Software for production companies and creative agencies

MODX is management software for video production companies and creative agencies in Portugal and Brazil that connects the brief, quote, contract, production and client approval of deliverables in one flow.

Every project starts with a brief and ends with an approved deliverable. In MODX that path is recorded: the client fills in the brief, accepts the quote and approves deliverables by link, while the team works with visible tasks and deadlines.

  • Built for Portugal and Brazil
  • Works on phone, tablet and computer
  • Free plan available

The problem

What makes a production company's life harder

Scattered briefs

Half in email, half in chat or in a call nobody wrote down.

Approvals with no trail

The client approves a cut by message and weeks later nobody knows which version it was.

No overview of deadlines

Several projects in parallel and nowhere to see who is doing what by when.

Retainers hard to track

It is unclear how much of each client's monthly scope has been used.

Production company software FAQ

What is the best software for a production company?

It depends on how you work. Check whether it covers the full path (brief, quote, contract, production, deliverable approval), whether clients can take part without an account and whether the team sees tasks and deadlines. MODX covers that path in one place. It is not a video editor or heavy file storage, has no native store app and does not issue certified invoices.

Does the client need an account to approve?

No. Brief, quote, contract and deliverables are sent by link and the client responds from it.

How does deliverable approval work?

Each deliverable is sent by link. The client approves, rejects or requests changes, and the decision is recorded.

Can I manage retainer clients?

Yes. Retainers are monthly plans with credits, with the option to roll the balance over to the next month.

Do contracts have e-signatures?

The client accepts the contract by link, with name, email and date recorded. It is not a qualified e-signature.

Does MODX issue invoices?

It does not issue certified or tax invoices. Keep using your certified invoicing software and check with your accountant.

How much does MODX cost?

It depends on plan and country. See current prices on the pricing page.
