About Tentacal
Tentacal is web-based crew booking software for talent agents and agencies booking freelance film and television production crew. Agents manage crew calendars and availability, create jobs and booking sheets, and place tentative Holds with ranked priorities before confirming a booking. Confirmed jobs sync to crew members’ Google Calendar or iCloud calendars, while Holds stay in Tentacal until confirmed; crew do not need a Tentacal account or app. Through WhatsApp, crew can check bookings, reply to Holds, and submit overtime and unavailable dates for team approval. Tentacal supports multi-day bookings, client challenges, booking rates, and deal memos. Agencies can organize job folders in Dropbox or Google Drive and send client invoices and crew bills to Xero or QuickBooks Online. The agency workspace has one Desk plan, with optional separately billed team seats.
