Is FolkAir a fit for your AV or production team?

Best for

  • Production companies running multiple shows per week.
  • AV teams with shared crews, trucks, and kit to allocate.
  • Suppliers working with agencies, venues, and repeat clients.
  • Teams currently juggling Google Sheets, WhatsApp, and email.

Not ideal for

  • One-off private jobs without repeat work.
  • Single-operator freelancers with no shared calendar.
  • Teams that only sell dry-hire kit with no crew.

Weekly playbook: AV & production with FolkAir

Most AV and production teams use FolkAir as the single view that connects briefs, travel pricing, crew allocation, and payouts.

  1. 1. Intake & qualify. Structured briefs capture dates, locations, tech needs, and budgets so producers can focus on shows that fit the rig and crew.
  2. 2. Price & schedule. Travel matrices and templates power quotes, while the shared calendar keeps crews, trucks, and kit correctly allocated.
  3. 3. Deliver & reconcile. Onsite changes, checklists, and milestones feed straight into payouts and margin, so finance sees the same numbers ops do.
