Core capabilities

Everything you need to stay ahead of deadlines

Six purpose-built tools that give your legal and business-affairs team complete visibility into every obligation.

Obligation monitoring

Track every contractual obligation across your entire deal slate — credit obligations, approval rights, and delivery requirements.

Deadline alerts

Configurable multi-stage alerts notify your team days, weeks, or months before a deadline arrives.

Performance milestones

Monitor box-office thresholds, streaming benchmarks, and other performance triggers that unlock rights or compensation.

Compliance tracking

Confirm obligations have been fulfilled and maintain a timestamped compliance record for every contract.

Calendar integration

Sync milestones to Google Calendar, Outlook, or Apple Calendar so deadlines live alongside your existing workflow.

Automated reminders

Set-and-forget reminder cadences that escalate automatically as a deadline approaches, ensuring nothing slips through.

What it tracks

Every obligation type, covered

Milestone Tracker understands the full spectrum of entertainment-contract obligations — from first-day payments to decades-long sequel options.

Payment milestones

Step payments, deferred compensation, and contingent bonuses tied to production or release events.

Delivery dates

Picture lock, mix deliverables, localization assets, and all post-production deliverables with studio or distributor.

Option windows

Option expiry and exercise windows for underlying rights, sequel rights, and first-look commitments.

Residual triggers

Distribution thresholds and reuse events that trigger guild residual obligations under SAG-AFTRA, WGA, and DGA agreements.

Credit obligations

Screen credit placement, size requirements, and approval rights tied to theatrical and ancillary release dates.

Approval deadlines

Turnaround windows for key-art approvals, cut approvals, and marketing material sign-offs.
