13 domains · one nervous system

Your whole studio, connected.

A client's first request triggers a chain — quote, contract, deposit, scheduling, production, delivery — where every step feeds the next. You never re-enter anything. You never forget anything. And Leeza watches over the whole chain, continuously.

One job, two different days.

There's the day your clients see — scouting, light, the shutter, the retouching. And there's the other one: the quote to redo, the contract to scan, the deposit to chase, the expired download link, the invoice you chase from memory.

Synaptiik takes care of the second one. Not by adding one more tool, but by removing the re-typing between the ones you already use: information entered once flows to the end of the chain.

The flow, alive

Each domain is a neuron connected to the pipeline. The signals moving across the map are the actions that actually run through Synaptiik — a signed quote that triggers a deposit, a delivery that settles an invoice. Hover a node to see what it automates.

Every client request flows through the same nervous system — hover or tap a node to see what it automates.

Eleven domains, one single flow.

From project management to drone compliance — every module is built for the imaging profession, not adapted from a generic CRM.

The flow, compared

The same order, two chains.

On the left, the usual chain: seven tools, seven re-entries, just as many chances to forget something. On the right, the same job in Synaptiik, where every step is triggered by the previous one.

Without Synaptiik

  1. Request received by email, copied into a spreadsheet
  2. Quote written in a word processor, exported as PDF, sent by hand
  3. Contract printed, signed, scanned, filed in a local folder
  4. Deposit requested by bank transfer, chased manually
  5. Date logged in a separate calendar, never synced with the rest
  6. Delivery via a temporary transfer link, expired by the time the client reopens it
  7. Invoice re-entered one last time, follow-up forgotten

With Synaptiik

  1. The request creates the project and pre-fills the brief
  2. The quote reuses the brief, goes out signed electronically
  3. The accepted quote generates the contract, then the deposit request
  4. Paying the deposit unlocks the slot in the schedule
  5. Production moves forward on the same file, visible to the client
  6. The delivery gallery stays accessible in their portal, not in a link that expires
  7. The balance is invoiced and chased automatically until payment

By profession

Six professions, six production chains.

A wedding isn't run like a packshot, and an aerial drone shoot isn't contracted like a corporate video. Each profession keeps its own constraints — the commercial side, however, stays the same.

Wedding

A contract signed twelve to eighteen months before the date, a deposit to secure, a non-repeatable big day, and a delivery expected long afterward.

The wedding timeline becomes a dated chain: quote, contract, deposit, day-of schedule, selection, private gallery. Every deadline carries its own follow-up.

  • Contract signed electronically at a distance, deposit collected right away
  • Day-of timeline shared with the couple and the second shooter
  • Password-protected private gallery, favorites and print orders
  • Balance automatically followed up at delivery, no reminder to write
Module detail

Corporate & institutional

A contact who isn't the payer, a purchase order, an invoice in an imposed format, and long payment terms.

The project distinguishes the operational contact, the signatory, and the billed entity. Documents flow to the right recipient without re-entry.

  • Order references and cost center carried onto the quote then the invoice
  • Brief validated by the client in their portal, tracked and time-stamped
  • Employees' image rights linked to the project
  • Overdue-payment reminders staged according to your payment terms
Module detail

Product & packshot

A high volume of references, per-unit pricing, and retouching billed separately.

The quote is built line by line and quantified; production follows the same breakdown through to delivery and invoicing.

  • Volume quote lines (reference, angle, cutout, retouching)
  • Progress tracked by batch rather than by monolithic project
  • File delivery in the formats expected by the product sheet
  • Invoice generated from the accepted quote, no re-entry
Module detail

Real estate & architecture

Many properties, routes to optimize, mandates that change, and delivery expected within twenty-four hours.

Each property is a short, geographically planned mission, with a reusable service template.

  • Reusable service templates by property type
  • Route-based scheduling with addresses and access windows
  • Fast gallery delivery with direct download by the agency
  • Batched monthly billing for a recurring client
Module detail

Video & motion

Considerable footage volumes, iterative review cycles, and successive versions not to be confused.

The video project carries its versions: every cut sent to the client is dated, commented on, and replaced without overwriting history.

  • Successive versions kept and clearly numbered
  • Client feedback linked to the relevant version, not an email thread
  • Payment milestones aligned with review stages
  • Separate archiving of masters and delivery files
Module detail

Drone & aerial capture

A service subject to authorization, weather, and documentary obligations enforceable in an inspection.

The flight file lives inside the mission: scenario, authorizations, insurance, on-the-day conditions, and the weather cancellation clause is in the contract.

  • Regulatory documents attached to the mission, not a local folder
  • Cancellation or postponement clause for weather conditions
  • Flight history kept and searchable by mission
  • Billing including travel costs and on-site waiting time

What we're asked first

The legitimate concerns, addressed head-on.

Changing tools costs time before it saves any. Here are the six questions that come up most often, and how things actually stand.

I already work with tools I know.

That's often the real issue: the problem isn't each tool taken on its own, it's the re-entry between them. Synaptiik doesn't replace your editing software or your inbox; it removes the re-typing between the quote, the contract, the payment, the schedule and the delivery. Migration of your existing clients and projects is assisted.

My clients won't want to create yet another account.

The client portal opens from a link received by email: your client validates a brief, signs, pays or retrieves their files without creating anything beforehand. Access stays tied to the project, which avoids expired transfer links.

Does the electronic signature hold up legally?

Synaptiik implements a simple electronic signature under article 25 §1 of the eIDAS regulation: it cannot be denied as evidence solely because it is electronic. Every signature comes with a fingerprint of the signed document and a timestamp, so the document produced can be verified afterward.

What happens to my files if I cancel my subscription?

They remain yours. Your data stays accessible for thirty days after cancellation, giving you time to export projects, documents and files; it is then purged according to your account's retention policy.

I work alone — do I really need a full system?

It's precisely when you're alone that no administrative task gets delegated. The Solo plan covers the entire chain for a single seat: follow-ups, archiving and balance tracking stop depending on your memory.

Is there a free trial?

No. Synaptiik has no welcome offer or trial, and no commitment. In return, the Solo and Studio plans are refundable with no justification within fourteen days of first payment, and within thirty days on an annual commitment.

FAQ

Frequently asked questions about features.

Does Synaptiik work for photographers, videographers and drone pilots all at once?

Yes. All three professions share the same commercial chain — quote, contract, deposit, schedule, delivery, invoice — but not the same production. The video modules (versions, review milestones) and drone modules (flight file, weather and regulatory constraints) exist on their own, without duplicating the commercial side.

Do I need to activate everything on day one?

No. The pipeline works from the quote and contract stage; gallery, scheduling, marketplace and profession-specific modules can be added as you need them. Data entered at the start remains valid for modules activated later.

How does migrating my ongoing projects work?

Migration is assisted: existing clients, open projects and documents are carried over with you, without you having to manually replay the history. Already-delivered projects can be imported as archives.

Can Leeza take action on my behalf without me deciding?

No. Leeza suggests, you decide: every recommendation shows its reasoning, its confidence level and an alternative, and no commercial decision is executed without explicit approval. AI assistance can be disabled, per account and per portal.

Where is data hosted?

In the European Union, on GDPR-compliant infrastructure, with encryption in transit and at rest and strict isolation between organizations. Details of the measures are on the Security & trust page.
