and the door that closes 14 days out.
