Go with the best: The industry's only all-in-one platform for production payroll and accounting.
Why productions choose GreenSlate over EP
Entertainment Partners:
Fragmented and Inefficient Technology
Fragmented Ecosystem: Using multiple applications (such as SmartStart, SmartTime, SmartAccounting, and SmartPO) forces users to manage the same data in multiple places, creating a cumbersome and potentially error-prone process.
Limited Technology: Multiple standalone applications were built to support old-fashioned paper and PDF workflows, creating redundant data entry across systems. AP documents—such as purchase orders, invoices, and payments—move between different applications, forcing users to repeatedly update and reconcile the same information. This creates unnecessary administrative overhead and may require additional staff to manage workflows.
The GreenSlate difference:All-in-one platform efficiency
GreenSlate delivers an all-in-one platform with a single login, built to simplify production workflows and streamline all your production finance and payroll tasks. Accessible on any device, GreenSlate provides real-time data, cuts inefficiencies, and saves time for production.
* Time savings are estimated based on the actual production experience of accountants working on a project with a $25 million budget. The actual time saved will vary depending on the size of the production and the workflow configuration. GreenSlate works with clients during prep to configure the system and maximize results.
Entertainment Partners:
Numerous fees and restrictive agreements
Added Module and Reporting Costs: Charges additional fees for software modules, reporting, and other services.
Selective Rebates & Exclusivity: Smaller clients often pay more, while larger clients are offered restrictive rebate agreements designed to ensure retention. This approach can lead customers to miss out on high-touch support, innovation, and long-term partnership value.
The GreenSlate difference:Cost-effective and transparent pricing
We take a consultative approach and offer two employer pricing models, Agency and EOR, to ensure the best value for your production. Our straightforward pricing includes all necessary software in the base payroll fee and offers reporting services with no additional costs.
*Savings are estimated using Agency employer model rates that maximize new employer SUI rates. Actual savings will vary by production location.
Entertainment Partners:
Delayed Access + Limited Support = Inconsistent Service
Inefficient Onboarding: Can be complex or time-consuming, potentially contributing to slower project ramp-up and delays.
Inadequate Support: Limited support with insufficient coverage, results in slower responses and potential delays.
The GreenSlate difference:Accessible and responsive
Paymasters work five days a week, ensuring consistent support, while express onboarding gets productions up and running within five days. GreenSlate regularly conducts customer satisfaction surveys to monitor service levels and make improvements.
* As of June 2025. Customer Satisfaction Score (CSAT) measures customer satisfaction on a scale of 1 to 5 based on direct feedback from Qualtrics surveys.
