Cash management
Screen Radiant

A budget tells you the total. Cashflow tells you when the account runs out.

A $2M budget doesn't spend evenly across 20 weeks. Pre-production burns slowly. Production burns fast. Post burns unevenly. If you don't know when the big spending weeks hit, you don't know when you need the money — and you don't know when you'll run out.

loqyn's Cashflow tool transforms your budget into a week-by-week spending projection across every production phase. Linked to your budget, so when a line item changes, the cashflow updates. The foundation your Drawdown Schedule is built on.

Cashflow builds from your budget and feeds your Drawdown Schedule. Always in sync.

We had the money. We just didn't have it at the right time. Week 6 of production, the account was empty — and the next tranche wasn't due for ten days.

A budget is a total. Cashflow is a timeline. The budget tells you the film costs $2M. The cashflow tells you that $400K of that needs to leave the account in weeks 4 through 7 — and if your funding arrives in week 8, you have a problem that no budget document could have warned you about.

No competitor builds cashflow from the budget. No legacy desktop tool time-phases spending. Every producer who needs a cashflow projection builds it in a spreadsheet — disconnected from the budget, instantly stale when the budget changes, and invisible to the Drawdown Schedule that should be built on top of it.

  • Budgets show totals, not timing — a $2M budget tells you nothing about when the money actually needs to be in the account
  • Cashflow spreadsheets are disconnected from the budget — every budget revision makes the cashflow wrong
  • No budgeting tool — not Movie Magic ($42.99/mo), not any competitor — includes cashflow time-phasing
  • Without a cashflow, the Drawdown Schedule is guesswork — you can't time funding calls without knowing when spending peaks
  • Cash shortfalls during production are discovered in real time — not modelled in advance where they can be prevented

From total budget to week-by-week reality

Cashflow reads your budget and lets you allocate each line item across production phases. The spending projection builds itself.

1

Build your budget

Start with Auto-Budget Pro or build manually. Every line item becomes a row in the cashflow allocation.

2

Link Cashflow to your budget

Connect the tool. loqyn auto-populates every line item and its cost. The data is live — change the budget and the cashflow updates.

3

Allocate across production phases

Distribute each line item across pre-production, production, and post-production. loqyn generates a week-by-week spending projection showing when money leaves the account.

4

Identify cash pressure points

See exactly which weeks have the highest outflows. Spot gaps between spending peaks and funding availability. Use the cashflow to build a Drawdown Schedule that keeps cash arriving before it's needed.
