I love creating, and I love the outdoors. After running a video production company for years, I knew there was a better way. The problem was that the platform I wanted didn't exist. So I learned how to build software, and I created the platform I always wished existed. After years of using it and honing its features, I'm sharing it with you, my peers and kindred spirits, in hopes that you too can spend less time on redundant tasks and more time doing what you love.
8 years in the making, and we're still going!
In late 2019, after years of running shoots with spreadsheets, text messages, and spiral-bound notebooks, I started building an online estimate builder and project tracker. The goal was simple: stop losing money on bad estimates and stop losing track of projects. It wasn't pretty, but it worked, and it proved the idea had legs.
By 2022 the platform had grown well beyond estimates and project tracking. I started beta testing with a few select production companies and used their feedback and feature requests to shape how Project Binder worked. Real users running real productions surfaced problems I never would have found on my own. Every bug report and feature request made the platform better.
In 2025, after years of feature improvements, third-party integrations, a complete UI overhaul, and a lot of late nights listening to sci-fi soundtracks, Project Binder was ready for a wider audience. SMS crew booking via Twilio, Stripe payment processing, Google Calendar sync, AI-generated documents, and a full inventory management system had all been built, tested, and refined.
After months of stress testing multiple users, accounts, security audits, and edge cases I didn't know existed, Project Binder officially launched in 2026. What started as a solo side project to fix my own workflow is now a full platform built for every production company that's been running their business the way I used to.
When I say "we," I mean Greg and 2 dogs — because it's a team effort after all.
