Every feature in Stagelog was designed around how stagehands actually work — calls, payroll companies, union rates, and the tax chaos of freelancing.
Log calls with date, venue, employer, and hours. Track straight time, overtime, double-time, meal penalties, and per diem. Everything calculates automatically.
Manage your payroll companies with W-2 tracking, default rates, union affiliations, and contact info. Link them to calls for automatic pay calculation.
Shared venue database with addresses, contacts, local unions, and default employers. Community-built and always growing.
IATSE rates, union rules, and NBF calculations built in. See gross pay, estimated taxes, and net pay before your check arrives.
See your month at a glance — earnings, call count, top employers, and upcoming work. Calendar view shows your call history visually.
Stagelog is a Progressive Web App. Install it on your phone and use it backstage — even without signal. Data syncs when you're back online.
