About ShootHive

We’re building the production OS we always wanted on set.

ShootHive is the studio backbone for photo and video production teams. Briefs, schedules, crew, locations, releases, and budgets — all in one place, all built around how shoots actually run.

The problem we’re solving

Run a production today, and you’ll touch a dozen tools before the first frame is shot. Spreadsheets for budgets. Shared drives for briefs. Group chats for call sheets. Email threads for releases. Calendars that no one fully trusts.

The shoot happens despite the tools, not because of them. Producers spend more time chasing PDFs than running set, freelancers show up without context, and clients ask questions that no system can answer in less than an hour.

ShootHive collapses that stack into one workspace, modeled around how studios actually work — so the production runs on infrastructure instead of on adrenaline.

Who we’re for

  • Commercial & editorial photo studios
  • Video production companies
  • In-house brand & e-commerce content teams
  • Producers and freelance crew

What we believe

  • Tools should match how shoots actually run.
  • Releases and budgets are not afterthoughts.
  • Your files belong in your storage, not ours.
  • Permissions should match crew structure.

Where we’re going

We want ShootHive to be the operating layer underneath every photo and video production — the place where briefs land, shoots get staffed, releases get signed, and budgets stay honest.

Right now we’re in closed beta with a small set of studios who help us shape what to ship next. If your team runs shoots, we’d love to hear from you.
