A complete, insurance-ready report of every piece of kit you own — with photos and serial numbers — is five minutes away, not a weekend of digging through receipts and emails.

The paperwork no producer has time for
Insurance and compliance docs are the job nobody wants — until a shoot won't go ahead without proof of cover, or a case gets lifted from a van and you're staring at a blank claim form. Most production companies find out at the worst possible moment that their "records" are a folder of faded receipts and a half-remembered list. The insurer wants specifics — makes, models, serials, values — and without them the paperwork drags, the shoot waits, or the claim shrinks.
A report in minutes, not a weekend
Asset Giant turns that around. Quick, simple PDF and Excel reports are a couple of taps away, pulling everything you own into a clean, professional document — ideal for arranging insurance or compliance documentation before a project, and for backing up a claim after. It's a five-minute insurance report instead of a weekend of digging, ready whenever a broker, a venue or a client asks. See Export Your Inventory.

Every document, stored with the kit
The paperwork that always goes missing — the operating manual, the receipt, the PAT and test certificates, the SOPs — lives with the asset itself, attached to its record. You never have to hunt for it again. And because the whole crew can reach it, anyone who needs to know how to change that lens without damaging the camera can pull up the manual on the spot, on location. See Document & File Attachments.
Add a reminder to any certificate and Asset Giant tells you before it lapses, not after — so your cover stays current without you having to track renewal dates yourself. See Alerts Before a Date Passes.
Protects what your business runs on
Your kit is the business, and this is how you protect that investment — a live, photographic record that stands up when you need to make a claim, and a level of tracking that makes gear far less likely to walk off a shoot in the first place.
Builds the value of the business itself
Good systems don't just save hassle today — they make the business worth more. Running on efficient, documented processes lifts your profitability now, and if you ever come to sell up, a buyer pays more for a production company with its assets properly recorded and under control than for one run out of someone's head and a shared drive.
A real chance of getting it back
If something is taken, a detailed record — serial numbers, photos, distinguishing marks — gives the police and your insurer something concrete to work with, and a far better chance of recovering it than "a black cine lens, I think it was the 50." That record takes seconds to build as you go, and pays for itself the day you need it. The Manufacturer, Model & Serial and Asset Photos & Gallery features capture exactly what a claim needs.
Damage, deposits and the awkward conversation
The other side of an insurance record is the client-facing one. Photograph a package on the way out and on the way back and both sets sit on the asset, dated, alongside the check-out and return entries — which is what turns a damage discussion into a short, factual one.
When there is a charge to make, it is a line on the same document as the hire rather than a separate letter three weeks later: a saved rate item for damage, cleaning or a missing part. Each item can also carry a security deposit figure that flows through to the paperwork. See Quotes and Invoices.
