_Features_

## Everything the job needs, nothing it doesn't.

Budgets, bid letters, calendars, bid packages, and wrap — one platform built for the real-world workflow of commercial production. No tool-switching, no manual PDF assembly.

_01 — Budgeting_

## The bid, priced the way the industry expects.

AICP, AICP Post, and APA formats built in — from first estimate to actualized budget, with variance tracked to the penny.

### Budget templates

AICP, AICP Post, and APA (UK) built in. Customize once, reuse on every job after.

### Overage change orders

Pick who went over — rates pull from the budget, one click makes a client-ready Overage PDF.

### Rate import

Start a bid from any job you've done. Last job's rates, this job's bid.

### Overtime scenarios

What does the fourteen-hour day cost? Know it before you shoot it.

### Budget options

2-day or 3-day shoot? Build both versions and compare side by side before one goes to the client.

### Schedule-to-budget cascade

Change the day count and every labor line re-prices. As the schedule moves, money follows.

### Copy estimate to working

Job awarded? One button copies a section — or the whole budget — into a live working budget.

### Breakout fringes

One checkbox breaks out P&W with its own row and markup — formatted the way the agency asked.

### Budget sub-items

114 becomes 114a Studio, 114b Park, 114c Home — no renumbering by hand.

### Budget phases

Bidding, Estimate, Working, Actual — the standard lifecycle in one budget, variance to the penny.

### Floating totals

Your total goes where you go — deep in section G it's still on screen.

### Currency conversion

Convert any column of the estimate and view currencies side by side.

### Budget PDF export

Control exactly what the client sees — preset views, custom columns, hidden empty lines.

_02 — Calendar & Schedule_

## The schedule moves. Lineo moves with it.

Production calendars with the moves you already know — and a straight line from the schedule to the budget.

### Calendar dashboard

Every job in one view. See the overlap before it's a problem; filter by project, director, or agency.

### Project calendars

Drag, drop, resize, recolor. LA version and Austin version? Duplicate, tweak, done.

### Event types

Standard event types or your own — production calendars built in minutes.

### Skip weekends

Working days, not calendar days. Drop a day on Saturday and it lands Monday.

### U.S. holidays

One toggle puts every U.S. holiday on every calendar — book around them, not into them.

### Calendar shift

Shoot day moved? Shift the rest of the schedule with it.

_03 — Wrap & Accounting_

## Wrap without the retyping.

Drop in invoices, registers, and receipts — Lineo's AI reads them, previews them, and posts them to the actual.

### Wrap logs

Overage, purchase-order, payroll, and petty-cash logs live alongside the budget through wrap.

### AI PO creation

Drag a vendor invoice and W-9 in — AI fills the PO, attaches the docs, posts the expense.

### AI payroll import

Drop in a payroll register — preview, commit, and the Payroll Log fills itself.

### AI petty cash scanning

Upload receipts — each one lands in its envelope and on the actual in seconds.

### PO statuses

Default and custom statuses show where your wrap stands at a glance.

### Bulk PO export

Filter, select, and export purchase orders in bulk — invoices and W-9s attached.

### Travel tracking

Track travel alongside the rest of the job's spend.

### W-9 compliance

Vendor W-9s collected and accounted for before checks go out.

_04 — Bid Letter & Documents_

## One branded package. No stitching PDFs.

Everything the client sees — budget, letter, calendar — assembled once and always current.

### Bid letter

Import a Word doc, reuse an old letter, or write in the built-in word processor — AI updates it from your project documents.

### Bid package

Budget, letter, calendar, and documents in one branded package. Update the source and the package updates with it.

### Document sharing

Grant access at any level — the whole org, a project, a bid package, or a single budget.

### Custom branding

Add the client's logo, the agency's, and your own — a package that looks like it came from you.

### Package to PDF

One polished, client-ready PDF — downloaded and sent straight to the agency.

### Deliverables reorder

Order deliverables the way the client expects to read them.

_05 — Platform & AI_

## It knows production. And it knows yours.

Multi-player, offline-capable, one touch to sign in — with an assistant that answers from your own job.

### Projects dashboard

One view across jobs — sort by client, agency, or status and find the one you need in seconds.

### Production Assistant

Production answers with sources — then ask about your own POs and budget.

### Bidding Assistant (Coming soon)

AI assistance while building the bid.

### Offline desktop app

No WiFi? The desktop app doesn't care. Work offline; it syncs when you're back.

### Passkey / Touch ID

No password. One touch and you're in, back to work.

### Multi-player

The whole team on the same project at the same time — no crazy file versioning.

### Project overview

Every budget, calendar, letter, package, and document for a job in one view.

### Access panel

Project summary, key dates, downloads, and the Assistant — never more than a click away.

### Status & filter

Preset or custom statuses across projects, budgets, and packages — filter to what's still open.

### Archive & delete

Archive hides, a filter brings it back. Trash holds deletes for 30 days.
