Getting Started

This guide takes you from signing in to a project your team can work in together.

Sign in with a passkey

FilmKit uses passkeys — there are no passwords to remember or leak. On your first visit an account is provisioned for you (or created from an invite), and you add a passkey saved to your device or password manager. On later visits, signing in is a single tap on Sign in with a passkey.

Create a space

A space is your organization's home in FilmKit — a production company, a collective, or just you. From your dashboard, use Create space, give it a name, and you're ready to add work.

Create your first project

A project is a single film, series, or short. Open your space and use Create project to start one.

Invite your collaborators

Add the people you're working with from Space settings → Members. Everyone you invite gets edit access to the space and all its projects, and their edits sync live with yours.

1. Sign in

FilmKit uses passkeys for sign-in — no passwords to remember or leak. On your first visit an account is provisioned for you (or created from an invite), and you add a passkey saved to your device or password manager. On later visits, signing in is a single tap or click.

2. Create a space

A space is your organization's home in FilmKit — a production company, a collective, or just you. It owns your projects and the people who can access them. Everyone you collaborate with regularly lives in a space, so you set access up once rather than per project.

Create a space from your dashboard with Create space, give it a name, and you're ready to add work.

3. Create your first project

A project is a single film, series, or short. Inside a project you'll find the screenplay, scenes, characters, schedule, casting, and storyboards. Open your space and create a project to start writing.

Give the project a name in the New Project dialog and open it to start writing.

4. Invite collaborators

Add the people you're working with as collaborators. Access is managed at the space and project level, so a collaborator sees exactly the projects you've shared with them — and their edits sync live with yours.

There are three ways people take part in a production — as full collaborators, read-only viewers, or crew who only ever receive published documents. The Projects & Spaces guide explains each.
