Comparison
Storeyz vs StudioBinder
Two tools for two different jobs that happen to share a feature name.
Short answer
These tools are not really competing. StudioBinder manages productions; Storeyz manages shot days. If you have a crew arriving at a location at a specific time, you need StudioBinder. If you are the crew, and the question is whether you got everything before you drive home, you need Storeyz.

When to choose something else
- There is a crew, and someone needs to know where to be and when.
- You are working from a script that needs breaking down.
- The production expects industry-standard documents.
- Multiple departments need to see the same schedule.
When Storeyz is the better fit
- You are holding the camera.
- The failure you actually experience is a missing shot, not a scheduling clash.
- You want the plan on your phone during the shoot, not on a laptop before it.
- You run the same kind of job repeatedly and want to reuse the list.
Try it on your next shoot
Storeyz keeps your shots in story order for planning and regroups them by location for the day — then you tick them off on your phone as you get them.
