The ultimate time-tracking tool for managing creative teams

Managing talent and tracking time on creative projects can be a challenge, especially in industries where bespoke contracts and dynamic workflows are the norm. At CETA Software, we understand the complexities of variable pay rates, contract management, and accurate cost forecasting. That’s why we’re excited to introduce Artist Access—a purpose-built time-tracking tool designed specifically for the creative industries.

Why Artist Access?

Traditional time-tracking tools often fail to meet the needs of studios, post-production houses, and creative teams, where work structures are rarely one-size-fits-all. Artist Access changes that by providing a flexible, intuitive solution for managing artist hours, contracts, and project costs with real-time accuracy.

Artist Access integrates seamlessly with CETA Software’s production management suite, giving studios complete visibility over time tracking, labour costs, and overtime forecasting—helping to streamline workflows and improve budget control.

Key features of Artist Access

Artists and freelancers can log their own hours, even on unassigned projects, improving accuracy and efficiency.

Real-time cost insights

Overtime tracking and predictions

Built for creative teams

“Artist Access directly responds to one of the main challenges our customers face: producing accurate, real-time reporting on variable rates and overtime costs,” says Samuel Edney, Managing Director of CETA Software. “Creative projects are inherently dynamic, and having a platform that adapts to changes is crucial for maintaining budget control and ensuring transparency.”
