One System for Production Success

One System for Media Production Success

  • Real-time platform for budgeting, planning, cost control, and reporting

  • AI accelerates workflows, improves decisions, and strengthens cost control

  • Operational and financial backbone keeps teams aligned as work happens

The Problem

An industry stuck in spreadsheets and disconnected tools

  • Budgeting lives in spreadsheets

  • Planning happens elsewhere

  • Execution spans departments and suppliers

  • Handovers create new versions of the truth

  • Cost visibility comes too late

Bottom line: Creative work often ends in chaos, delays, and avoidable overruns.

Why current tools fail

Current tools solve parts of the workflow, not the full chain

  • Spreadsheets are flexible, but fragile

  • Legacy tools are familiar, but siloed

  • Point solutions solve one task, but stay disconnected

  • Financial intent and execution drift apart

  • Reporting comes too late to steer production effectively

Product / Core Workflows

Built for the full production lifecycle

  • Budgeting and scenario planning

  • Offers, approvals, and operational setup

  • Cost tracking and forecasting

  • Dashboards and reporting

  • Role-based collaboration and permissions

Why Tubes is Different

Connects financial intent to execution, supported by AI

  • Most tools stop at documents or isolated workflows

  • Tubes keeps financial and operational reality connected in real time

Benefits:

  • Better control before overruns become expensive

  • Fewer handover errors

  • One shared structure instead of scattered files

  • Stronger data foundation for forecasting and AI over time

Market Opportunity

An industry ripe for modernization

  • Production management software is a high-value global opportunity

  • Launch in EU & UK: >20,000 target companies

  • Designed for international rollout: multi-user, multilingual, multi-currency, compliant

  • International productions need control, collaboration, and multi-entity visibility

Market Context / Why Tubes

  • Production teams still rely on manual processes and disconnected tools

    • Budgeting, planning, execution, and reporting often live in separate systems

    • Existing tools do not cover the full operational chain

    • International productions need more control, collaboration, and visibility

    • Tubes first targets EU and UK, with room to expand internationally

Commercial Strategy

SaaS land-and-expand with modular workflows

  • Low-friction entry via high-pain workflows such as budgeting and cost control

  • Expand into planning, reporting, and adjacent operational modules

  • Value grows as teams, productions, and workflow depth increase

  • Repeatable acquisition and onboarding

Traction

Working product, early validation, commercial momentum building

  • Product is live in a real production context

  • Early market interest and pilot-stage validation

  • Positioning resonates around control and operational visibility

Next steps:

  • Structured pilot conversions

  • Defined commercial milestones

  • Repeatable customer acquisition

Team

Experts in production and SaaS

  • Hands-on experience with RTL and Talpa

  • Proven ability to build scalable SaaS platforms

  • Domain credibility, technical execution, and business generation

  • Turning expertise into products teams adopt

Competition

Tubes wins where workflows break

  • Spreadsheets: flexible, but chaotic

  • Legacy software: trusted, but siloed

  • Point tools: solve one task, but stay disconnected

  • Tubes: one operational backbone across production and finance

Ask

€50k to reach the next commercial milestone

  • Covers operating expenses, targeted business generation support, and limited founder compensation over 6 months

  • Prepares the business for a €1–2M growth round

Goals for this round:

  • Convert market interest into commercial traction

  • Strengthen customer validation

  • Optimize the conversion model for scale

  • Position the business for a larger growth round

The Opportunity

Production is becoming more complex, but operating systems have not kept pace

  • Productions are increasingly international, cost-sensitive, and data-driven

  • Tubes provides the backbone teams rely on

Closing thought:
The market does not need another tool. It needs a system that keeps production and finance aligned in real time.

The Opportunity

Production is becoming more complex, but operating systems have not kept pace.

As productions become more international, cost-sensitive, and data-driven, the need for a unified operational control layer is critical. Tubes provides the backbone production teams rely on.
