Yamdu review
A production-focused workspace that connects scripts, schedules, budgets, files, and crews.
Reviewed by iTechGuides Editors · Editorial team · Updated Oct 2026
Yamdu is a cloud-based production management platform for film, television, commercial, documentary, and other media productions. It is designed for producers, directors, production managers, coordinators, and creative departments that need one workspace for scripts, schedules, call sheets, budgets, cast and crew, departments, files, calendars, and time cards. Web, iOS, and Android access support teams working across production offices and locations, while REST API and MCP integrations extend the platform for connected workflows.
Pricing is structured around production scale and administrative needs. Yamdu Flex costs €39 per month on monthly billing and includes script import and breakdown, shooting scheduling, call sheet building, budgeting, cast and crew management, and mobile apps. Yamdu Core costs €239 per month monthly or €179 per month with annual billing, with the same published highlights. Yamdu Signature adds customized users, unlimited projects, customized storage, unlimited external contacts, and optional API access and SSO/SAML. The paid plans are accompanied by a trial rather than a permanent free plan, and the published prices are in EUR excluding VAT.
The platform’s strongest fit is production coordination where specialized tools matter more than generic task management. Script version comparison and AI-assisted tagging support breakdown work; schedules can produce Day Out of Days reports; call sheets can be created, distributed, and tracked; and budgets can connect with production schedules and project data. Shot lists, storyboards, Gantt-style planning, permissions, comments, watermarking, time tracking, and production calendars broaden the workspace. Integrations include Fountain, Google Calendar, iCal, Outlook, Fuzzlecheck, Final Draft, Movie Magic, Showbiz Budgeting, PDF, Celtx, Slack, Zapier, and Lockit Script. Choose Yamdu for structured film and television workflows; teams seeking a permanent free plan or a simpler general-purpose project tool should look elsewhere.
