For set designers
Every prop on the job, in one place.
Propped keeps track of your props through the whole job: what you've found, what's on hold, what you need to buy, what's in the deck, what goes on the van and what's gone back.
One place for you and your team: every prop anyone finds goes straight onto the shared board, seen by everyone at once, so no more sending each other hundreds of pictures on WhatsApp or through shared links. One app, one place.
Inside every job
Built by a set designer, for set designers
Propped was made by a set designer who was tired of keeping track of hundreds of props across prop house websites, email threads, contracts and countless saved screenshots.
It's the tool you want on every job: one place for every prop, from the first idea to the return.
What it does, tab by tab
- Board
Pin props as you browse
The Propped button in Chrome saves a prop from any prop house or shop website: the picture, the name, the price and where it's from. Mark it to hire or to buy. No more endless open tabs.
- Board
One board for each job
Every prop, by scene. Group the board by prop house, status, type, colour or price in one click, and drag pictures into the order you want.
- Board
Contracts, read for you
Upload a quote or contract (PDF, Word or email). Propped reads every line (codes, quantities, prices) and puts the props on your board. It finds the pictures for your deck too, from the contract or the prop house's website: no more saving thousands of screenshots. Smalls you photograph at a prop house go on too, each with its prop house.
- Board
Holds in a few clicks
Propped writes the enquiry email for each prop house, with your dates and the props you want. You send it from your own email.
- Decks
Decks
Build your set design deck from the board in seconds. Drop pictures onto pages, start from your own template, work on it with your team at the same time, present it full screen and export a PDF.
- Final selection
The client's choice
Tick what the client picked. Propped writes the confirm and release emails for each prop house: no need to look through hundreds of product codes. It makes the final deck from the picks too.
- Transport
Van runs
Collection, to and from the shoot, and the return: every stop with its address, opening hours and contact, a route in Google Maps, and a van sheet with no prices on it.
- Pack up
Pack-down and returns
A pack-down list where every prop is accounted for, with its picture and its prop house, ticked off by the whole team and printed for everyone. Return labels for each prop house: no more props sent back to the wrong place.
- Budget
Budget
What each prop house costs, what's been paid, the invoices kept with the job, and a download for billing.
Who it's for
Set designers, production designers and art departments who hire and buy props, and the assistants who work with them. Invite your team to a job and they work on it with you, free.
